There are many types of barn plans and stable designs available.

Here’s a list of features that are commonly incorporated with today’s barn plans and stables:

  • Sliding doors on either end of the structure
  • Storage loft
  • Finished loft with recreation area or living space

Barn plans and stables are ideal for those who raise/own horses, but they often work well for those who want to own a couple of cattle or few other farm animals but don’t need all the other outbuildings and accessories associated with a working farm or ranch.
