Timber Frame Homes

10 Stunning Vignettes Created By A Yankee Barn Homes Timber Frame

Post & Beam HomesBy Holly OstranderDecember 15, 2011

The timber frame structures of Yankee Barn Homes are unique not only in their clean lines and authentic historical reference but, more importantly for this blogger/post and beam home owner, due to the stunning vignettes created by their frames. My carriage house is small, yet I’ve lost count of the number of interesting views which…

A Barn Style Home By Yankee Barn Homes Nears Completion

FarmhousesBy Holly OstranderNovember 21, 2011

Although this house is not yet finished, I wanted to share a few scouting photos with you as this post and beam barn home has some very nice architectural features.  I love the front porch of this home as you rarely see a hipped roof on a porch these days. It is a perfect way…

Follow A Barn-Style Contemporary Farmhouse As It Goes From Design To Completion

Barn HomesBy Holly OstranderNovember 3, 20111 Comment

A few weeks ago in a blog entry titled A Post & Beam Barn Addition Gets “The Full Contemporary” Treatment , I highlighted a barn home addition located in the rolling hills of Connecticut. I mentioned the structure was the result of a creative collaboration between Yankee Barn Homes, a premier post & beam home and barn building company, and Dan Bristol…

Best Post & Beam Guest House EVER!

Post & Beam HomesBy Holly OstranderOctober 31, 201111 Comments

I’ve done several posts on guest quarters and guest houses over the years, but this little timber frame beauty is by far my favorite to date. Perfect as either a guest house or a little “get-away” place for two (it can actually accommodate up to six, with help from a pull-out couch), this Yankee Barn…

A Fantastic Timber Frame Under 2000 Square Feet

Mountain HomesBy Holly OstranderOctober 25, 20111 Comment

This Yankee Barn Homes cottage sits on the shores of Lake Sunapee, NH.  To be more precise, the delightful little post & beam sits on an island in the middle of Lake Sunapee. The best part of this timber frame is, from bottom to top, it comes in at 1,994 totally usable square feet. A rectangle with full…

A Pastoral Setting For A Handsome Barn Home

Barn HomesBy Holly OstranderOctober 14, 2011

I don’t know what it is about Connecticut and gorgeous scenery, but it’s an undeniable fact; the state certainly has it! If you’re lucky enough to get your hands on a great piece of property, no matter where it might be, you’ll be certain to think long and hard about the type of structure that best…

A Post & Beam Barn Addition Gets "The Full Contemporary" Treatment

Barn HomesBy Holly OstranderOctober 11, 20111 Comment

Nestled in the rolling hills of Connecticut is a barn and silo with spectacular views; a bucolic New England scene to be sure. Our for-bearer’s really knew what they were doing when they built these places hundreds of years ago. While all this is true in theory, it’s not the truth for this particular home. Nothing…

A Yankee Barn Timber Frame On The Rugged Coast Of Maine

Post & Beam HomesBy Holly OstranderOctober 7, 2011

These two things fit together like hand and glove. A Yankee Barn Home and the rugged coast of Maine. Nothing says “Downeast Maine” like a post and beam structure with the words “Yankee Barn” in the title. But don’t take my word for it, see for yourself. This award-winning home was built keeping its surroundings in mind. Even…

For those of you who may not have heard me mention it about a ga-zillion times in past posts, my daughter, husband and I have written a book titled POST & BEAM DREAMS. It is specifically geared for those of you who are building, adding on, dreaming, or updating a post and beam home, but need a…

Building A Carriage House In Today’s Economy

Barn HomesBy Holly OstranderAugust 2, 20118 Comments

Economic times are rough right now. None of us needs to be reminded of this fact. However, swinging to the extreme of going into “lock-down” and behaving as if it’s the end of the world is not healthy for us or the economy. So, let’s take a look at the middle, as this is often where common ground and reasonableness are found.…

A Post & Beam Farmhouse In The Brandywine River Valley

Barn HomesBy Holly OstranderJuly 12, 2011

I’ve actually had quite a bit of first hand experience with this particular Yankee Barn Homes timber frame farmhouse. It’s located in the countryside of Pennsylvania and I often stayed in this house while visiting the greater Philadelphia region. To say it’s special would be grossly understating the obvious. The house sits on a hill…
