Interesting Mid-Michigan Real Estate Listings

So, are you looking for a new place to live? Perhaps consider this home inside a barn. You read that right, a home inside a barn...Or, a barndominium or barndo, as the Zillow listing so affectionately calls it.

The Zillow listing also says that it's an "emerging trend of living", which is news to me. But regardless, it's a pretty neat setup. You basically have a smaller home situated inside this much larger barn/garage. This home in particular has two bedrooms (or one bedroom and a den area), two bathrooms, a living room and dining room, a galley kitchen, and a utility room which would be perfect for your washer and dryer.

Have You Ever Seen a House Inside of a Barn?

While the home part has plenty of space and features, it's the usable garage space that is really awesome. I would estimate that the "home" portion takes up less than half of the garage space. The other half/plus is free for whatever you fancy. You could store your boat or off-roading vehicles, take up a messy hobby like painting or woodworking, or even just use it as extra storage or party space. Whatever the case, this barndominium could be the perfect home for you. Check it out in the pictures below.
