For over 50 years, Yankee Barn Homes has been designing and building custom post and beam homes built with the finest materials for durability, weather protection and energy conservation. The exterior of North Point focuses on colors suited to the timbered shoreline. Rich gray/brown hues are accented by wood tones in the gable features, garage doors, and back deck.
The use of black window trim is a stroke of genius as it creates subtle, yet noticeable contrast. The back of the house is a show unto itself. Walls of windows, a decorative gable feature, two large decks, and a cupola combine for a look that is both understated and showy. The interior is stunning.
From the moment you enter the front door, you are greeted with post and beam beauty. The open floor plan allows a feast for the eyes that culminates in a spectacular view of the lake out the back windows. As with most things, it is always your last interaction which leaves you with your final impression.

Critical: Professionalism, Responsiveness
First impressions are lasting impressions. I was so excited to find Yankee Barn Homes and did all my research. Finally decided to call and WOW!! Rude, un professional and basically could not be bothered to even say her name. Sorry, but I will take my money and business to another company.

Beware. Seller provides only small sample of speculative staining direction for the post and beams, while end result may wind up very different from the sample. YBH promised us grey tone beams, which when stained and shipped appeared distinctly blue. Up to the CEO level the company was quite defiant that the stain was similar to the small sample mailed to our home. Long story short it's quite a gamble to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a post and beam kit, and then have little recourse when the product isn't as promised. Unless you are comfortable with natural only, you may be stuck with

Our home we recently purchased is a Yankee Barn Home originally built in the 1980s. We bought it knowing nothing about the company or these types of post and beam houses until much later in the closing process. Despite no renovation other than regular maintenance, the house has held up beautifully to the elements all these years. We had a thorough home inspection top to bottom and it passed with flying colors. The inspector noted its superior construction and materials as a large reason why it had held up so well. It had appreciated a lot in value since the 80s and more than similar homes that

Our family is arriving at our move in date for our amazing Yankee Barn Home this fall! We began at Bensonwood, and just could not get our needs met there. We have been nothing but pleased with the quality of workmanship, high level energy efficiency, and creative design put forth by YBH. Jon Sevigny listened to all of our wants and concerns and delivered exactly the design we had envisioned. Andrew Martin and his construction crew worked with an eye to precision, neatness and quality execution of the design. I have read 1 other review concerning Andrew Button, he is no longer with YBH. He

We presented a custom design and asked to have it converted into a YBH. Our experience with the engineers was comfortable, friendly and helpful. The site coordinator sent to help our contractor build our new YBH was also helpful and not afraid to get his hands dirty. Our contractor said it is the strongest home he has ever built and he had experience with another type of post and beam construction. We are very happy with our home and with our experience with YBH. Thank you.

Our experience with Yankee Barn Homes from the professional approach to their business, the excellent architectural service right through to the finished product was commendable. We choose a Vermont vernacular design which at the time was a deviation from the standard Yankee Barn Designs but they created a post and beam design version that met all our criteria. During the building process there were a few details that needed to be changed, modified or corrected and YBH responded with the best cooperation we could have hoped for.
Yes, we highly recommend YBH!

After much time spend in back country and national park lodges, the decision to build a timber frame home came easily for our family, it just fit our personalities. After that, we did what seemed to be endless research before making a decision regarding builders across the country. Selecting Yankee Barn Homes was the best decision we could have made.
