Barn style house plans rise in popularity as we seek solace from the ever-increasing pace and complexity of daily life in the 21st century. Inspired by the past but with all the comfort and convenience we've come to expect in a new home today, they provide an opportunity to make a uniquely personal design statement!
The White Mountains of New Hampshire provide a spectacular setting for an equally stunning design from Yankee Barn Homes. A vibrant interplay of pattern, texture and color, the "Cabot" evokes the charm of yesteryear in a barn style house plan for
today.
The post and beam home is clad with wood siding and a standing seam metal roof. Details such as window shutters, bracketed roof overhangs, a cupola and hay hood (gable end roof extension) enhance its visual appeal.

An open floor plan with 2,367 square feet of living space includes three bedrooms and two and a half baths on two levels. The front entrance hall leads to a Great Room with stone hearth and soaring cathedral ceiling. Across the room, a wall of windows offers panoramic views of the landscape.
At right, the eat-in kitchen opens to the dining room, which in turn opens to the Great Room. A set of French doors leads from the dining area to a sun room. The expansive rear deck offers plenty of space for outdoor entertaining.
At left, the master bedroom features a large walk-in closet. The master bath includes dual vanity sinks and a private toilet.

A design from American Post & Beam embodies elements of vintage carriage house architecture. The "Vermont Hilltop" barn home features a symmetrical facade pierced by double-hung windows with divided lights. A cupola crowns the roof.
Inside the 2,872 square foot dwelling, a traditional center hall plan transitions to an open kitchen, dining and living room extending across the back. French doors lead from the living room to a library and covered porch. To the right, a screened porch adjoins the kitchen.
The master bedroom suite includes a walk-in closet and dual vanity sinks. A laundry room and half bath complete Level 1.
Level 1: 1,608 square feet
Tucked beneath the gable roof on Level 2 are three bedrooms, a full bath and a loft/office.
Level 2: 1,264 square feet
