This hand hewn spec. house is in Hunter, New York. Vermont Timber Works provided a gambrel style timber frame cut from native material for this residential client.
We worked with designer and general contractor Mark Jupiter on this wonderful project.
All of our frames are handcrafted to meet exact project requirements, and we enjoy working with our clients to make sure the details – from design to finish – are just right.
With over 26 years of experience designing, engineering and building custom timber frames, we can assure our clients that our frames are the best in the industry.
If you like this timber frame home, or have timber work questions, we invite you to get in contact or ask an expert!

SEE THE DRAWINGS & PLANS
The timber frame design process involves a series of sketches and review with the client and their architect — including a 3D model of the frame — until there is an approved final design. With the final design, detailed 2D shop drawings are created and used to fabricate the frame.
