Episode two of the Solo Barndo Build. I've learned the hard way...the easiest way and time to dig for frost protection is with a minix before you even start building.

The Cedar plan is thoughtfully designed to maximize space and cost efficiency, without sacrificing function! This openconcept plan features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with plenty of space to add another bedroom and/or bathroom upstairs. A large 8′ kitchen island, feature fireplace, and charming wrap around porch come together to make this home feel cozy and welcoming. The Cedar plan provides an economical structure with 14′ sidewalls and a vaulted ceiling upstairs, helping reduce building costs by utilizing a “one and a half” story design.

Paul will be breaking down the days/hours it takes for each portion of this build.
