The My Barndo Plans team wanted to make a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom 1200 sq ft barndominium that was super affordable to build. A great build if you want to keep the budget low and still have a fantastic barndominium. We kept the layout simple but effective, using 9 ft walls and a simple roof line. We call this plan the Rustic Nook; it is a perfect blend of rustic charm and simple comfort. This thoughtfully designed 1200 sq foot barndominium floor plan has no hallways to waste space. This exceptional open floor plan is perfect for someone looking for a 2nd home, a small getaway, or a small home on their land. The barn home plan is 30 feet wide and 40 feet deep.

We have a few versions of this plan. A version with a carport is shown in the image gallery. That is a modified version. If you want that version, let us know after you order and will send you that plan.

Barndominium Master Bedroom

The large master bedroom is in the back of the house, with easy access to the kitchen and the utility room. The master bedroom is designed to have a large walk-in closet, a spa-like master bathroom, and a large window. If you are looking for a small barndominium plan that lives like a larger plan, the Rustic Nook is for you.

Barndo Living Space

This 1200 sq foot barndominium floorplan boasts a simple design that maximizes its space. Upon entering through the front door, you’ll be greeted with a spacious open floor plan, perfect for daily activities and family get-togethers.

Kitchen

The kitchen on this small barndominium has been designed to be super functional, with easy access to a small pantry and the utility room. The Rustic Noon features a spacious island that can accommodate dining or casual conversations with the cook.

Simple to Build

We designed this home plan from the ground up to be low-cost and simple to build. The steel-cutting team and the architects thought through every detail with one goal in mind, to keep it affordable to make the steel and make it simple to stand up. The standard kit has everything to build your shell except the windows and doors.

Everything about this barndominium, from the roof line to wall size is calculated to keep your home building cost to a minium.

If you want to keep your interior framing cost down, we can ship you light gauge steel stud wall panels. They are less expensive than wood and can be installed by almost anyone familiar with construction.

Cold Formed Steel Kit Available

This plan is planned for a slab foundation. Your local builder can change/adjust the foundation based on local soils and regulations.

Does Not include slab or septic.
