Barndominium Style Accessory Structure with Loft in Turkey Run, Charlottesville VA

This custom barndominium style accessory structure is located in the scenic Turkey Run neighborhood of Charlottesville, Virginia. Built by Spear Builders of Virginia, it was crafted to complement the primary residence while adding versatile space for work, storage, and leisure.

Project Highlights

• Two oversized garage bays with generous headroom
• Durable metal roof and dark board and batten style exterior cladding
• Full height stone chimney integrated into the design
• Open concept kitchen with vaulted ceiling, pendant lighting, large center island, farmhouse sink, and modern cabinetry
• Luxury bath with stone tiled walk-in shower, marble top vanity, and dark wood cabinetry
• Second floor unfinished loft framed with exposed trusses and ready for custom finishing

Exterior and Site

The exterior blends a modern farmhouse aesthetic with Central Virginia durability. A metal roof ensures longevity, while the stone chimney adds architectural character. The dual garage bays allow easy access for vehicles, equipment, or a workshop. Nestled among mature trees, the structure fits seamlessly into its surroundings, much like our custom builds in the Charlottesville area.

Interior Craftsmanship

Inside, an open-concept layout connects the kitchen and living space beneath vaulted ceilings. Pendant lights define the workspace, and the large island adds functionality. The bathroom carries a timeless feel with a walk-in stone shower, marble vanity, and rich cabinetry. Each finish was chosen to suit the home’s rural setting while maintaining modern comfort.

Unfinished Second Floor Loft

The spacious second-floor loft is left unfinished, framed with exposed trusses and a sturdy subfloor. This flexible space could become a guest suite, artist’s studio, home office, or climate-controlled storage — adding long-term adaptability to the property.
