Harmony Barn Renovation |
Week 1:
In 2021 we worked with architect Heather Murray to bring our vision of renovating our 20 year old horse barn into a gathering place for small workshops, weddings, and meetings. She created amazing plans transforming a dirt floor structure into an attractive, functioning, and welcoming space worthy of the name Harmony Barn. We are now working with builder Patrick San Marco with SM Built to bring to life our vision of a place where people can come together to participate in events, or even just relax while taking advantage of the beauty of the area and all it has to offer both culturally and recreationally. Week one was all about demo! Taking down walls and stall gates and partitions. Because of all the construction work on the lower part of the barn, we have suspended vacation rentals in the apartment above. There will be just too much noise, dirt and activity for our guests to experience a peaceful get-a-way. If all goes well we should be back in action in April.

Thanks for being my first comment on my post and for your kind words! Yes, it's been (mostly) fun putting this into place and can't wait till we can get it off the ground! I hope you have a good winter and I hope we can meet up in Santa Fe this summer!

So excited to watch the transformation take place. Even more excited to think about taking an art or writing workshop in this space!!

In January 2020, my husband and I bought a barn on 10 acres adjacent to our home property near Mancos, Colorado, and asked ourselves, "What do we do with it now? Since then we have renovated the top floor into a vacation rental and are in the process of renovating the bottom/main part of the barn into a gathering space. Join us on our journey! |
