Will, in addition to Flanger' suggestions regarding windows/doors, here's some other places you might check out for your scratch building supplies:
Clapboard wood wall sections: Northeastern Scale Models, Mt. Albert, Micro-mark (I like Northeastern as they offer 3" wide wall sections as well as 3 1/2". If you figure the 3" section is 12' in prototype then it's a realistic height for each floor. They offer different types of wood sections so take your pick and preference). Rustystumps.com also has a great selection of wall sections including brick and stone in 1/4" scale.
For building details, I'd check Rustystumps again for stairway sections, roofing and other castings. Also, definitely look over the tons of castings that Modeltechstudions.com has. Barmillsmodels.com has roofing materials and a nice line-up of detail castings as well. I could go on and on as there are many other great manufacturers that have what you're looking for. For an overview, try ValleyModelTrains. com who has kits and details from most of the major sellers. Barring that, just Google any specific part you're looking for and someone will undoubtedly be making it.
