Great Uses For Lofted Barns

It’s hard to underestimate the practicality of having a barn on your property, especially if you own a farm or ranch. But pretty much anyone who has the space can benefit from a lofted barn, which has a separate loft above the main floor of the barn that can be used in a number of ways. Here are just a couple of the versatile uses that your lofted barn can offer.

1. Storage For Hay & Feed

Naturally, the most common way that lofted barns are used is as an actual barn where livestock live. You can store straw, hay, feed, and other supplies for your animals in the loft, which helps to keep the ground floor clear of obstacles.

2. Studio Space

Do you like to do art of some kind and lack a workspace? A lofted barn’s loft can serve as a pottery, painting, woodworking, or sewing studio, where you can assemble your materials and set up your supplies. You’ll need to make some modifications for comfort, but the layout of a lofted barn can be great for artists who need a place to work.

3. Additional Lodging

With some alterations, you could turn a lofted barn into a beautiful cabin or mother-in-law house on your property for guests to stay in. The barn will create a charming atmosphere within its sturdy walls, and you can use elements of its interior to add to the rustic look.
