Building Timberframe Homes to Last Centuries
Based in Mansfield, Pennsylvania, Woodhouse was founded in 1979. The original owner operated and grew the company until 2004, when Seaman bought into the company. He had had a career in industry and had moved around quite a bit. But he had been brought up near Taughannock Falls State Park and, in a refrain often heard locally, thought this area would be a good place to bring up his own children.

Family Friendly
In 2006, Pat Seaman – president and co-owner of Woodhouse® took the 3,500-square-foot, three bedroom SmartWood™ MountainView model and modified it by expanding the dining/kitchen area and the covered portion of a back deck, turning the attached garage 90 degrees, and enlarging the second-floor dormers. The home as modified became a new SmartWood™ model called the LakeView. Pat also finished the home’s walkout lower level and built a timber-framed office above the garage, creating nearly 5,000 square feet of finished space.
