If you are considering purchasing a property with a barn on it—or currently own a barn that isn’t being used—you might be wondering what to do with the space. In fact, if you’re like most people, you’re unaware of all the great possibilities that can come with owning a barn. Deciding whether to use this space for your own personal needs or for those of others is an important part of making a decision regarding what to do next.
Personal Space or Party Space?
Barns aren’t just for horses—many people have discovered that older barn structures can make marvelous habitats for people, too. In some cases, a barn can be used as an addition to your home’s living area as a separate living structure. Of course, barn sizes vary, and a smaller one can be remodeled and put to use as a mother-in-law suite or office. Or, you might consider turning a larger barn into a unique, detached guest house you can offer to visiting family members or even rent out to guests on popular property rental websites.
If you have a large home with plenty of living space and don’t wish to add more, you may want to think about turning the barn into an event or party space. This is a wonderful way for you to make the most out of the barn’s space and gain some rental income for events or parties. Opening your barn into one large, rustic space works well for weddings, birthday parties, and other gatherings.
