Visit The Barn Yard at The Big E — Friday, September 18 through Sunday, October 4, 2026. It’s the BIGGEST sale of the year at The Big E and our stores in Ellington & Bethel, CT. Here at The Barn Yard, no detail is overlooked. We build sheds with modern features, authentic timber frame barns, pavilions and pool houses second to none. It’s the details that make the difference.

We’re excited to announce that we are now offering premium Sansin stains on our timber frame pavilions. Sansin stains are high-quality, and applied in two parts: a water-based stain, and a sealing coat. Sansin has developed a unique formula that protects the wood as much as it protects the stain. Their formula protects timbers against UV radiation, and keeps moisture out while still allowing the timbers to breathe. Sansin stains, as a result, help to preserve the timbers and prevent decay. 

On Lake Champlain in northern Vermont, this magnificent 50' x 60' Lexington Saratoga Barn serves many purposes. Local musicians perform in the barn’s entertainment area. Nestled in the back, a guest area with bedroom, full bathroom, and full kitchen hosts family and friends who come to visit. Upstairs, a relaxing hangout space is complete with a billiards table. Beneath the loft, there’s a workshop and garage. And, outside, the barn serves as the backdrop for an outdoor kitchen and patio. The barn offers breathtaking views of Lake Champlain wherever you go. Let’s take a closer look at this one-of-a-kind barn.

High-class details elevate this 30' x 34' Plymouth Carriage Barn’s appearance. Custom 32" overhangs are accented by timber brackets and a timber truss with show rafter.

And, a 20' transom dormer plus a copper-top cupola round out this Carriage Barn. With a second floor loft used as an upscale hangout space, this timber frame barn is truly extraordinary.

Intricate details elevate the exterior appearance of this 28' x 36' Roosevelt Garage in Stonington, CT. This conventionally-built garage has a single story design with an A-frame style roof and three garage bays. The shiplap pine siding was painted a light gray, and white trim was chosen for the doors, windows, and fascia. This, coupled with the dark standing seam metal roof, creates an elegant base for the rest of the garage’s details. Timber accents, including two turkey tails in the gable ends and a 4' eyebrow roof, add a rustic touch. Andersen 400 Series double hung and transom windows let light inside. And an 18' faux dormer with Andersen Series awning windows, plus a copper top cupola, tie the look together for a sophisticated, stylish exterior.
