We recently saw a lovely barn conversion. This morning I stumbled upon the weirdest converted barn I've ever seen. (Already, on the front lawn, there's a fountain, then some kind of stone shed w/a door.) Some one actually bought the 1805 gem in Macungie, PA. 3bds, 4ba, 3,870sqft, sold for $725k (Zillow's est.: $811,400).
I'm not sure that I understand their vision. Seems like they left some beams. That can't be a hay loft, b/c of the fancy fireplace. Unless, they put it in.
They added the windows, probably, the spiral stairs, and the realtor Photshopped the furniture.
I'm confused.
They definitely added the kitchen.
I like the cabinets.
Very fancy powder room.
Interesting loft.
Doors to the other rooms.
Fancy bath.
And, a walk-in closet.
Not sure what this is. Stone, cabinetry, a niche, and corbels on columns. Could be a primary bedroom?
Looks like those doors are salvaged from a church. Maybe a laundry room on the right?

I don't usually care for converted barns, but this one is exceptional. The 1869 barn in Woodstock, NY was converted to a home in 2020. It has 4bds, 4ba, 3,172sqft, $1.495m.
There are several entrances, lots of open space, natural light, and levels. The living room has lovely sky blue doors.
It's large and the various living areas are well spread out.
One of the 4 baths is practically in the living room. It's got stained glass walls and a rusty antique tub.
Going from the living room to the kitchen and dining room, the sunken dining room is separated by a chicken wire fence. A glimpse of the floor above is also visible.
This is lovely. A large chandelier hangs above the table, there's a beautiful stained glass window above the sliding glass doors to the pool, and a large rustic fireplace. You can see the large bright kitchen and the room above on the left.
Here, you can see the 3 stairs down.
I didn't expect a retro kitchen with pink appliances. The round kitchen is located in the silo.
All the windows let in lots of light.
Love the appliances and clock.
The layout is a little confusing b/c, as usual, the listing photos are completely mixed up. These appear to be the living room stairs coming up to this level, which is a large bedroom with a sofa and more stairs. I would say that this is the primary bedroom.
The bathroom is mostly open, except for some draperies. The sliding door is probably for the toilet and it also slides across to provide privacy for the tub.
The stairs have swinging doors that open to a catwalk.
It goes over the lower floor to spiral stairs in the silo.
They lead down to another bedroom. This is nice.
This bath is cute- have you ever seen the poop emoji done in stained glass? I also like the avocado wallpaper.
I'm confused by all the stairs and levels.
But, here's another bath with a sliding barn door.
The barn door, may, open to this 3rd level room, the top of the silo. I think that this is supposed to be the 4th bedroom.
Back downstairs a 2nd kitchen has access to the patio & pool.
This is very nice and there's also a large rooftop deck.
I like the roof design. They've got a nice garden out front, and a deck.
I don't usually like barn conversions, but these 1900 barns in Pleasant Valley, NY are so skillfully done, they're really beautiful. 3bds, 2.5ba, 2,820 sq ft, $1.695m.
The wood is so well-preserved. It's light and airy, and I like the lighting fixtures.
The living room is huge and has such a wonderful, unobstructed view.
The living room doors open to a patio.
The old barnwood and doors are all original. It even looks like an original ladder that goes up to an old hayloft.
The thing that does come mind, however, is even though it's big and beautiful, what kind of heating bill do they get in the New York winter?
This is different. They painted the dated cabinets red and whitewashed the wood.
Quite a large kitchen that features a fireplace.
What pretty blue subway tiles.
The primary suite is very large.
The smaller bedroom is so cozy.
The subway tile baths are all so lovely.
The 3rd bedroom is larger and has a pitched ceiling.
This house by the pool is just as beautiful.
It has the cutest little red living room.
What a great poolhouse.
The kitchen cabinets match the red walls in the living room.
And, it has the cutest red bedroom.
It's a guesthouse, but it would be a wonderful place to live in year round.
The Front of the poolhouse.
Here you can see where the main house is in relation to the poolhouse.
I don't usually like barn conversions, but I love this 1803 barn in Easton, PA. 3bds, 3ba, $849K. (Is it just me who gets a pang of jealousy when I see that a listing I like is pending?)
This is nice, it doesn't have that modern farmhouse look.
I think that it looks more Zen & Bohemian.
This is a little awkward, though. Is that a ladder in there?
The kitchen and dining areas are a little barn-ish.
Little heat stove next to the kitchen counter.
They show the kitchen on the floor plan, but this is all that they show of it in the listing.
Cozy family room under the loft.
There's a den up here, and it looks like some art supplies, also.
Unusual bedroom. It looks like it has a sitting room one level up.
Here's a large bath.
And a large bedroom, with a sitting area, facing a patio.
It's on the roof over the garage, so it must be the primary bedroom, b/c it's very private.
Down here is a room that you can actually pull your motorcycle into.
But, this is absolutely glorious. I wonder if they're leaving the plants. Can you imagine stocking this place from scratch?
There's a beautiful deck out here, surrounded by lots of trees and greenery.
Gorgeous grounds.
Another murky koi pond. Don't they filter these things?

The beginners’ ultimate guide for barn conversions
A barn conversion is nothing but a barn which has now been converted to serve different purposes. Barn conversions are pretty similar to farmhouses and, used for housing animals, storing cereal or barley for the animals, and also for the storage of food.
Uses and Types of Barns
Varieties of barns are available around various countries. Initially, the peasants were more prone to using local materials for the construction of barns as they didn’t have to import anything.
Practical Advantages of Converting Your Barn into a Living Space
Most houses have an outhouse barn constructed for various purposes like livestock and agricultural storage. However, space constraints have pushed ideas for years and barn conversions have become one of the most feasible and sustainable makeovers in the scope of utilization of space. Barns undergo disintegration over the years due to extensive use and moisture retention. Converting a barn into a usable living space comes with many benefits and long-term preservation advantages of the space.
Give Your Home an Extra Living Space
A barn is ideally located outside the immediate premises of the house making it a breathable and comfortable area of sustainable living. If converted, barns can be modified with the latest constructional technologies and innovations like insulation, interior remodelling, furnishing ideas, and moisture control to make the most of pleasant living space.
