Starcom Design/Build Case Studies: Horse Retreat

Challenge

Our customer owns, rescues and boards horses. After moving to a new property in Mount Airy, he quickly realized that the accommodations for the horses were not up to par. He needed multiple structures built so that the horses could be comfortable and thrive in their new space. These new structures also needed electricity so that fans could be installed for extremely hot days. Fortunately, he knew just who to call!

Solution

For this outdoor project we wanted to continue the style of the original main barn onto the new builds. That way the design would be seamless over the acreage. The home owner decided to add four run ins and a hay barn. The purpose of the run in structure is to protect the horses from rain, snow or offer some shade in the hot days of summer. The run ins have an enclosed portion as well as a porch area with outside exposure. 

We were able to customize the run ins and hay barn exactly to the customer's wishes. By adding them throughout various corrals, they were spread out on the property for each horse to enjoy- no matter where they were. The new additions flow flawlessly with the original barn and the aesthetic of the home. Another happy customer and happy horses!
