The Cape Kit Home

Early New England Cape Cod-Style Home

Our 1750s-style center chimney Cape sets the standard for all our early New England Homes. Our classic Cape Cod is a beautifully sustainable home that showcases that period’s beauty. This house kit has a hearth at the center of the open floor plan on the first floor and details that revive the charm of the 18th Century today.
