The cost to build an oak frame home isn't as high as you may think, but there are lots of things to consider before embarking on such a project. 

Oak frame homes look wonderful and can cleverly mix old and new in a modern stylish way. From beautiful kitchen extensions to oak framed conservatories, oak frame garages and entire oak framed houses, there is something for every budget.
