Vacation & Luxury Modular Home Floor Plans in Western PA

A Chalet-style home is known for its rustic look, steep gabled roofs, and a dramatic two-story great room with vaulted ceilings. Its signature feature is often an expansive wall of "vista glass" windows designed to capture scenic views, making it perfect for lots with a view.

Our log-style homes provide the authentic aesthetic of a log cabin with superior performance. We use high-quality log siding over a conventionally framed, highly insulated wall. This gives you the classic rustic look while ensuring modern energy efficiency and avoiding the maintenance issues of traditional log construction.
