Looking to Buy a Barndominium?
You don’t want a barndominium. You want freedom, flexibility, and a place that finally feels like yours. That’s exactly what we build.
Why are barndominiums so popular—and are they really the best option?
Barndominiums have exploded in popularity because they promise a rustic-meets-modern vibe with lots of square footage at a decent price. But here’s the real question: do they actually deliver the experience you want long-term?
Most barndominium buyers are looking for something custom, a home that breaks the mold without breaking the bank. But here’s the truth no one’s telling you: most barndominiums come from generic plans, and what you gain in space, you often lose in personality, warmth, and real-home comfort.
If you’re thinking about buying a barndominium in Texas, pause. What you’re really looking for might be something even better.

What if you could get the look of a barndominium with the quality of a high-end home?
Barndos sell the dream of country living without the construction headaches. We get it. But at Kendall Cabin Co., we do something smarter: We deliver custom-built cabins that look and feel like barndominiums—but with tighter craftsmanship, more durable materials, and personalized layouts made for you, not some nationwide template.
Here’s what sets us apart:
- Fully custom floorplans designed to match your lifestyle
- Built to the same (or better) standards than residential homes
- Stylish metal or wood exterior options for that barndo look
- Clear, fixed pricing so you know exactly what you’re getting
Our cabins don’t just give you the feeling of a barndo. They give you better efficiency, smarter use of space, and a home that feels uniquely yours—because it is.
Can a cabin really replace a barndominium?
- A barndominium is a building.
- A Kendall Cabin is a home.

It was a pleasure working with Marc through every step in the process. He took time to answer all my questions about the quality of materials used to build the cabin, the building process, the specifications for set up, and the delivery. The cabin was timely delivered. It is very nice! We are currently in the process of hooking up the electric and plumbing. It is going to be a very comfortable and aesthetically pleasing living space.
