Our 3-Step Design Process – including creative design and structural engineering services — strives to achieve the timber frame home you’ve always dreamed of, within budget. It is hard to choose a builder/ designer however when we met this talented family we knew right away that this family was the right fit for our family build. The features of our Post and Beam log home surpassed any of our expectations. The experience of picking some of our logs was exceptional and with the Artisan families imagination, we couldn’t be happier. The family and crew were always supportive and responsive before, during and after our build. You can expect to pay approximately $70-95 CAD a square foot for the shell and up to $405 CAD for finishing costs.
This style typically uses larger diameter logs and is the best log system to meet strict energy codes. One thing to remember with post and beam construction is it is more expensive than a standard construction home or a milled log home. The timber work is all fully precut and formed with mortise and tenon joints etc.
LET’S WORK TOGETHER To Find a Custom Home Design that You LOVE
Cedar Design's goal is to make the buying and building of our prefabricated homes, custom cedar homes, or post and beam homes an experience as rewarding as living in your new custom dream home. We invite you to take a look at the features and benefits of our timber frame home, post and beam homes or prefabricated homes kits. You will see rich, natural materials, floor to ceiling windows, dramatic rooflines and harmoneous living spaces. Today’s cedar houses are precisely built to accommodate a wide range of house plans and designs. Custom-built cedar homes have open floor designs, high ceilings, flexible rooms, low-maintenance materials, and other features that make buying a custom house more inviting.

With varied materials, we create timeless works that demonstrate our commitment to quality and craftsmanship in both design and construction. Post and beam construction is the most flexible style when it comes to design and construction. Location of your log home will definitely influence the design as well as the logs we would recommend for your new house. If you are located in a very damp environment or one that is known for wood-boring insects, we would recommend western red cedar logs, for example. Each of our plans were originally imagined using one of our product lines, however, ANY of our plans can be redrawn as a log post and beam home.

At Mill Creek, we have taken the very best of centuries-old woodworking and joinery and combined it with state-of-the-art modern technology to create timber frame homes and buildings that will stand for centuries. Inspired by the country homes and barns of yesterday, a Mill Creek home combines thoughtful design and craftsmanship while maintaining old world charm and style.

They think they might want a log or timber home but the very features that make them so special and unique the owner cannot bring himself or herself to ‘splurge’ on. Let me put in bluntly, you either want a timber home that FEELS like a timber home, or you should save your money and go build a conventional home. A post and beam cabin would be something under 1000 square feet or 1500 square feet. It would probably have four exterior corners, a half loft, and a small great room.
Blended into one beautiful incredibly long lasting package which you can purchase for much less than you would imagine!
