Beautiful brilliant barn conversions with relaxing living area and a massive opening door revealing an amazing open outdoors area. Source: www.onekindesign.com Converting an old derelict barn has become all the rage in the past few years as homeowners look for an alternative challenge that could provide them with something a little out of the ordinary.
Old barns on farms or large lots or in a rural area that have been neglected for years now offer intrepid builders or renovators an opportunity to restore these wonderful buildings and convert them from their old ‘no longer productive’ condition into examples like you will see in this article.
Utilizing all the old rustic features only adds to the charm of these converted buildings.
From rough sawn, large chunky timbers and natural worn timber flooring through to exposed brick walls, it’s plainly obvious why these old buildings have so much appeal to today’s builder or renovator.
Another great feature of these buildings is that usually offer an expansive open plan living space often with the ability to fit a mezzanine or second story within the structure itself.
This gallery of brilliant barn conversions will give you some insight into the possibilities with these buildings and who knows, maybe you too, may become a barn convert.
