You already know that The Barn Yard & Great Country Garages is unique. From our unparalleled offering of mini barns all the way up to mega barns, there's no one quite like us. But did you also know that we offer an exclusive 3D Design Service with every custom building project? Seeing 3D renderings of your building before it's built helps you fine-tune the design and make sure everything is just right.

Offering elegant style while also allowing more light into the building, the transom dormer is a stylish option on Grand Victorians, Victorian Cottages, sheds, garden sheds, garages, and homes. But even more, the transom dormer is a Barn Yard original.

Barn raising a 78' x 200' barn is no easy task. Our crew was at the job site in Goshen CT from sunrise to sunset all week proudly working for the brand. Their hard work paid off.
