Why Choose Yankee Barn Homes
Choose Yankee Barn Homes because for over 50 years, we have been designing and building custom post and beam homes built with the finest materials for durability, weather protection, and energy efficiency. Our True Wall and True Roof™ Panels are built in our Yankee Barn Homes factory located in New Hampshire and offer total design and integration of your home shell package with your floor plan and post & beam frame. We have built homes from coast to coast and overseas. Due to our panelized construction, we can access remote areas and ship just about anywhere.
Building a home can be an investment, a labor of love, and a vision manifested. Finding the right team can make all the difference. We work closely with our clients and utilize software for virtual meetings, 3D walk-throughs and renderings of your home design. We provide a project management portal to facilitate progress during the entire design and build process. Our team of dedicated professionals will assist you through pre-design, design, and construction while working with your local general contractor to ensure a smooth delivery and assembly of your home.
