The Ravenwood Flats: A Modern Barndominium Designed for Real Living

If you’ve been searching for a home design that blends modern style, functional layout, and build efficiency, the Ravenwood Flats series might be exactly what you’re looking for.

Designed by Buckeye Plans, the Ravenwood Flats offers two powerful options:

  • BP-700 – Ravenwood Flats (Original)

  • BP-701 – Ravenwood Flats (Expanded)

Both versions are built around a simple idea:
👉 Create a home that actually works for how people live today.

A Layout That Makes Sense

One of the biggest problems with many house plans is wasted space. Long hallways, awkward room placements, and designs that look good—but don’t live well.

The Ravenwood Flats solves that.

At the core of both BP-700 and BP-701 is a wide, open-concept layout that connects:

  • Kitchen

  • Dining

  • Living Room

This creates a central space that feels open, functional, and perfect for:

  • Entertaining

  • Family time

  • Everyday living

The split-bedroom design keeps the primary suite private while placing additional bedrooms on the opposite side of the home—ideal for families or guests.

Two Versions to Fit Your Needs
BP-700 – Ravenwood Flats (Original)

The original version offers a clean, efficient layout with approximately 2,400+ square feet of living space.

This version is perfect for:

  • Budget-conscious builds

  • Simpler construction

  • Faster build timelines

BP-701 – Ravenwood Flats (Expanded)

The expanded version increases the living space to approximately 2,511 square feet, with strategic bump-outs that improve:

  • Room sizes

  • Flow between spaces

  • Overall comfort

This version is ideal for:

  • Homeowners wanting more space

  • Families needing better room separation

  • Buyers looking for a more refined layout

Garage or No Garage – Your Choice

One of the biggest advantages of the Ravenwood Flats design is flexibility.

Both versions can be built:

  • With a 900 SQFT attached garage

  • Without a garage (perfect for detached shops or future additions)

This allows you to tailor the home to your property, budget, and lifestyle.

Designed for Barndominiums, Farmhouses, and More

The Ravenwood Flats is incredibly versatile and can be built as:

  • Barndominium (post frame or metal structure)

  • Stud frame home

  • Modern farmhouse

  • Hybrid shop house

Its rectangular footprint helps keep construction efficient while still allowing for customization.
