  • Be Inspired by These Covered Bridges When Planning Features for Your New Home

    There may be nothing more classically American than covered bridges. These bridges dot the country and will instantly transport a traveler back to a simpler time in our country’s history. Many covered bridges have been restored and are painstakingly cared for to preserve our heritage and the beauty of the structures.

    • The Baltimore Covered Bridge in Vermont features a lattice truss design that can be replicated on your home’s exterior. The lattice design is perfect for a porch railing and will cast beautiful shadows throughout the day.
