Your Local Olympia Barndominium Specialists
A barndominium isn’t just a house—it’s a highly engineered structure designed to blend modern home comfort with the strength of a metal or post-frame building. Unlike kit companies that sell generic packages, Zepp Construction builds custom engineered barndominiums designed specifically for your land, your lifestyle, and Washington’s strict weather requirements.
Every barndominium we build includes:
- Engineered framing systems rated for snow, wind, and seismic requirements in Thurston County
- Premium exterior steel and roofing for decades of durability
- Energy-efficient shell packages built for long-term performance
- High-quality windows, doors, and insulation
- Full customization—floor plans, aesthetics, and lifestyle features
You get a stronger build, longer lifespan, and more design freedom than a traditional wood-framed home—often at a lower cost.
Why Build a Barndominium in Olympia?
Thurston County is one of Washington’s top barndominium regions due to:
- Larger acreage properties on the outskirts of Olympia
- Flexible zoning in rural neighborhoods
- Strong agricultural history supporting shop-homes and pole-frame construction
- Cost-effective lifestyle—more space for less money
- Ideal land for shop homes in places like Johnson Point, Delphi Road, Boston Harbor, and Kelly Road
Barndominiums are popular with families, farmers, hobbyists, entrepreneurs, and anyone who wants a modern home with space to work, store equipment, or pursue projects.
