The Classic Gambrel Large Barn delivers large-capacity storage without taking over the yard. The gambrel roof buys you real vertical room for racking and loft boards, while the precut, labeled kit and 2×4 framing make assembly straight-forward with basic tools. Finish it to match your property and use it as overflow garage, lawn-and-garden HQ, or a clean spot for seasonal gear.

Benefits

More usable volume, same footprint: The tall gambrel profile creates headroom for ladders, kayaks, and totes up high - so the floor stays clear for mowers, ATVs, or a workbench.
DIY build that stays square: Precut, primed, and labeled parts reduce layout errors and trimming. Panels line up cleanly, fasteners bite well, and the shell stays rigid as you add shelves and hooks.
Wide, equipment-friendly entry: Extra-wide double doors make it simple to roll in bulkier gear. No angle-jamming or taking attachments off just to park something inside.
Durable exterior you can repaint: LP SmartSide® takes paint evenly, resists impact better than thin sheet metal, and lets you refresh color down the road without special prep.
Finish locally, save on freight: Source shingles, drip edge, and paint near you - match your home and avoid paying to ship heavy, off-the-shelf items.
Drier, better-ventilated interior: Built-in gable vents help move moisture out and protect tools and materials.

Key Advantages

Treated with a Zinc Borate treatment
Resistant to fungal decay and termite damage
Attractive overlay on the interior
Primed face

CUSTOMER PROVIDES:

Shingles
Drip Edge
Paint
Runners
Floor (if the building is not purchased with a floor kit)
If you will be preparing a cement/concrete slab, it would have to be exactly the same size as the unit. If the concrete slab is larger then you would have to trim the 3” skirting that falls below the bottom plate that is designed to wrap around the flooring.

The above items can easily be purchased by the customer at a local hardware store.

OPTIONAL FLOOR KIT:

2×4 treated floor joists – 16” O.C
5/8" plywood floor decking
Note: 4×4 runners NOT included
floor size should be exactly the same size as the building

If You're Building your own floor

To build your own floor, the size of the floor will need to be the exact size of the Barn.
We recommend a crushed stone base 1′ wider on either side of the Barn.
The siding overlaps the side of the wood floor roughly 3″ and there is no moisture barrier. You can put this on a cement slab or wood floor – but accommodate for this
You can retrofit for this but we do not provide instructions for this

Do I need a Floor Kit? This depends on your preference. If you are not getting a floor kit from us, you can either build your own floor or create a cement slab for your shed. Please take note that it should be exactly the same size as the shed.

(If you are using a slab as the floor then it needs to be the exact size of the building. If it's used as a foundation, then you can have it in any size.)

Additional Info:

Base: We recommend a crushed stone base, 1 foot wider than the building on all sides.

Flooring: Not included on some models. If you are building your own wood floor, it needs to be exactly the same size of the unit.

Don't Take Our Word For it! Here's What Our Customers Think:

Hats off to Homestead Supplier for superior customer service - these guys go above and beyond to answer all my questions. We purchased the Beach House shed for some extra storage but ended up using it as a backyard playhouse for the kids :). Now we have to buy another shed lol... The shed is great, sturdy, and would recommend to others.

- Sam B.

I found the buying experience to be far better than expected. Very easy to order, received immediate order confirmation, excellent customer service, order showed earlier than expected and in excellent condition. Would definitely recommend

- Dean G.

After 7 months of waiting for our pool to be completed, we are thrilled to have gotten our new shed built. It perfectly completes our backyard renovation. We love it! The instructions were clear, and the building is sturdy. We’ve had a number of inquiries about who we bought our shed kit from.
