Utilize the garage as a shop, throw a dividing wall and use half the garage as an office or shop, or utilize the end of the house with the bedrooms as an office area with a separate entrance the The Marathon plan from Wick Buildings could be a great barndominium plan.
This barndominium floor plan counts as 2,048 square feet because the garage is not heated or counted in the residential-only version of this plan. If you heat the garage to turn it into an office or shop, the square footage would obviously increase to almost 3,500 square feet.
