Dream Barn

 

Framed by rolling farmland hills in the foreground, and the majestic Blue Ridge Mountain range in the background, this 22-acre farm property features an Irish inspired stone & heavy timber barn as well as a port cochere entry/ farm office building, all designed and built in less than a year.

 

Dream Barn
“This project is really quite impressive when you see the stone and timber in person. The mass, heft, and scale of it all is just inspiring set against the beautiful natural background of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia.” - Eric Fraser, New Energy Works COO.

 

“This barn is on a 22-acre small farm, and there is no residence on the property,” the property owner shared. “I have always wanted a barn like this, and it’s not really any more complicated than that. I bought this property almost a decade ago, and there was only a small storage shed building on the land, it was always part of my plans to build something like this.”

 

Dream Barn
“I have Irish heritage, my grandparents both immigrated to the US from Ireland, and this property is very reminiscent of the Irish countryside, which is heavy stone everywhere, wood and timber everywhere— it’s just beautiful. We tried to recreate a little of that Irish countryside look and feel here in Virginia.” – Property Owner
