In a previous post, Follow A Contemporary Barn-Style Farmhouse As It Goes From Design To Completion, I promised to keep you updated on the construction process of this house. As of last week, we find the house has left the drawing board, gone through the building of its components in the Yankee Barn Homes factory, and has arrived on-site in the state of Connecticut. Not only arrived, but is in the process of going up. In this post we’ll take a look at how the building is progressing, as well as the floor plans, so you might better understand the end result. It’s going to be quite special, indeed. First – the floor plans: 
Now let’s take a look at how these plans are transforming into the real thing! Intending to be have a contemporary look and feel, the exterior of the farmhouse is already looking fantastic (and all we’re seeing at this point is the “house wrap”, intended as a barrier against air infiltration). 
Here, we’re looking at the dining room windows and the beginnings of the master bedroom ell.
To the left of the dining room windows is where the media room will be located.
A full shed dormer and bump-out breakfast nook adorn the back side of the home. No connector or carriage barn with guest quarters yet, but we can see the foundation has been poured (in the fore ground of this picture), so we know it’s coming soon!
The beginnings of a contemporary post & beam farmhouse take shape.
From the corner of the pool area, you can already tell this house is going to be spectacular. I can not wait to see it completed!
On the interior, the frame is not only visible but actually commands attention, even amongst all the chaos of construction. 
Above is a peek at what will soon be the upper balcony, open to the great room below, along with a guest bath and guest bedrooms. The front left corner seen in this picture will eventually be an office which will have an open view of the great room.
Within a matter of months, this site will go from “construction” to one of occupied home. Check back soon, as I will be posting on this Yankee Barn Homes post & beam farmhouse again, once the exterior and interiors are completed. I can not wait to see this house when it’s finished, as it’s already looking like one spectacular barn home to me!
