Barndominiums are a recent blend of the words barn and condominium. Many outside of Texas may not even recognize the phrase. The name refers to a non-traditional structure, with a steel frame and sheet metal siding, originally designed as a storage building or barn that has been repurposed by the addition of living areas to the existing open space. But is also may include wood-framed structures with terms such as barn home.
When it comes to planning for a Barndominium construction project, there are a lot of things to consider so that it will become a building where everybody will feel comfortable and welcome to how you want to use the space. Turnkey is a local general contractor that specializes in this specific type of construction project.
At Turnkey, we want your Barndominium to be a perfect combination of good looks and effective functionality.
We can be your partners to help you decide what will work best for you.
The picture on the left features a new metal home with large windows to let in natural light and provide an unobstructed view from inside the home.
The large exposed truss and the stone on the front add to the aesthetics of this build, which helps showcase that Barndominiums aren’t just “plain commercial rectangles”.
Also, we added the carport on the side of the large covered porch for parking and protected access to the home.
This picture shows the spacious view from inside the home.
This great room has large vaulted ceilings and wooden beams throughout with lots of natural light flowing in from front to back.
This open concept kitchen is perfect for entertaining guests or cooking a family dinner, where everyone will feel involved.
In the pictures above, you will find additional aspects of Barndominium construction. In the first, you will notice how we used the freedom of steel construction to add this art studio to the home. This workspace is as tough as it is stylish with its shiplap walls and stained concrete. Add in plenty of lighting and storage and you have the perfect Mancave or She-shed!
In the second you will notice this home incorporates the perfect symmetry of a painted shiplap ceiling with boldly exposed beams, accentuated with ornate lighting.
The concept of Barndominiums is unique and you want to work with a builder who has intimate knowledge and experience. The perfect Barndominium project is a combination of a well-balanced design so it fits everyday usage.
