About the Heritage Farmhouse

Inside, warmth and texture continue throughout the main living spaces. A custom wood tray ceiling adds depth and architectural interest to the entry, while exposed wood beams in the dining room bring a sense of heritage and craftsmanship that anchors the space. These natural elements are carefully balanced with clean lines, light finishes, and modern detailing to create an interior that feels both refined and inviting.

Designed with long-term comfort and accessibility in mind, the home includes a residential elevator that travels from the basement to the second floor. This feature allows the homeowners to move easily between levels and ensures the home can adapt gracefully to changing needs over time.

Functionality is a key theme throughout the design. The laundry room features custom cabinetry that provides generous storage and an organized workspace, turning a utility room into a practical and well-finished part of the home. Built-in storage solutions appear throughout, maximizing usability without compromising aesthetics.

Behind the scenes, the home is engineered for efficiency and year-round comfort. A forced-air heat pump system provides reliable heating and cooling, while ample insulation throughout the building envelope helps keep heat in during the winter and out during the summer. The result is a home that is not only comfortable in all seasons but also energy-efficient and cost-effective to operate.

This project reflects Reimer Construction’s commitment to quality craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and building homes that are made to be lived in—and enjoyed—for generations.

Blending the rustic charm of yesteryears with today’s modern amenities, Reimer Construction presents a farmhouse like no other. The sleek board and batten exterior is offset by an advanced elevator system. Inside, the character shines through with authentic beams reclaimed from a former barn on the property and a historic newel post gracing the central staircase. Coupled with contemporary finishes, fixtures, and open spaces, this home is a harmonious amalgamation of tradition and innovation.

  • A pleasure to work with

    Joel and the crew were a pleasure to work with. As a late fall/early winter roof restructure, they ensured we were protected from the wind and rain, even staying late on a couple of evenings as unexpected weather moved in. They were on time, efficient, and offered options for the unforeseen problems that arose throughout the project. Highly recommended.
