A Streamlined 3BHK Barndominium w/ Detached 8-car Workshop (HQ Plans & 3D Concepts)

Calling all the property owners who want to utilize their extensive lot for their dwelling and business. Fix your eyes on this rustic barn-type home that is planned alongside a 2,400 sq. ft. detached workshop garage. For convenient access, a breezeway connects the two separate properties. Enjoy the work-life balance, as well as the benefit of having a working space just across your residence.

Before going through the plan, you can stop by and explore our Ultimate Barndominium Manual for additional barndo-building knowledge. The article is an all-inclusive guide, so spare time for your reading.

Now, let us first set off our walkthrough with the exterior check. The plan hints at a country barn facade with a wraparound porch next to the breezeway. A separate structure standing next to this home is the designated workshop unit covering a 2,400 sq. ft. garage area. Both builds are sheer and matched in design but made sure to be distinguished as to which is the home and the workshop.

Floor Plans

Into the home, generous living quarters are your advantage, graced with an open-to-above living and kitchen hall. The living/great room grants a wide space for heated seating and shares the floor with the dining area and kitchen.

If you’re a business owner or a work-at-home individual, check out this plan’s exclusive home office that is specially prepared for occupants like you! Located at the right side of the entry, this den/office is open for your study, desks, and office furniture.

Meanwhile, down the corridor of the living/dining room, there’s a reserved master room furnished with a full bath and a closet. The other door adjacent to this room opens to the breezeway to the garage.

But before heading to this garage, let’s see what’s on the second-floor loft. Just above the master bed are duplex bedrooms with a jack-and-jill toilet and bath equipped with their own closets.

Outside these rooms are two overlooking lofts, allowing more lounging and adaptable corners for showcases. An attic access is readily available, lending more storage or maintenance space if needed.

Now, as we explore the garage/shop, you might spot different garage entry points. These are handy if you’re managing a shop/business in this unit with frequent visitors. One primary entrance is at the right of the property, suitable for your public guests while the other doors could be for your home/family’s access. 

The shop’s huge space is dedicated to eight vehicles with two large bays for effortless steering and parking, and it comes with a powder room and more span for your hardware and storage.

In general, this plan is a practical two-in-one barndo, ideal for a business lot with private residences. Don’t hesitate to click the specifications button if you need more particulars we might not have mentioned.

Note: this home may be constructed using metal framing; however, you should always consult your local architect-engineer and receive a professional evaluation if such an option is feasible for this plan and your local building codes.
