The Westport: 24' x 40' Coastal Timber Frame Residence

This timber frame residence designed to provide 2,000 square feet of elegant, high-performance living space. Perfectly suited for the Maine coast, this design features an open-concept cathedral space and expansive windows that invite the outdoors in. The thoughtful layout includes master-style bedroom and bath suites on both the first and second floors, complemented by a versatile third-floor attic for storage. With a full daylight basement providing additional living quarters and a potential workshop with a view, the Westport is a complete residential solution. Enclosed in a super-insulated SIP envelope, it offers a bright, sustainable, and timeless sanctuary.

We hope you enjoy the photos as much as we enjoyed creating this very special BungalowInABox.
