Premium Home Grade Construction

The Handcrafted Homestead is built just like a traditional home using 2x4 wall studs spaced 16 inches on center and a 2x6 truss system. This construction method offers the same strength and structural integrity you would expect from a residential building. Unlike pole barns or prefabricated sheds, it is engineered for long lasting durability and stability.

This extra-large Wood Barn Kit offers two full floors of usable space. The first floor features 8'1" sidewalls, giving you generous headroom for tools, storage or workspace, while the 7'1" second-floor loft provides plenty of room for organization, an office, hobbies, or livable expansion, all without center posts or obstructing beams.

Constructed with Best Barns SecureTruss technology, TimberPrestige imported premium Eurowood, and precision pre-cut materials, this shed kit is built for durability and straightforward assembly. Designed for confident DIYers, it offers a cost-effective build experience without sacrificing quality or performance.

Ideal for homeowners seeking both craftsmanship and creative freedom, the Handcrafted Homestead XL with Transom Doors combines lasting durability, customizable design, and endless potential. Perfect for dedicated DIY enthusiasts, it delivers the satisfaction of building a premium, handcrafted structure. (previously sold as the Virginia shed kit, this is the same shed reworked for better quality and marketing.)
