Barndominium Construction

Live in it, work in it: custom barndominiums that pair a comfortable home with a big shop under one roof.

A barndominium combines the practical shell of a barn with a fully finished home. Many owners choose a split plan: living space on one side, a shop or garage on the other, with a shared roof and a wide porch. You get open interiors, high ceilings and exposed beams, with the efficiency of post-frame construction.

A barndominium is a home, so details matter: insulation, moisture control, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, windows and interior finishes all have to be planned together. We coordinate those pieces with licensed trades and design the shell to make them work.
