The influence of early Acadian architecture spans from the Fundy peninsula to the southern United States. Steep-gabled roofs were simple to engineer and helped prevent the accumulation of snow in harsh winters. Additionally, a covered front porch made the house popular when the East Coast experienced warm summers. Over time, the Acadian style has been modernized with cross-gabled roofs for garages, additional living space, and open floor-plan basements, but the tradition remains timeless!
Bungalows boomed in cities across Canada and the United States when transcontinental railways and assembly-line automobiles brought times of rapid growth and development. While each region seemed to develop its own style of bungalow, the long, narrow orientation first inspired by the homes of Bengal, India stayed relatively consistent. Bearing a resemblance to our beloved covered bridges, we’ve named this style after the longest covered bridge in the world located right here in New Brunswick!
The floor-plans above are so popular that we are able to confidently work ahead excavating and framing houses to provide the most economical homes to our clients, however we have earned our reputation as a design-builder by creating spaces for unique family needs.
Timeline varies with design and season, but our "Turn-Key" process takes half the time as Traditional Design-Bid-Build. We may even have a old design or two that would work for you and get you in your new home sooner.
