Sweet Cabins has developed a solid reputation for producing top-notch Amish-built structures that harmoniously blend traditional skills with functional modern design. For example, one of their flagship products is the large and impressive two-story 30×60 two-story Gambrel cabin equipped with spacious 3-sided 10-foot wraparound porches, as well as a big additional porch roof that creates a roomy outdoor patio area.
This stunning Amish Gambrel cabin not only provides ample living space but also exudes a timeless charm, making it perfect for those who want a flexible and lasting home or getaway. The outside is highlighted by a traditional gambrel roofline which not only increases the availability of square footage on the second floor but also gives the building a unique, barn-inspired look that is still in harmony with rural and natural scenery.
Besides, the three-sided wraparound porches ensure that there is a lot of space for outdoor living no matter which side of the cabin you are on. They are ideal for relaxing, having guests over, or just enjoying your views. The big porch roof extension at one end of the cabin further makes the outdoor area even more functional as it provides a covered place that is very much like a patio and allows you to enjoy your living area even when you are outside the walls.
Manufactured with fine-grade Eastern White Pine in a traditional board-and-batten style and covered with a rugged metal roofing system, this Amish Gambrel cabin is designed with meticulous care and is very durable. A team of Amish craftsmen hand-builds all the buildings on the clients’ foundations, which guarantees not only accuracy but also quality in every single building stage.
This cabin comes as a weather-tight shell and the interior isn’t finished, so you basically get a blank canvas that you are free to do whatever you want with it, down to the last little detail. Since the design is open and the walls are fairly high, you have a very good starting point for making your living spaces really comfortable and, visually, as large as possible.
In fact, a lot of people decide to add insulation, carry out all the finishing work, lay down floors, install electrical and plumbing systems, put in cupboards, and much more after completion of the shell. The nice thing is that you can have the upstairs arranged as one big loft or as a proper full floor; this means you’ll have the liberty to decide what to use the space for, bedrooms, storage, or multi-purpose areas.
The cabin’s ability to be used all year round represents an important advantage of this 30×60 Amish Gambrel cabin. During spring and summer, the large wraparound porches and the roof with its big extension at one side allow you to enjoy the fresh air and sun, as well as use the outdoors as your living and gathering space. When it comes to the golden fall season, the timeless gambrel design and natural wood shades go well with the colors of the leaves, thus making the cabin a very attractive seasonal spot. The solid roof readily sheds snow in winter time and the well made shell, once it is properly insulated and heated, will keep out the wind and cold extremely well.
This adaptable Amish Gambrel cabin is perfect for a wide range of locations and purposes. On forested parcels or in the countryside, the gambrel style and the wraparound porches will visually fit in nicely with the natural setting. Waterfront properties will appreciate the large outdoor living areas that provide gorgeous views as well as plenty of space for socializing. Locations in the mountains or on sloping lands will benefit from the roof’s capacity to handle snow load and from the cabin’s overall stable and attractive appearance capable of withstanding changing weather conditions.
The trustworthiness of Amish craftsmanship can be seen in every aspect of the building, from the exactness of the framing to the care given to even the smallest structural detail. Sweet Cabins’ method of assembling the cabin at the customer’s site makes sure that the cabin not only fits perfectly the foundation of the customer but also allows for significant customizations to be made during the construction process.
Listed at $113, 500 + transportation, this 30×60 Amish Gambrel cabin represents excellent value for money when you consider that it is a cabin shell, generously sized and manufactured to very high standards by a group of experienced Amish hands. The mix of large dimensions, a slew of porch space, and wonderful possibilities for customization together create a great temptation for anyone wanting to build a personal and durable cabin home.
