About this plan

Twin Gable is a single-storey Scandinavian barn of 2,045 square feet on an 81 by 39 foot footprint, four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, organised under two vaulted gables rather than one. These scandinavian barn house plans come as a complete PDF set.

Why two gables

Splitting the roof into twin gables gives the building a waist. It breaks up what would otherwise be a very long single ridge, and internally it separates the two living areas without needing a wall between them, because each one sits under its own vault. The result is a house that reads as two connected volumes instead of one long shed.

How the plan works

Between kitchen and dining there is a pantry and a servery. The servery is the detail worth noticing: it is a benchtop you can leave loaded without it being part of the kitchen, which is what keeps an open plan tidy when you are hosting.

A wood-burning fireplace anchors the main living area. There is a study nook, a utility room and a two-car garage.

Structure and foundation

Drawn for a slab foundation with footing details included.

What you get

A complete construction set, supplied as a PDF:

  • Dimensioned floor plans for each level, drawn to scale
  • Exterior elevations on all four sides
  • Building sections and construction details
  • Foundation plan with floor, wall and roof framing layouts
  • Electrical layout
  • Window and door schedules
  • Roof plan with pitch and overhang dimensions

Before you build

Permit requirements depend on your location, site and proposed construction. Your building department determines which drawings, calculations and professional approvals are required, and local review may identify changes needed to the plans. Some departments ask for an engineer’s stamp or a foundation designed around your own soil report; arrange these with a local engineer. Print as many copies as your builder and your permit application require.
