Montrose is the big master-planned community on the north end of Post Falls, in Kootenai County — the one built around its own parks, walking paths, stocked ponds, and a community pool, with phase after phase of modern homes filling in around them. A shed here has to read like part of that: current colors, clean rooflines, nothing that looks like it wandered in from an older property. We build custom sheds on-site in Montrose, right on your lot, framed and finished in place so the building matches the house and the neighborhood. For most owners that means a trim storage shed to take the garage overflow or a finished she-shed tucked into the backyard.
A custom shed built on-site in Montrose, Post Falls — trimmed and colored to match the master-planned community's modern homes.
Montrose lots are newer and platted on the tighter side — graded flat by the builder, fenced, and usually reached through a side gate or off the driveway. Quite a few back up to the community's parks, ponds, or common-area paths, which means the back fence faces shared space and neighbors, so where the building sits matters as much as how it looks. We site the shed to protect your usable yard and keep sightlines toward the common areas clean. A garden shed or modern-roofed home office in the 8x10 to 10x14 range fits most of these backyards without crowding the patio, and we set it back per the subdivision plat and Post Falls zoning for accessory buildings.
Matching the planned community is the rest of it. Montrose runs an active HOA with an architectural committee and design standards, so an outbuilding that misses on roof pitch, trim, siding, or color stands out fast against all the new construction. We spec the roofline and pull siding and color straight from your house so it clears review. Before you lock anything in, read your CC&Rs and submit for approval — the permits page covers how the city and Kootenai County setbacks fit on top of the neighborhood's own rules.

Many lots back to shared space and the ponds. We place the shed to respect common-area sightlines and keep your usable yard open.
Clean rooflines, slim trim, and color pulled from your house keep the shed in scale with the community's modern homes.
Yes. Montrose is a master-planned community with an active HOA and an architectural committee, so plan to submit your shed for review before the build. They typically look at the style, roofline, siding, color, and exactly where the building sits to confirm it fits the neighborhood. Because we build on your lot, we spec the roof, trim, and color around whatever you get approved — once you have the CC&Rs and submittal form in hand, we match the building to them.
Tie it straight back to your house. Montrose homes are recent construction with current siding, trim, and colors, so a clean gable or low-slope roof and siding and color pulled from your elevation read far better than a rustic, older-looking building. Since we frame and finish on your property, we line up the roofline, door, and window placement with the home. The configurator is a good way to preview a modern look before you submit it to the architectural committee for review.
Montrose lots are newer and platted fairly tight, so setbacks from your property lines matter more than they would on an acreage parcel. The exact distances come from the subdivision plat and Post Falls zoning for accessory buildings, and the HOA often adds its own placement rules on top. Confirm both before you settle on a spot — our permits page explains how the city and Kootenai County rules fit together, and we place the shed to keep your yard usable and your setbacks clear.
Often, yes. Montrose is built around shared parks, ponds, and common-area paths, and lots backing to that space can carry extra HOA expectations about height, color, and how far a building stays off the shared boundary so it does not loom over the common area. We place the shed to respect those sightlines and keep it in scale, and we work to whatever the committee approves. Tell us which way your lot faces the common space and we plan the footprint and placement around it.
Most Montrose backyards are reached through a side gate or off the driveway, and we plan the build and delivery around that access. Smaller footprints in the 8x10 to 10x14 range are the easiest to bring in and assemble in a compact, fenced yard, which is part of why they are common here. Tell us how your lot is reached — side gate, driveway, or open side yard — and we fit the placement and build sequence to it without tearing out fencing.
