Lake Travis Barn

West of Austin, TX on the banks of Lake Travis lies this beautiful barn. The owners reached out to Michael Johnson of Johnson Powers Construction to remodel the old barn that was on their property. The family needed an updated space that would accommodate their riding needs. After settling on a plan Michael and his team set to work, and the finished project is nothing short of amazing.

When planning the remodel, they knew they would have to find a product that complimented the Texas Limestone that the structure is built of. After getting in touch with TimberTown it was decided that White Pine would be a perfect match. For the interior ceilings, TimberTown provided 1x6 White Pine Penny Gap. The sliding barn doors leading outside were built using our 2x6 White Pine Centermatch.

The barn is well equipped. Complete with eight stalls, twelve skylights, a kitchen, bathroom, and ample storage; this is the perfect space for all of the property owner's equestrian needs.

On the right side of the barn, sliding doors lead out to a parking area where trailers can be loaded/unloaded and guests may leave their cars. On the opposite side, doors lead out to small pavilion surrounded by fenced areas for other livestock. Just beyond is a larger field for the horses.
