Classic Gambrel Large Barn - Panelized DIY Kit

The Classic Gambrel Large Barn is the biggest structure in the Little Cottage Co. lineup — a true barn silhouette with the tallest roofline of the Classic Series, built to turn overhead space into usable storage rather than wasted air. The steep gambrel roof pushes the interior peak height to nearly 11.5 feet on the 14-foot-wide model, so it comfortably handles loft storage, tall equipment, tractors, or a full workshop setup that a standard shed roofline simply can't fit. It ships as a panelized kit: primed, pre-sided wall sections and precut roof components you fasten together, built by Amish craftsmen in the USA.

This is the size to reach for when a shed isn't enough — a hobby barn, a small equipment barn, a workshop with real headroom, or storage for a boat, tractor, or seasonal equipment that needs vertical clearance. Because of its size, assembly is more involved than the smaller Classic Series sheds and typically takes a small crew several days rather than a single weekend. Shingles, drip edge, paint, and windows (if desired) are purchased separately; a full instruction manual and all precut hardware are included.
