Space Hacks in 3 Bedroom Log Cabins


Visualise the rustic appeal of living in a charming 3 bedroom log cabin nestled in the tranquil heart of nature. Whether it’s a family home, a cosy retreat, or a rental opportunity, the versatility and beauty of log cabins are undeniable. But, creating a functional and delightful living space in these timbered wonders can sometimes require a touch of creativity. In this blog post, we'll delve into space hacks that can transform 3 bedroom log cabins into marvels of design efficiency.

Embrace Your Space: The Beauty of Log Cabin Living

The aesthetics of residential log cabins go beyond just their wooden allure. They offer a unique lifestyle characterised by comfort and connection with nature. But, just like with any home, the key is to make the most of the space available. Here, we will focus on various cabin sizes including 1 bedroom log cabins, 2 bedroom log cabins, 3 bedroom log cabins, and even 4 bedroom log cabins to provide insights on maximising space.

Visualising Versatility: Inside a 3 Bedroom Log Cabin

Imagine stepping into a 3 bedroom log cabin. It feels like a spacious sanctuary, yet maintaining a cosiness only found in cabins. These cabins are ideal for small families, providing individual rooms for children or guests while maintaining ample general living space. Let's dive into some strategic hacks to fully optimise every square metre.

1. Multi-Functional Furniture

In smaller cabins, every piece of furniture must earn its keep. Convertible sofas or Murphy beds can transform a simple living area into an additional sleeping space. Employ dining tables with extendable leaves or nest a set of tables to offer extra surface space when needed but can be tucked away to open the floor when not in use.

Explore our 3 bedroom log cabins collection to find inspiration in designs that effortlessly incorporate such furniture for optimal space efficiency.

2. Utilise Vertical Spaces

Cabins often feature high ceilings. Take advantage of this by installing shelves, hanging plants, or even a suspended reading nook or swings. Use tall bookcases and racks that reach towards the ceiling for storage without compromising more of your limited floor space.

3. Smart Storage Solutions

Hidden storage spaces in furniture or DIY solutions like built-in benches or window seats with compartments can save the day. Incorporating wardrobes that stretch to the ceiling can help store more without taking up much visual space, maintaining a neat and open vibe within the cabin.

4. Open Floor Plans

MOTRIL 8.7x6.0m Log Cabin

Utilise open floor plan designs that seamlessly connect your kitchen, dining, and living areas. This setup not only maximises space but also allows for a dynamic and sociable living environment. A log cabin like the Motril 8.7x6.0m is a perfect example of an open floor plan that provides flexibility.

Incorporating Essential Cabin Features

While space hacks can make a cabin feel bigger, understanding and integrating the essentials of a cabin can highlight its beauty.

5. Aligning with Nature

6. Efficient Insulation and Lighting

Log cabins have unique insulation properties due to their log walls, but ensuring additional insulation via eco-friendly materials can enhance comfort. Strategically placing reflective surfaces can amplify natural light, making rooms feel larger and airier.

Upgrading to a new cabin or adjusting an existing one doesn’t have to be a herculean task. At Northern Log Cabins, we ensure that the delivery and installation process is smooth and efficient.
