Features of timber houses with a terrace
A house made of timber is a great place for permanent residence within the city or for a family holiday outside the city. To effectively use the usable area of the building, a terrace is erected: in the warm season, you can spend your leisure time here or receive guests.
The terrace and veranda are connected structures.
- A veranda is a platform built into a log frame or attached to a building.
- Terraces can be with or without a roof, closed or open, with a fenced space or without railings. Similar extensions are made from wood on either side of the house. Characteristic features of a terrace are the presence of arches, the absence of windows and wicker or closed panels at the bottom of the structure.
Our company offers to build a terrace for a wooden house using two different methods:
- Made from timber, the dimensions of which coincide with the material used in the construction of the building. Any thickness of the boards can be selected, since the terrace is a room that is not heated, and its operation is possible during the warm season.
- Made from a timber frame, with one part trimmed with clapboard on both sides.
These options include independent or common roofs with the house. They will serve as good protection against possible disasters. Terraces are built using frame technology. This is the principle used to build floors, roofs and fencing. When installing a terrace, our company works out to the finest detail all the details of this room: architecture, design, functionality, harmony.
We develop unique projects that allow you to build a house with an original terrace that fits perfectly into the exterior of the building.

What does it cost us to build a house? Indeed, having a team of professionals and knowledge, building a house from scratch is a matter of time! But sometimes the task is more difficult! We have introductory ones - an existing foundation, or buildings on the site, extensions to existing buildings and much more! For the Matsuev family, this was precisely the difficult task. They had a foundation from an old burnt house, and a landscaped area around it! The new house had to be built in a short time on the existing foundation. Dmitry and his family had a desire to build a new house in the high-tech style. After careful measurements, a design was made that took into account the old layout, but had a new modern form with interesting innovations! The house now has an entrance area where you can sit at a table on cozy evenings and a complex but possible in our area exploitable roof. To implement such a roof, we called upon our knowledge and modern building materials, LVL beams, fused roofing and much more. Now in the summer you can have an unusual dinner on such a roof or watch the stars at night! In the decoration, our architect also emphasized the minimalistic and graphic high-tech style. Smooth plastered walls with painted plank details, and wooden beams at the entrance added personality. The inside of the house is decorated with imitation timber, which is painted in different colors depending on the purpose of the room! Large windows in the living room kitchen overlooking the site created the desired effect of illumination and airiness of the space! The house of the Matsuev family has graced our photo gallery in the section of country architecture in the high-tech style, the style chosen by brave Customers with excellent taste.

The Wood-Brus company is engaged in the construction of wooden houses in Moscow and the Moscow region. From us you can place an order for a wooden house made of timber with a terrace - from the foundation to the finishing. Ready-made projects of one-story and two-story houses with a terrace can be viewed on our website. We build from winter wood - timber, tongue-and-groove and edged boards, and use clapboard for finishing. We harvest timber in the Vologda region, process it ourselves and dry it in convection chambers. We will build a cottage on a site with any type of landscape or difficult soil for construction.
Cottages with covered and open verandas are increasingly used as a suburban construction option. A lightweight extension does not require a massive foundation, increases the usable area, and gives the house an attractive appearance.
Projects of houses with a terrace
The terrace serves as a gazebo attached to the main building. It is used for tea parties in the fresh air, barbecues with guests, evening reading on a swing or sofa. Open verandas are attached to the facade on one or more sides.
Extensions can be rectangular, round or triangular. They are planned with voluminous panoramic windows, decorative railings or no fences at all. To protect the space from precipitation, you can completely glaze the open extension.
Examples of our work
Verandas are installed during the assembly of load-bearing walls or after construction is completed. They are built on the same foundation as the main building or installed on a separate foundation. The prirub is attached to the walls quickly and easily. A light extension improves the appearance of the house, making it larger and more comfortable.
Building a house from timber with a terrace is profitable and economically justified. The projects of such cottages are not complicated. They allow you to get a perfectly equipped place to relax.
Thus, the country house receives an additional site that can be used from early spring to mid-autumn.
In this article we will discuss cottages with a terrace, talk about the advantages of such buildings, and talk about their varieties.
What are the advantages of houses with a terrace?
Such extensions are universal. They can be used in a one-story building or a cottage with an attic. The terrace design was included in the project initially and is combined with other elements of the dacha building.
There are the following positive factors:
- Additional functionality.
A large extension provides a lot of usable space that can be used as you wish. If necessary, the terrace turns into a summer kitchen with an open fireplace, a gazebo or a winter garden.
- Protection of the main building.
Even the simplest extension can protect the frame of the house from snow, rain or wind. Moreover, it itself is created from special materials that are resistant to rain and snow. For the winter, it is covered with film or tarpaulin, thereby protecting the frame of the cottage.
- You don't have to build a gazebo or a kitchen.
The terrace can be used for a variety of purposes. Its repurposing will not take much time, but will save the area of the land plot.
Types of terraces for wooden cottages
The most common extensions are:
- Half open.
Open on three sides, have a roof. They are closed only from the side of the cottage. Only used in good weather. They serve as a gazebo or summer dining room. They can be built with your own hands from ordinary profiled timber.
- Glazed.
They differ from the first type in that the window openings in it are glazed. If you insulate such a terrace, it can be used all year round. Even without heating, such an extension can be used as a winter garden or summer kitchen with an open fireplace.
Our ancestors also actively used it in the construction of their own homes, and wooden architecture achieved incredible success and became known far beyond the borders of our country. Today, thanks to modern technologies, production, delivery, installation of an object occurs in a short period of time without loss of quality.
Additional elements or extensions in the form of a balcony, bay window, garage or veranda are designed not only to decorate the building, but also carry certain practical functions. For example, a terrace represents a smooth transition from the house to the surrounding nature outside the window. In addition, here you can relax comfortably with friends or family, enjoying the fresh air and local scenery.
A good option is to place this area as an entrance to the garden. In addition to external characteristics, a timber dwelling has good sound insulation, the ability to retain heat even in the most severe frosts, and also independently maintain the optimal level of humidity in the room for a person. Typically, a house with a terrace built from timber is a structure where everything you need is located.
On the ground floor there is a kitchen area, living room, study, bathroom, hallway. On the upper tier there is a sleeping area in the form of several rooms. Also in some cases, technical rooms, an additional bathroom, a games room, a wardrobe, a gym and others are provided.
