Barnmakers and Yankee Barn Homes |
|
Since 1969, Yankee Barn Homes has been designing and building with post and beam.

Yankee Barn Homes had its origin in 1968 when Suzanne Hanslin, a sculptor and equestrian, suggested to her real estate developer husband Emil that barn architecture could be the basis for a wonderful home. At the time, Emil Hanslin was engaged in the development of New Seabury, a residential community on Cape Cod in Massachusetts. Over about a year in time, Emil devised a barn home design that combined beauty, value, efficiency, and comfort. He named his design the Mark I and formed a company around it named Yankee Barn Homes.

Having built over a thousand unique Yankee Barn Homes across the country, developing a line of complimentary barn structures has been a natural progression for us. After all, everyone needs a barn!
Our barns carry on our long tradition and innovation.
