We are often asked for a standard square foot price, and we don’t really have an answer for that. You may have reached out to us before and we responded back with a slew of questions, request for dimensions, layout sketches – basically as much detail as you can provide. The reason being is that we don’t have a standard square foot price because there are so many variables in each build, such as:
- * Will there be porch (or wrap-arounds)?
- * Dormers?
- * What the wall height will be?
- * Vaulted ceiling scissor-trusses, gable or eave overhang, etc.?
The list is practically endless as far as custom modifications go. That’s why we put this page together, so you can see the price each of these models sold for. Bear in mind these are shell kit prices only – prices do not include interior buildouts, utility hookups, or land.
The Absolute Steel process is simple, we manufacture the shell kit per your design/layout dimensions. You would then take that building floor plan and manipulate the interiors any way you want. The floor plan used in these shell kits is included so you can either use it or modify to your needs & wants.

What makes this barndominium special is that the roof follows a 6:12 pitch, allowing for interior scissor-trusses to give this home a ton of headroom to create a vaulted ceiling. Also, the gable is extended on one end along with a lean-to porch on the lawn side. They chose to leave their exterior gable truss exposed for future wood-wrapping veneer purposes. For a total living area square footage of 2,150 SF, the square foot price on this one averaged to $17.61 per square foot.
