The new barn home dining room actually has nothing to do with the fact the room is new; we all know dining rooms have been around for ages. What is new are the options available to new-build homeowners. Here at Yankee Barn Homes, we’ve seen just about every configuration you might imagine, from separate, formal…
I have never seen this Yankee Barn Homes post and beam kitchen in person. However, looking at these pictures gives me a pretty clear idea of how much fun is had in this kitchen. Designed to suit any event, from getting a cup of coffee to hosting a large group, this kitchen can handle to…
Choosing an interior decor for a barn house can be daunting. Some might feel the need to adhere to a certain time period or style. Not in the 21st Century. The key to today’s practical approach in choosing interior decor is this: eclectic rules. Go with your gut when choosing your decor; from kitchen appliances,…
This barn style home, built by Yankee Barn Homes on Lake Charlevoix, Michigan, is simply stunning. Built with the idea of complimenting it’s surrounding topography, the barn house is both unassuming and eye-catching, all at the same time. On the interior, the homeowners did a wonderful job of blending their love of the Early American…
Barn houses plus Crown Point Cabinetry work together in complete harmony. The very idea of a Yankee Barn post and beam structure begs for a certain type of kitchen; one which is simply gorgeous. Nothing with too many frills attached; simple, yet elegant, is the rule of thumb here. This is not to say these…
We have chronicled our barn house English Cottage since it began this past winter, and now we have finally reached the completion of this beautiful post and beam home, located in East Hampton, NY. The wait was most definitely worth it. From the amazing kitchen to the lofted family room, every space you see will…
This Yankee Barn in Western New York is an interesting combination of New England Victorian (the exterior) and Greek Revival and Second Empire (New York) styles (the interior). With city and town names such as Ithaca, Syracuse and Cortland surrounding this post and beam, it makes sense the latter two styles would influence the interior…
This Yankee Barn cottage on Lake Champlain is pretty near perfect. The body of the house is not all that large, yet the building has space for everything you’d need in a lakeside cottage. The best feature is the fantastic wrap around screened-in porch that faces the lake. Used by day as a place to have…
Barn home kitchen styles might conjure up thoughts of a rehabbed barn with unfinished beans and a country style kitchen in one corner of the open space. While this is one way to go, and many did so in the 1970’s, post and beam kitchens have come a long way since the ’70’s. At Yankee…
This barn home has been featured once before in Post and Beam Living. However, seeing as I’m currently focusing on homes designed by Jeffery Rosen, Creative Director at Yankee Barn Homes, I felt it well worth another look. This house is the epitome of an unadorned barn style, but don’t be misled by the use…
You may have recently read a post or two from us in which the name Jeffery Rosen has been mentioned. This is because Jeffery has joined the Yankee Barn Homes family as the Creative Director. To use the word creative in combination with Jeffery may actually be understating. Jeffery has had 25 years in the…

Jeffery Rosen, both architectural designer and interior decorator for this project, has…
