Associated Designs | Rustic Garagedominium Blends Farmhouse Charm with Modern Functionality

This two-story garagedominium combines classic farmhouse charm with the practicality of a garage apartment and the rustic appeal of a barndominium. Designed with Craftsman-style detailing—exposed trusses, stone accents, and timber columns—it delivers both warmth and sophistication.

The main level centers on a spacious 34’6″ by 35′ garage, large enough for multiple vehicles, farm equipment, or a workshop. This generous footprint reflects the barndominium spirit—offering flexible, functional space while retaining a comfortable residential feel. Just off the garage, a dedicated office provides a quiet workspace, complemented by a nearby storage room. Across the way, a compact home gym enhances the home’s live-work versatility.

Upstairs, the vaulted great room defines the open-concept living space. Stretching 35 feet long, it’s flooded with natural light from expansive windows and tied together by warm wood finishes. An open kitchen with modern amenities and a discreet pantry flows into the great room, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

The private bedroom on the upper floor mirrors the great room’s vaulted ceilings, offering comfort in a compact layout. A full bath nearby blends clean modern finishes with farmhouse styling, creating a relaxed and cohesive atmosphere.

Vertical board-and-batten siding, sleek black garage doors, and strong gable rooflines give the home a bold exterior presence, while dormer windows add visual interest and bring light into the upper floor. The rustic timber porch and thoughtful design elevate this from a simple garage apartment to a true farmhouse-inspired retreat.

Blending utility and comfort, this garagedominium offers an ideal setup for rural living, hobby work, or guest accommodations. Its smart layout and rustic-modern charm make it a flexible, stylish choice for anyone looking to live and work under one roof.
