Early New England Homes (ENEH) has been a trusted provider of pre-engineered post-and-beam colonial homes since 1974. Based in Eastern Connecticut, we bring the timeless beauty of colonial-period architecture to homeowners who appreciate New England’s historic charm. Our pre-cut home kits feature four classic designs: Cape Cod, Saltbox, Gambrel, and New England Colonial.
Each of our post-and-beam homes is carefully designed to replicate the 18th-century New England houses that still grace the countryside today. Moreover, by working closely with local builders, we ensure that every home reflects traditional craftsmanship while offering modern functionality. Additionally, each home is fully customizable to fit your unique vision and lifestyle.
Customization and Modern Conveniences
Select from our exclusive Options Package to enhance the colonial charm of your interior. Our customization options include:
- Hand-planed beadboard paneling and beaded wainscoting

- Pre-hung four-panel doors, board & batten doors, and a storm door option
- Wide-board flooring and baseboards for a period-correct aesthetic
- Fireplace mantels and hand-forged interior hardware to complete the colonial look

A Timeless Home with Lasting Character
No two ENEH homes are exactly alike. Each house is designed to reflect the unique character of its surroundings while maintaining the architectural integrity of colonial-era homes. The large summer beams and timber ceilings bring a warmth and authenticity rarely found in today’s modern construction.
