Built for Bigger Dreams. Designed for Limitless Customization.

From the Handcrafted Homestead XL Series, the 16x28 Wood Storage Barn Kit blends timeless barn craftsmanship with modern DIY flexibility and exceptional storage capacity. Featuring a classic gambrel roof, a full second-floor loft, and an enclosed staircase, this large wood storage barn kit provides the structure and freedom to create the perfect space for your vision - whether it becomes a workshop, hobby studio, guest cabin, or powerful storage solution.

Built with the same standards as a traditional home, the Handcrafted Homestead XL Wood Storage Barn Kit is engineered with wall studs spaced 16 inches on center for maximum strength and stability. Designed for confident DIY builders, it includes a complete structural framework while allowing full customization of the interior and exterior. With no doors included, you have the flexibility to choose and position your own doors to match your preferred layout and functionality.

Unlike standard shed kits, the Handcrafted Homestead 16x28 XL Storage Barn Kit provides two full floors of usable space. The first floor features 8 feet 1 inch high sidewalls, offering generous headroom and room for equipment or large storage items. The second-floor loft provides 7 feet 1 inch of clearance, perfect for creating a workspace, studio, or cozy loft retreat.

Crafted with Best Barns SecureTruss technology, TimberPrestige premium Eurowood, and precision pre-cut components, this wood storage barn kit ensures long-term durability, structural integrity, and an easier assembly process. It offers a cost-effective way to build a premium wood barn with the quality and craftsmanship you expect from the Handcrafted Homestead series.

Perfect for homeowners who want a large wood storage barn kit that delivers strength, flexibility, and lasting value, the Handcrafted Homestead 16x28 XL offers premium craftsmanship and endless customization potential.
