Build a dream home with a distinctively different style using our Gambrel house kits in Brookfield, CT. If you love the charm of early New England homes, you’ll love what we offer. Early New England Homes provides plans and pre-cut Gambrel-style home kits, making it easy to create a classic yet functional design. The oldest known Gambrel roof in America, built in 1677 on the grounds of Harvard University, showcases the long history of this architectural style. Often called a “barn house” due to its dual-sloping roof, the Gambrel design offers both beauty and practicality. The shallow upper roof and steeper lower slope maximize attic space, adding extra height and versatility.
Based in eastern Connecticut, Early New England Homes brings back the charm and craftsmanship of 18th-century New England houses. Our post and beam home kits reflect the style and character of classic Colonial architecture. Specializing in Cape Cod, Saltbox, Gambrel, and Colonial-style homes, we work closely with local builders to ensure authenticity and quality. Plus, every home is fully customized to fit your needs.
One standout feature of our homes is the Options Package. Choose from hand-planed beadboard paneling, beaded wainscoting, and custom trim. Our kits also include pre-hung four-panel doors, board and batten doors, and a storm door option. Wide board flooring and baseboards complete the timeless look, while fireplace mantels and hand-forged interior hardware add a touch of historic elegance.

Early colonists built their homes using beams from the surrounding forests, giving each structure a unique character. Today, our early New England-style homes continue that tradition, bringing warmth and history to any setting. Ready to explore the possibilities? Visit our Gambrel Homes page to learn more.
