Economy Lofted Barn 8 x 12

Economy Lofted Barn 8 x 12

An 8x12 economy lofted barn in cream with a red roof and red trim is a space-efficient backyard storage solution that combines a neutral aesthetic with bold accents.

Design and Aesthetics

• Colors: The structure features cream-colored siding (often LP SmartSide or similar painted wood), contrasted by a vibrant red metal roof and matching red trim along the corners, roofline, and doors.
• Roof Style: It utilizes a gambrel (barn-style) roof, which provides a traditional look and maximizes interior vertical space.
• Trim Details: Red trim typically frames the double doors and gables, emphasizing the building's architectural lines. 

Structural Specifications (2026 Standards)

• Dimensions: A footprint of 8 feet by 12 feet providing roughly 96 square feet of ground floor space.
• Storage Loft: Includes a built-in storage loft (standardly 4 feet deep) at one or both ends, effectively increasing usable storage capacity without expanding the footprint.
• Interior Height: Walls are typically 6' 3" to 7' high, with the peak of the gambrel roof reaching 9 to 11 feet.
• Access: Usually equipped with 64-inch double barn doors to allow for easy entry of lawnmowers, ATVs, or large equipment.
