Prefabricated Steel Barndominium in Goldfield, Nevada

Made by Sunward Steel in April 2024 and shipped to Goldfield, Nevada, this 2,400-square-foot barndominium gives its owner a home, shop and garage in a single building.

The residential side has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, while the rest of the building leaves plenty of room for cars, tools, equipment and projects. The owner can also get from one area to another without going outside, keeping him covered and dry when the weather’s less than ideal.

The building’s steel frame and roof resist fire, pests and moisture, making it easier to maintain than a traditional home. Unlike wood, they also won’t warp or crack due to exposure, resulting in minimal upkeep for the homeowner.

The owner also had a say in nearly every aspect of the barndominium, including its doors, paint color, trim package and wainscoting.

For the outside, he chose Light Stone paint with Hunter Green trim and wainscoting, creating a building that looks right at home in its rural Nevada setting. Inside, everything the owner needs to live, work and more remains within close reach, saving the owner time while making life a little easier.
