HB-40503 H-Shaped Barndominium Plan: The Textbook H With An In-Law Bedroom
3,000–3,999 sq ft · 5 bed / 3.5 bath · 1 story · 76' × 70'
PDF plan set $1,349.99 · Five printed sets $1,599.99
If you drew an H from memory, this is the plan you would get: two 23-foot wings, each 70 feet long, joined across the middle by a 30' × 18' family room with a covered porch behind it.
Layout
- Center: A 30' × 18' family room forms the bar, with a covered porch on the back courtyard.
- Left Wing: The social side: living room, dining and a 22-foot island kitchen, plus one bedroom and a lounge at the front.
- Right Wing: The quiet side: four bedrooms, the laundry and the primary suite.
- In-Law Option: The lone bedroom on the kitchen side sits far enough from the others to work as a parent's or in-law's room without building a separate suite.
Who It Suits
Families who want a classic two-courtyard H and an occasional-guest or in-law bedroom away from the kids.

What It Costs To Build
At a standard finish of $80–$120 per square foot of heated space, 3,000–3,999 sq ft comes to about $240,000 – $479,880. A high-end finish at $150 or more per square foot starts around $450,000. Land, site work, septic and utilities are extra, and porches price closer to shell rates.
An H has much more exterior wall than a rectangle of the same size, so plan toward the top of the range. How the H shape affects cost.
Lot Width Needed
About 100–110 feet of buildable width once typical side setbacks are added. Setbacks vary widely by county, so confirm yours before you buy a plan.
