The Buckeye Barndominium 1 is designed for those who need real space, real function, and a layout that works for everyday life on land.

This plan combines a modern open-concept home with a fully integrated shop and farm-ready features — making it ideal for homeowners, homesteaders, and anyone looking to build a true live/work property.

The main level offers a spacious living, kitchen, and dining area designed for gathering and entertaining, along with a private primary suite, dedicated office, and highly functional utility spaces. Inside the primary suite, you’ll find a built-in safe room discreetly located within the master closet, adding both security and peace of mind.

The attached garage/shop delivers serious capability, featuring a tall RV bay door for motorhomes, trailers, or oversized equipment. Off the side of the garage, a lean-to extension provides flexible covered space — perfect for horses, chickens, ducks, or additional farm and equipment storage.

Upstairs, the design opens up into a loft-style layout overlooking the main living area. This open upper level reduces unnecessary framing and finish costs while still providing additional bedrooms and usable space, creating a balance between efficiency and scale.

Whether you’re building on acreage, starting a homestead, or simply want a home that works as hard as you do — this plan delivers.
