Design Your Own

Double barndominium plans take the popular barndominium concept and split it into two connected structures joined by a covered breezeway. This twin-barn layout separates living and sleeping zones, or living and workshop zones, giving you the ultimate in flexibility and room to spread out.

Our double barndominium floor plans range from 2,400 to 5,000+ square feet across both structures, with 3 to 5 bedrooms and 2 to 4 bathrooms. A typical layout places the open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area in one barn with vaulted ceilings, and bedrooms or a workshop in the second barn. The covered breezeway between structures serves as a shaded outdoor living area.

The dual-structure design offers practical benefits beyond visual impact. Separating sleeping from living areas provides noise isolation. Placing a workshop or garage in a separate structure keeps dust, noise, and fumes away from living spaces. The breezeway creates a natural cross-ventilation path that cools the home in warm climates.

Common Questions

FAQ

What is a double barndominium?

A double barndominium consists of two separate barn-style structures connected by a covered breezeway or dogtrot. One structure typically houses the living areas while the other contains bedrooms, a workshop, or additional living space. The design combines barndominium affordability with enhanced separation between zones.

Is a double barndominium cheaper than a regular house?

Double barndominiums use metal frame construction which costs 30-50% less per square foot than conventional framing. However, the two-structure design creates more exterior wall area than a single building. Overall costs typically run $100-$175 per square foot, making them more affordable than conventional homes of the same size.

Can the two barns be built at different times?

Yes, the separate structure design makes phased construction straightforward. Many owners build the living barn first and add the second barn later when budget allows. The breezeway can be completed with either phase. Each structure has its own foundation and framing system.
