Deephaven Architecture & Houses

The architecture of Deephaven homes follows that of other surrounding Twin Cities communities in many regards. Cape cod, Colonial, ramblers, Tudors and modern day classics adorn the Deephaven landscape. The specific area in Deephaven determines largely what style of home one sees. There are older areas with classic architectural styles, mid-century areas with many ramblers and areas more recently developed with large contemporary homes. Deephaven homes are almost all traditionally stick-framed structures with a combination of fiberglass batt and cellulose insulation systems, making them more prone to heat loss and ice dam formation.

Construction assemblies and materials that are common to Deephaven are also common in other Twin City neighborhoods. For example, roofs in Deephaven are typically asphalt shingles or cedar shakes, with the random slate or metal roof. Probably 90% of the roofs in Deephaven are asphalt shingle, with the other 10% being comprised of cedar, slate metal and other materials. Deephaven roof styles include hip roofs, gable roofs, mansard roofs, flat roofs and the occasional gambrel roof.

If you live in Deephaven, the most successful plan for extending the life of your roof is to keep a regular schedule and do some very basic things. In the case of all Deephaven roofs, with the exception of slate, it is wise to send a professional up on the roof twice a year.
