32' x 36' Cumberland Event Barn
We designed and built this 2,000s.f. timber frame barn for clients looking for a bright, open space for their home-based business. The first floor provides drive-in storage space for equipment and tools, lots of tools. The finished second floor has exposed open beams, lots of light and an open layout that inspires creativity. This traditional structural design could easily be adapted to a multi-bedroom residence with ample room to entertain. We hope you enjoy the photos as much as we enjoyed creating this very special BungalowInABox.
We returned to add a wrap-around 12' deep covered patio with a hip roof to provide a protected outdoor space.
