Locate a Rep

We are Jane and Don Sharpe, of Design Limited Homes, Newtown, CT.  We live in a Ward Cedar Log Home and have represented the company for almost 20 years.  But our love of cedar logs goes back to the 1970s, when we ordered from Ward, choosing the company for its premium cedar and reputation.  We did our first construction ourselves, log by log, learning masonry, electrical, and plumbing.  In the 1980s, we built our present Ward home.  As we neared retirement, we liked the company so much that we asked to become authorized reps.

Today, people regularly visit our Ward home, tell us what they like and don't like, and share a cup of coffee.  We have books of Ward house plans.  Most clients, however, want to create their own design.  That's our forte.  We listen, offer ideas, and draw free sample sketches.

We stay with them through the design process, revisions, pricing, and ordering.  We are also there when materials are delivered, and regularly on site during construction.  One thing we particularly like is to visit after the home is built – and hear about the joys of living in a Ward log home.

Allycia and Michael LeCompte currently live in their dream Ward Cedar Log home in Rumford Point, Maine.  It was a long road to get there but they are now living the dream.  Allycia grew up in a small log home and always dreamed of having one of her own that had more room to entertain.  When she met Michael at Maine Maritime Academy, who shared her love of the outdoors and also liked the idea of a log home.  After many years of planning and looking for the right company to go with, they finally decided to build the dream with Ward Cedar log Homes and started the building process in 2014.  The LeCompte’s love their home and have greatly enjoyed working with Ward.  We would love to talk to you about your future dream log home.

I am the owner and service provider for New England Cedar Log homes and the official Ward Cedar Log Homes sales associate and licensed real estate salesperson in Massachusetts working for Century 21 Northshore Real Estate.  I have a Bachelor of Science degree in mechanical engineering technology from Northeastern University and had a 25 year career in the semiconductor industry making memory and microprocessor chips.  Throughout this time, I have managed dozens of construction and complex machine installation projects ranging from complete new factories, to manufacturing facility relocations, to retrofits, and expansions.  The projects involved managing relationships with Architects, Engineers, Permitting, all types of contractors, and most importantly, the end user.  Planning and managing budgets and project schedules ranging from a few thousand dollars over the course of a few weeks to hundreds of millions of dollars over the course of 18-24 months.

After moving around most of New England purchasing, building, expanding, and renovating numerous homes in CT, MA, and NH during the course of my professional career, I have decided to focus my skills, energy, and attention to helping you navigate the process of getting your custom home designed and built to meet or exceed your expectations.

We are Ken and Phyllis Meier of Hartington, NE.  We are life long residents of northeast Nebraska and both grew up on farms in the area.  We love the outdoors and enjoy all outdoor activities.  We decided to build a log home that would allow us to go and get away from the rat race and enjoy the piece and quiet that one can achieve when living in a log home.  We designed our own home and Ward helped us to achieve the home that we wanted that matched our style.  We believe that anyone who wishes to experience the joy of a log home should have that opportunity and we are here to help you, from the planning state to the final moment when you walk through the door into your dream home.  We will listen to you and help you to achieve the home that you want.

At Black Mountain Legacies, we know that a cabin is much more than a place to rest your head on a pillow at night; a cabin is a place where love is shared, laughter is loud, and memories are made. A cabin is a legacy passed on from generation to generation. 

Here, standing against the legacy my Grandparents built together with their 7 children in 1971 I reminisce the many memories of our family gathering together frequently laughing and loving one another and growing together in the cabin that I am now blessed to call home with Stephanie and our fur kids (boxer dogs) Bentley and Lileigh. 

Having been a part of the construction of hundreds of cabins throughout NH, VT, and even ME, with my Dad building a cabin is about much more than just another home being built for my family. Building a cabin is about quality, tradition, hard work, love, laughter, and together building a legacy that will be carried on for many years. 

Call us or email us today and let us show you the life our family has been living since 1971. 

In 1979, Mike and Connie Jackson became Ward Log Home owners by building their first home in Litchfield, New Hampshire.  Mike's expertise, from having been in the construction profession for over 38 years, allows him to walk a first time buyer through the process as well as helping create a fully customized home for a seasoned home owner.  Connie, his wife, with her real estate broker experience, compliments him by matching the buyer's needs with floor plans and designs.  

If you want the experience of owning a beautiful white cedar Ward Log Home and living in tax-free New Hampshire, please give us a call.

Thank you for visiting our page.  My partner, Debbie, and I absolutely love our Ward home nestled in the foothills of the White Mountains of NH.  Our home and floor plan can be viewed under the “Hybrid Homes” section of the company website.  We, like the clear majority of Ward clients, designed our own home.  With lots of compromises, even competing miniature model homes that we each built and outside input, we managed to complete the process.

We would certainly enjoy sharing our experiences, knowledge gained as well as successes and failures with you to assist you in any way possible in creating your dream home.  We invite you and would most welcome you to visit with us at our home in Madison, NH.  our home is a log sided home (hybrid) which some visitors find difficult to believe as it looks so much like what they would expect to see in a traditional stacked log home.  We incorporated many energy efficient design features including a geo thermal heating system which resulted in our home earning a Five Star Plus energy efficiency rating.  Yes, log homes can be energy efficient!

I would like to share with you just a brief bit of personal information as a further way of introduction.  I am a retired school teacher and retired real estate agent.  I should probably add that I am a do-it-yourselfer and after help with getting a weather tight shell did almost all the remaining carpentry of my home.  I would be willing and most enjoy sharing any tips and lessons that i learned along the way.  Debbie is a registered nurse and works full-time at our local hospital.

Once again, thank you for visiting and we would love to hear from you.
