🗺️ Tips for Finding the Right Land to Build Your Barndominium
Dreaming of wide open spaces, big Texas skies, and a custom barndominium to call your own? Before the walls go up, the first step is finding the right piece of land — and we’re here to help guide you through it.
Here are some key tips to keep in mind:
1. Know Your Purpose
Are you looking for a quiet homestead, a weekend retreat, or a working ranch? Your land needs will vary based on how you plan to use the property. Think long-term — what do you want your land to do for you?
2. Check Zoning & Restrictions
Not all land is build-ready. Make sure to check:
• Zoning laws (residential, agricultural, etc.)
• Deed restrictions
• HOA rules (if any)
These can impact the size, style, and even the materials used for your barndo.
3. Access to Utilities
Look into the availability of:
• Water (well or municipal)
• Electricity
• Septic or sewer options
• Internet and phone service (especially for rural areas)
Installing infrastructure can add unexpected costs if it’s not already nearby.
4. Soil & Topography
The ground beneath your feet matters. Soil quality affects your foundation, and the terrain can impact drainage, access, and building costs. A site survey or soil test can save a lot of headaches later.
5. Consider Location & Lifestyle
Think about proximity to:
• Schools, work, and hospitals
• Grocery stores and gas stations
• Outdoor recreation or livestock needs
You want land that fits your lifestyle and your future goals.
