This custom home based on our Lodge series will be built on a country road sited between a town forest and a pond. The main level is about 2000, and the center section is the living room with a beamed cathedral ceiling, hallway, half-bath and study. The right wing is the large kitchen and dining area, and the left wing is a master bedroom suite. Both single-level wings and the upper level have our Plaster and Accent Beam Roof System. Upstairs there are two additional bedrooms of about 250 with cathedral ceilings, and a loft that looks down onto the living area below. The 1792 lower level walkout basement is designed as a family room in the center (which opens out to the backyard beyond), surrounded by storage and utility space. The garage, 160 connector, and walkout basement are not included in the above pricing.
We can customize our designs to better fit your needs, and even start a new design from scratch. Garages, walk-out/daylight basements, porches, decks, etc. can be added or removed. Our design service is included as part of the material package price; we do not have a separate architectural or design fee for creating or customizing your plan.
The lower package price assumes more drywall finishes, while the upper price assumes more exposed timbers and wood ceiling finishes. Select the wall system, mid-floor system, and roof system(s) you would like for your project based on aesthetics, budget, and practicality. Our package price can be reduced by removing any of the exterior finish materials that we typically supply (siding/ trim, roof shingles, windows/doors). Note that when shipping outside the northeast almost all packages have those items removed, as shipping them long distances doesn't usually make sense.
Depending on framing options you select, the price could be lower or higher. Pricing is expected to be valid through 2024, but may need to change if there are significant changes in material costs before then (currently an extremely volatile market). Walkout basements and/or garages can typically be added to any home, but are not included in our initial price (whether drawn on plans or not). Prices are based on engineering requirements of up to 90 mile per hour wind speed, up to 65 pound snow load, and low seismic activity zones. Our packages can be adapted for higher ratings; this may result in a higher price. Pricing errors on our site are rare, but a price change for your package may be required if a mistake is found.
