Alluring 3-Bed Barndominium House Plan with 2-Story Great Room – 3115 Sq Ft (Floor Plan)

You won’t find many homes that manage to feel both wide open and cleverly private, but this barndominium pulls it off with style.

From the striking farmhouse-inspired façade to the generous three-level layout, this is the kind of place that anticipates everything you need: big family gatherings, private moments, and plenty of practical perks for modern life.

Let’s start at the front and move through the entire space, one room and one level at a time.

Specifications:

• 3,115 Heated S.F.
• 3 Beds
• 2.5-3.5 Baths
• 1 Stories
• 3 Cars

The Floor Plans:

Covered Porch

The first thing you notice is the wraparound covered porch. There’s space here for a porch swing or a row of rocking chairs, all protected under the black metal roof.

I picture mornings with coffee and evenings spent watching storms roll in, all while staying dry.

This porch isn’t just for looks; it draws you in and sets the tone for what’s inside.

Entry

Stepping through the front door, you land in a compact entry with direct sightlines into the main living spaces.

This spot is just big enough to greet guests, but it quickly guides you into the open concept areas ahead.

Immediately to your right, there’s a walk-in pantry—handy for dropping off groceries before you get any farther.

Kitchen

To the left, the kitchen is bright and inviting, with plenty of storage. You’ll find a window above the sink letting in natural light, and everything is within easy reach.

The large island at the center makes busy mornings or big meal preps a breeze.

What stands out here is the direct access to the pantry. If you cook a lot, you’ll appreciate how practical this layout is.

Pantry

This isn’t just a token closet; the pantry is almost a small room of its own.

There’s space for everything from small appliances to bulk snacks. Its location right off the entry means you won’t be tracking mud through the kitchen when you need to grab something.

Dining

Past the kitchen, you step right into the dining area. With a two-story ceiling overhead, the space feels bigger than it actually is.

You can seat a whole crowd here on special occasions, and there’s enough room for a long farmhouse table.

I like how this area stays open to both the kitchen and living room, making it easy to keep conversations flowing during dinner parties.

Living Room

The living room continues the open feel, stretching back toward the rear covered deck. The soaring two-story ceiling draws your eye up, and the fireplace on the side wall brings warmth and coziness.

Windows running along the back fill the room with natural light and offer views straight out to the backyard.

Imagine a big sectional, a few scattered armchairs, and lazy afternoons with sunlight streaming in.

Covered Deck

Step through the living room doors and you’re out on the covered deck. This is true indoor-outdoor living, shielded from rain or blazing sun but open enough to feel connected to the outdoors.

There’s space for a big dining table, a grill setup, and maybe even a hot tub or outdoor sofa.

It’s easy to picture summer barbecues or quiet evenings with friends here.

Mudroom

Back inside, head toward the garage and you’ll find the mudroom, which really works hard for everyday life.

There’s plenty of room for hooks, cubbies, and benches, making it easy to manage all the shoes, bags, and gear families collect.

The mudroom connects directly to both the laundry and the shop, which I think is perfect if you’re juggling kids, pets, or projects.

Laundry

This laundry room is more than just a closet. There’s space for side-by-side machines and a folding area, plus it connects straight to the walk-in closet off the primary suite.

I think this layout is great for keeping life organized, so you won’t have to haul baskets across the house.

Walk-in Closet (WIC)

Attached to the laundry and accessible from the primary bedroom, the walk-in closet is wide and deep.

There are plenty of racks and shelving, making it easy to keep everything tidy. The flow between closet, bath, and bedroom is smooth and private.

Master Bedroom

The primary suite sits at the back of the main level. With a wall of windows facing the backyard and deck, the room feels peaceful and private.

It’s separated from the rest of the house, which means quiet mornings and restful nights.

The proportions are generous, easily fitting a king bed with space for a reading nook or dresser.

Master Bath

Step through the closet to reach the master bath. There’s a double vanity, a deep soaking tub, and a separate tiled shower.

Dual linen closets provide practical storage, and a private toilet area keeps things discreet. I appreciate the way this suite is arranged—it truly feels like a retreat but stays connected to what you need day-to-day.

Half Bath

Back toward the entry, there’s a half bath perfectly positioned for guests. You won’t have to worry about visitors wandering through private areas, and the mudroom keeps any mess out of sight.

Shop and Garage

Off the mudroom is the massive shop and garage area. There’s space for three vehicles and plenty of extra room for a workshop or storage.

The doors are wide, and the ceilings are high. You could easily add car lifts or set up space for hobbies.

If you’re hands-on or need space for outdoor toys, this is a real selling point.

Stairs to Upper Level

Let’s head upstairs. The staircase is centrally located, so it’s easy to move between floors without cutting through the main living spaces.

I like that it keeps all levels feeling connected but gives each its own sense of privacy.

Loft

At the top of the stairs, the loft opens up with a cathedral ceiling and a view down to the living and dining areas below.

This space works as a second living room, game area, or a quiet reading corner.

Light pours in from the windows, and the open railing keeps things feeling airy.

Bedroom 2

Turning left from the loft, you reach the second bedroom. It’s generously sized and comes with its own walk-in closet, making it a comfortable spot for kids or visiting family.

The positioning gives just enough privacy without feeling isolated.

Bedroom 3

Next door is the third bedroom, which mirrors the size and layout of the second.

It also offers a walk-in closet, so storage is never an afterthought. Both rooms share easy access to the upstairs bath, making mornings run smoothly.

Upstairs Bath

The shared bathroom between the two bedrooms is designed with a double vanity to help speed up routines. There’s a separate area for the tub and toilet, which makes it easier for multiple people to use the space at once.

Bonus Room

Crossing past the loft, you’ll find a bonus room stretching the length of the garage below.

The sloped ceiling adds character, and the footprint offers room for anything from a home theater to a gym.

I think this space is one of the home’s hidden assets. It’s flexible enough to handle any hobby or need as your life changes.

Basement Stairs

Now let’s head down to the basement. The stairwell connects from the mudroom area, staying out of the main living zones but still easy to reach when you need it.

Basement

The lower level adds a lot of usable square footage. The main basement area is wide open, ready for a rec room, home gym, workshop, or even extra bedrooms if you want to expand.

Windows along the back wall keep things bright and avoid that cave-like feel some basements have.

Safe Room

Down in the basement, you’ll spot a dedicated safe room. This area is reinforced and windowless, making it ideal for storm protection or keeping valuables secure.

It’s a rare feature that adds real security.

Bath (Basement)

A full bath sits just off the basement hallway. This means guests or anyone using the lower level doesn’t need to go upstairs, which is great for big gatherings or if the basement serves as an in-law suite or long-term guest space.

Mechanical/Storage

Mechanical and storage spaces are grouped together in the basement. This keeps the functional side of the house tidy and ensures you have a dedicated spot for seasonal gear or extra supplies.

The basement layout means it’s all easy to access but never in the way.

Covered Patio

Step outside from the basement, and you’re under the covered patio. It’s an extension of the living space, shaded and ready for outdoor furniture or just a quiet spot to watch the yard.

This connects the lower level to the backyard, making it feel like a true part of the home instead of an afterthought.

Every corner of this barndominium has been designed with daily living, entertaining, and quiet moments in mind.

With three bedrooms and 3,115 square feet spread over three levels, there’s space for everyone and every activity, no matter where life takes you.

I think this layout works really well for a busy family who wants both room to spread out and places to come together.
