Barn Handyman
The partitioned workshop, with a loft on top
Same two-room layout as the Utility Handyman, built under a barn roof. You get the interior partition dividing workshop from storage, plus the overhead loft that the gambrel shape makes possible.
Worth knowing
This is the most storage-dense building in the range — two usable ground-floor rooms and a loft above both. If you are trying to get a workshop and a season's worth of storage onto one pad, this is the one that does it.
