Construction Notes
The 4:12 roof pitch is a standard slope commonly used in barndominium construction — sufficient for weather runoff while maintaining the low-profile barn aesthetic.
The slab foundation provides a cost-effective, durable base appropriate for single-story structures of this footprint.
Important Verification Note
Note: Always verify all measurements and specifications with the plan documentation prior to permitting or construction.

Residential Living Areas
Standley Barndo
The residential portion uses an open-concept, single-level layout that connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas around a generous primary suite and a covered front porch.
Primary Bedroom Suite
The plan includes one large primary bedroom with a dedicated closet and a spacious full bathroom. This is the sole full bath in the plan, and the layout allocates generous square footage to both the sleeping and bathing areas. There are no half bathrooms.
Kitchen & Dining
The kitchen features a large island as its centerpiece, along with a dedicated bar area. This configuration supports both everyday meal preparation and casual entertaining. The kitchen connects directly to the dining and living areas in the open-concept arrangement.
Living Room & Fireplace
The living room provides a central gathering area anchored by a fireplace. The open layout allows the living room to flow into adjacent spaces without partitioned walls, creating a spacious interior feel appropriate for the 60′ × 40′ footprint.
Covered Front Porch
A covered front porch is included in the plan, providing a sheltered outdoor space directly adjacent to the main entry. This feature extends usable space beyond the heated interior and is a common element in barndominium plans of this type.
Single-Level Flow
By placing the primary living spaces in a continuous, connected layout, the Standley Barndo supports efficient day-to-day movement and a spacious feel within a compact 60′ × 40′ residential footprint.
Designed for Everyday Living
From the generous primary suite and island kitchen to the fireplace-centered living room and covered front porch, the residential areas prioritize comfort, connection, and practical single-level living.
The Integrated Shop & Garage
A defining feature of the Standley Barndo is its massive 60′ × 20′ integrated shop and garage — 1,200 sq. ft. of dedicated working, storage, and vehicle space built directly into the structure.
3-Car Garage Capacity
Sized to accommodate three vehicles, providing everyday parking alongside equipment storage without crowding the interior.
Workshop Space
The open 60′ × 20′ floor plan supports workbenches, tool storage, and active workspace — suitable for mechanical, woodworking, or fabrication activities.
Equipment & Storage
Practical dimensions for trailers, riding equipment, landscaping machinery, or inventory storage. The integrated design ensures convenience and protection.
Structural Advantages
The 20′ overall height provides vertical clearance for lifts, tall equipment, or high-bay racking. The 60′ span across the full width eliminates interior load-bearing columns, maximizing maneuvering and workspace layout.
Who This Plan Is Suited For
Standley Barndo
Built for Owners Who Prioritize Workspace Alongside Everyday Living
The Standley Barndo is a plan with a specific functional profile. Its single bedroom and substantial shop footprint make it a strong fit for a defined set of use cases. It is not a plan designed for large families, but rather for individuals or couples who prioritize working space alongside residential comfort.
01
Car Enthusiasts
The 3-car garage capacity and 60' × 20' shop floor make this plan well-suited for vehicle collectors, restoration hobbyists, or anyone maintaining multiple vehicles on-site.
02
Contractors & Tradespeople
The large integrated shop provides space for equipment, materials staging, and small-scale fabrication, practical for contractors who operate from a home base.
03
Equipment Owners
Rural property owners managing acreage often require covered storage for tractors, ATVs, trailers, or agricultural equipment. The shop dimensions accommodate most common equipment footprints.
04
Hobbyists & Makers
The open shop floor plan is flexible enough to configure as a dedicated hobby workshop, woodworking, metalworking, or other fabrication activities, while maintaining a fully functional residence in the same structure.

Q6: Barndominium Kit Availability
The Standley Barndo is offered as a plan package. Buyers interested in barndominium kits or barndominium kits for sale should inquire directly about kit availability for this specific plan.
