Burnt Oaks Build Progress: From Site Prep to Framing

Architecture & Site Placement

The final location of the home on the lot is a natural extension of the property itself. The orientation is planned to:

  • frame views toward the pond and future pool terrace
  • capture the movement of prairie light throughout the day
  • nestle the structure among mature cottonwoods and rolling hills

This intentional siting informs everything from window placement to interior flow — reinforcing the grounded, heritage-inspired feel.

Build Progress

Site preparation is complete, and framing is about to begin, marking the transition from concept to structure. As a Bismarck ND home builder, Truebuild Homes is approaching each phase with precision — from ensuring structural integrity to anticipating the stonework and millwork elements that will define the home’s architectural presence.

Every step brings the European farmhouse vision one phase closer to reality — a custom home shaped by patience, collaboration, and a deep respect for the land.
