What is a Barndominium Kit?

Unlike standard metal buildings, our wood-framed barndominiums offer lasting beauty, durability, and value, with an enduring framework that’s naturally energy-efficient and insulating. Each barndominium kit includes engineered blueprints, pre-cut framing lumber, siding, windows, doors, and hardware for quick and efficient on-site assembly. From modern farmhouses to unique barn-style homes, our team is here to make your vision a reality.

Wood-Framing vs. Steel-Framing

Frequently Asked Questions

While we see no difference usage-wise between a barndominium and something like our standard barn home or barn with living quarters designs, the term barndominium carries more ambiguity because of its relative newness to our industry. Even so, barn homes, barns with living quarters, and barndominiums can serve the same function as traditional or multi-use homes, and all three utilize wood as their primary building material.

The starting price for our Meridian generally falls between $90,000 and $150,000 for the base design and materials package, though costs may fluctuate based on changing market rates. While factors like finishes, customizations, cost of construction, and location will impact the final cost, we often tell clients that their turnkey price will typically fall closer to 3–5 times the price of their chosen standard model.

Our company does not offer financing. However, our project coordinators are experienced with the financing process for our prefab structures and can help you secure the right financial partner for your project.

Yes! The materials included in our barndominium building kits are backed by a 10-year limited warranty that starts from and after the date of the owner’s complete payment.

We do not design metal-built barndominiums. We instead craft our barndominium, barn home, and barn with living quarters projects with high-quality wood materials, like select-grade Douglas fir. We believe this makes for a longer-lasting, more beautiful, and overall better structure than any metal building or pole barn on the market.

While we do not use structural insulated panels (or SIPs) for our barndominium designs, our clients can add these panels as an extra layer of insulation to their structures.

Yes! We offer a builder network comprised of hundreds of contractors nationwide that can build your project on your property. Whether you’re in California, Texas, or New York, we can help you find builders to bid on your project. Located in the western US? Our parent company, DC Builders, has experienced framing and siding crews that can install and build the shell of your structure.

While dependent on the construction type and plans for the structure, people can build barndominiums almost anywhere. However, the final stamp of approval ultimately must come from the county they plan to build in. With this in mind, it’s important to have a conversation with your county permitting officials ahead of time to determine the requirements associated with your land purchase and building plans. This information will be vital to your project, considering you can then proceed knowing where to allocate your money and the types of structures available to you.
