HB-40509 H-Shaped Barndominium Plan: A Porch-Lined Courtyard You Walk Through To The Door
3,000–3,999 sq ft · 4 bed / 3 bath · 1 story · 72' × 60'

HB-40509 is the courtyard plan. Its 28-foot living room sits toward the back, so the front court is deep, and covered porch lines both sides of it before ending in two small screened porches.
Layout
- Center: A 28-foot living room with glass double doors straight onto the front court.
- Left Wing: A 21-foot kitchen and dining room at the back, the primary suite at the front.
- Right Wing: Three bedrooms, two baths and a 21' × 16' game and media room at the front, so its noise carries toward the yard.
- Courtyard: Covered porch down both sides, ending in two screened porches.

Who It Suits
People who will actually live in the courtyard: morning coffee, evening meals, a place for kids to play within sight of the living room.

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.
