If the structure is properly maintained and roofed it will be hundreds of years before rot is an issue. You can also design wood structures that don't easily burn, atleast not any more than large buildings are already prone to being destroyed by fire.
And are you going to continuously build houses for the sake of it? Most houses don't last hundreds of years either and the carbon being pulled up now mostly isn't going to be sequestered for countless thousands of years unless we put in insane amounts of effort making it so.
