The Ponderosa Country Barn House is 40 feet by 60 feet and has a cupola. It also features two stories of living area and a lower floor. All of the Sand Creek Post & Beam barn house kits feature both the beauty and strength of post and beam timber frame construction. These custom designed barn house kits have been used for lake houses, full-time residences, secondary homes and loft apartments. Our barns, which are rustic and sophisticated, are pre-manufactured. They’re shipped as a package, and built to last. On the main floor, there is an open living/dining/kitchen area, with a stone fireplace and a stone bar area that looks out at the downstairs area and custom beam work. On the second floor, you’ll find a sitting room and bedrooms. This barn-style house is located in Colorado.
Sand Creek Post and Beam kits are designed to be used with a foundation made of concrete. The most popular home foundation is a slab of concrete with poured foundations for your barn style house. Concrete slabs, concrete blocks, or pier block bases can be used with post and beam barn houses because of their flexibility. A full or partial basement is another option for foundations.
The barn house kits include everything except the foundation, shingles, and siding nails. Sand Creek Post & Beam use only full dimension six inches by six-inch rough cut wood, both for its authentic, rustic look and for the additional strength that it provides. The result is an incredibly rich and rustic appearance both inside and out. Norway pine or Ponderosa are the most popular woods for barn style homes. Norway pine has a straight grain, a smooth texture and is strong, making it ideal for posts, beams, and trusses. Ponderosa Pine is a wood that is known for its honey-toned hue. It is used when appearance is important. Both of these woods have been specially milled and are easy to use.
All of the Sand Creek Post & Beam frames are pre-assembled to help ensure the have perfect fit before they are then disassembled for shipment. The result is a barn-style home that is extremely sturdy and will last for many years. There are a variety of sizes, styles and options for barns and accessories. Sand Creek Post and Beam’s big timber barn kits and other outbuilding kits are custom designed so that you can create the barn of dreams. You will only need the foundation to build, and then your choice of shingles to complete your outbuilding or barn style kit.
