Greenville Custom Shouse Floor Plans

Shouses and barndominiums are increasingly popular due to their unique combination of living and storage space. Unlike traditional homes, they feature open-concept layouts and high ceilings, which offer a spacious and comfortable living environment. Specialized floor plans are essential when building a shouse or barndominium because they determine the functionality and flow of the space, including the placement of living areas, storage areas, and utilities.

Virtue Home’s well-designed floor plans maximize the use of available space and ensure the living space is comfortable, functional, and suits the homeowner's lifestyle. Our attention to detail and personalized approach results in a finished product you can be proud of and enjoy for years to come!

Shouse & Barndominium Building FAQs

What is a shouse?

A shouse combines a residence with a storage or workshop area, typically in a single structure. The term is a portmanteau of "shed/shop" and "house," reflecting its dual purpose.

How much do shouses cost in Wisconsin?

The cost of a shouse can vary greatly depending on size, materials, and location. On average, shouses in Wisconsin can cost anywhere from $400,000 to $1,000,000+.

What is the difference between a shouse & barndominium?

A shouse is a combination of a house and a shed, while a barndominium is a combination of a barn and a condominium. Both provide living space and storage/work space, but barndominiums are often larger and more spacious (open-concept barndominium designs are very popular), with a focus on barn-style design elements.

Are barndominiums allowed in Wisconsin?

Yes! Barndominiums and shouses are both allowed in Wisconsin as long as they comply with local building codes and zoning regulations.

Can you use a regular mortgage to finance a shouse or barndominium?

Yes! A regular mortgage can be used to finance a shouse or barndominium - though there may be better financing options available. Work with a lender who is familiar with financing alternative structures like shouses and barndominiums to determine which financing option is the best for you.
