Pricing Information

In general, a partially timber-framed home, such as our model, will cost about 15% more than a high quality custom built, stick- framed house. A fully timbered home will cost approximately 20-25% more than a conventional custom home. Actually, 15% for a partially timbered home is a small number considering the unique one of a kind beauty, limitless decorating options and the hand crafted labor that goes into the timbered joinery.

Based on the number of admirers that the North Woods Model receives from the lake boaters, all the unique one of a kind exterior features of the timber frame deck and kingpost set in stone columns, were well worth the cost.

An owner/contractor that has true experience of working as a general contractor can expect to save in the 10-15% range over a fully contracted price. If an owner had the skills and time to devote a significant amount of his own labor in the actual building process, they could expect to save in the range of 20-35% of the total contracted price. If this appeals to an owner and you have the skills and time we would be glad to work alongside and support either of these approaches.
