Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a timber frame home cost in Virginia?

Timber frame homes in Virginia typically range from $250 to $450+ per square foot fully finished, depending on wood species, frame complexity, and site conditions. Hearthstone delivers projects from $400,000 to $10 million+.

What is the difference between timber frame and stick frame?

Timber frame uses large posts and beams with mortise-and-tenon joinery, creating open spans without load-bearing walls. Stick frame uses dimensional lumber in stud-wall systems. Timber frame costs more but delivers superior longevity, design flexibility, and aesthetics.

How long does timber frame construction take?

A custom timber frame home in Virginia typically takes 14 to 22 months from design through completion. Timber frame fabrication requires 8 to 12 weeks of lead time.
