The Yankee Barn Homes Difference

With over 50 years of experience, Yankee Barn Homes has mastered designing and building high end custom post and beam homes. We use a combination of structural Doug fir and traditional dimensional framing allowing us the flexibility to design homes with full, partial, minimal structural or no post and beam frame. Our homes are technically superior to other building methods in energy efficiency while maximizing your desired aesthetic and vision.

We would love to assist you with your journey to POST. BEAM. DREAM.
