Logangate Prefab Chalet homes follow some of the traditional Swiss Alps architecture. Key features include steep sloping roof with longer overhangs at the eaves and the gable ends and a prow front. Our roof overhangs can be customized from 1 to 2’ on the eaves and up to 4’ on the ends of the home. These overhangs not only provide architectural style but also protect the home from wind, rain, and snow.

The Key Feature of our Prefab Chalet homes is the Prow front. The Prow is at the gable end in the Living room and typically is pointed towards the view. The center section of the wall protrudes out 4’ at the midpoint. At either side of the midpoint, we typically place 8’ wide doors and 5 pieces of fixed glass above each door. Therefore, on the view side of the home, we have 2- 8’ wide doors and 10 pieces of fixed glass all designed to take maximum advantage of your scenic views. This is the prominent architectural feature of the Timber Frame Chalet.

Chalet Timber Home Inside you can see the real advantage of a Timber Frame Chalet. Our Chalet kits and designs include full clerestory rooms. No attic spaces or drywall ceilings here. We use 4×8 Douglas Fir Timbers from British Columbia along with 2×6 Douglas Fir Tongue and Groove. As a result, all your vaulted ceilings are 100% Douglas Fir. Timbers provide the main look of a Chalet home and we would not want to cheapen it with lessor grade species. In fact, our Douglas Fir is so beautiful, most customers simply clear coat finish it to bring out it’s natural beauty. Our chalet kits utilize douglas fir not only for its’ beauty but also its strength. It is by far the strongest softwood available and has been utilized by the best timber home companies.

Chalet Timber Home Interior Our chalet home plans are very flexible. We can customize a size for you from 400 sq. ft to 4000 sq. ft. Our process includes custom drafting in AutoCAD floor plans and elevations. Our design consultant works with you to find the right size home and style and then make it your own. The chalet kits always have a spacious and open living room with 22’ high ceilings at the peak. Dining rooms are also typically near the vaulted ceilings. Timber Frame Chalet home plans can be designed with the master either on the main floor or up in the loft. You can customize the number of bedrooms and baths you want as well as any other feature. Our Chalet house kits plan dimensions start at either 24’ or 28’ deep and then increase in 4’ increments, i.e. 24×36, 40, 44. Want to go bigger, just add a single or two-story wing. Our grand chalet design go even bigger by adding a wing on each side.

A unique aspect to our prefab chalet homes is our exposed loft floor system. Instead of traditional floor trusses, our chalet homes feature a 4×8 Douglas Fir joist with 2×6 Douglas Fir Tongue and Groove flooring on top. Therefore, when you on the first floor and you look up, instead of seeing drywall you will see the all douglas fir floor system. This design keeps the warmth of the Douglas Fir flowing throughout the first floor.
