Former barn is transformed into beautiful home


Pictured is the “Barndominium” home of Nolan Trice and Taylor Thomas. The home, located on County Road 21 North in Fayette, was transformed from a former horse barn and is now a beautiful, unique and spacious house.

The home of Nolan Trice and his soon-to-be wife Taylor Thomas, was transformed from a former horse barn into a beautiful, spacious home that would be the envy of most young families. Trice said that he wanted to build a new home, and a horse barn on their property that was no longer being used caught his eye. He said that he had heard of a new trend called “Barndominiums,” and thought that transforming the barn into a home might be a possibility.
