Nice!
My upstate cabin is 20 X 24, but 2 stories high. It replaced the 12 X 20 one story high that just never seemed big enough if you had more than 2 or 3 people. We insulated the walls on the second floor. The upstairs is for sleeping and playing cards.
We are off the grid (in the Catskill Mtns, 2,200 feet up) and have a 55 gal woodstove for heat and solar panels for electric lights.
The frame is post and beam Ash (milled with the chainsaw), but the outside is just stained 5/8" plywood with a layer of cement board around the bottom to protect it from the porcupines.
