Timber Frame Additions

All the elegence of a timber frame, but easier on your budget

 

If you love the beauty and elegance of a timber frame home, but aren't able to start from scratch on a timber frame home, an addition from Woodhouse is a great option for you. You may already love your home but need more room, or you just want to add the beauty and craftsmanship of mortise and tenon joinery to your home. It's a great way to add more space and more value to your investment. The most common additions people seem to request are large, cathedral timber frame great rooms with a large master suite included.

 

The first step in the process of building an addition with Woodhouse is to contact your Regional Project Manager. It's very helpful to send him some photos of your home and explain the general idea you're thinking of for your addition. Determine which part of your home you'd like to expand upon.

 

The trickiest part of constructing a timber frame addition is making it "mesh" with the rest of the home. The goal is to make it look like the timber frame section has always been there. There are several important factors to consider including roof lines, accessibility, and site conditions. That's why it's important that your Regional Project Manager visit your home and complete a walk-through of your property. They'll take some rough field measurements and sketch out your project. If you decide to build, you'll work with both your project manager and our in-house architect to turn your home into the home of your dreams.
