The Barn Yard Blog

With a post & beam barn kit, you can create your own unique space through customization. This 42' x 42' Belmont Saratoga Barn is a great example. We worked with the customer to design his ideal barn, and sent it out to his location as a kit. From there, he worked with his crew to raise the frame independently, and sourced many exterior components himself. The standing seam metal roof and barn red board & batten siding, supplied by others, enhances the natural color of the timber accents, & wooden doors that we provided with the kit. This barn has a 12' x 48' open timber frame lean-to, as well as two timber frame eyebrow roofs above the windows on the gable side. Sleek black windows provided by others let light into the barn, including in both of the 12' functional transom dormers. 

We are excited to announce that our full build services have expanded to include all of New York! Complete design-build services for post & beam barns, conventional garages, timber frame pavilions, and commercial projects are now available throughout the entirety of New York state, as well as New England.

The bright colors of autumn surround this 28' x 36' Newport Garage in northern Massachusetts. This conventional garage has three overhead doors, a reverse gable dormer, and timber frame accents that elevate its appearance. The customer finished the interior of both floors, creating a unique space that will suit their needs for years to come. 

This customer turned the second floor loft of their 26' x 30' Plymouth Carriage Barn into the “Hilltop Motel” guest quarters. This post & beam barn, set in the rural Vermont countryside, is surrounded by fall foliage. Features such as a timber frame eyebrow roof, open lean-to overhang with hip roof, transom dormer, and copper top cupola enhance this barn’s appearance. The 1x10 pine shiplap siding, along with some of the timbers in the eyebrow roof & open lean-to, have been painted beige, contrasting with the darker shingles and warm toned overhead doors. Andersen 100 Series windows throughout the barn fill the post & beam interior with natural light. Read on for a photo tour of this timber frame barn.

The Teton Timber Frame Pavilion, featuring king post trusses with arched bottom chords, is a great place to relax and take in the outdoors. Larger timber frame pavilions are great for commercial and municipal uses, like this one at a camp in Northeast Connecticut. Authentic mortise & tenon joinery with hardwood oak pegs, large timbers, and scrolled rafter tails are some of the intricate details that campers & staff appreciate about the Teton Pavilion. The 10-12 roof pitch and 8'6" post height leave plenty of space underneath for camp events & gatherings. 

Authentic post & beam construction, high-end design, and attention to detail come together to create the ultimate poolside retreat in this 20' x 32' Montauk Pool House in Rhode Island. A bright exterior, with white siding and a metal roof, highlights the simplicity and elegance of the backyard oasis. Inside, the intricate design of the timber frame pool house is on display, with a clear span parallel chord timber truss design. Grab a drink at the “Ocean Club” bar, and relax & unwind in the central seating area.
