6′ porch, barn-style roof, and dual lofts with a side-entry layout.
The Side Lofted Barn Cabin is the porch cabin that fits a side lot — barn roof, dual lofts, and a 6′ porch without needing a wide approach. Premier Standard: 2×6 treated floor joists in notched 4×6 skids, 5/8″ T&G flooring (3/4″ in garages), 3/8″ urethane-coated siding, 30-year metal roof, 70″ double doors, and truss plates on doors and trusses.
