Seeking Carpenter/Builder – Detached Garage & Office
Posted June 22, 2026
We are looking for a builder, or small construction team interested in partnering on a detached garage and office project in Warren, Vermont this summer or fall.
We have been considering several pre-engineered garage packages but would like to explore whether a custom stick-built approach could provide better value, flexibility, and architectural fit for our property.
Project Overview
Warren, VT
Approximately 28' x 28' to 36' x 32'
Two-car garage/workshop on the first floor
Dedicated office space on the second floor
Black board-and-batten exterior
Black windows and metal roof
Design should complement an existing New England/farmhouse-style home
The second-floor office is a key priority, as it will serve as a full-time workspace for a small business owner. We are particularly interested in thoughtful design, natural light, dormer options, and creating a space that feels like a true office rather than simply storage above a garage.
We already have:
Property survey and site plan
Conceptual building location
Preliminary garage designs and inspiration images
A clear understanding of our goals and budget
We are open to:
Custom stick-built construction
Timber frame or hybrid approaches
If this project sounds interesting, we'd love to connect and discuss ideas, budget expectations, and availability.
