The barn features excellent airflow to help maintain cooler temperatures during warmer months and multiple access points to enhance.

Engineered roof trusses create a full-length loft with plywood flooring that provides substantial storage space. The metal roof incorporates insulation designed to reduce condensation and moisture buildup. Both the interior and exterior barn walls are finished with stone, creating a durable, low maintenance structure with no exposed wood surfaces.
