It is if you have knee-high rubber boots and a clothes pin to put on your nose.

 :shrug:

I have lived in a barndo (think condo) many times. A horse ranch foreman is likely to live in the birthing apartment in the barn with the horses. That is a sparse but modern one room apt. built next to the large birthing stall, so there is some ease while keeping an eye on a troublesome birth.

Another such arrangement... Folks opening a new ranch tend to be shy of money... So they will build a fully appointed multi-room apartment above the barn to save money... The ranch family will live there till they recover from the purchase of the land enough to build a proper house.

This space invariably gets converted to foreman's quarters and the ranch office.
Very common, and decent digs.

Yeah,but none of that applies to the barn in the photo. Chances are there has been a house on that farm for 100+ years.

I believe the house is across the street on the left...there's a mailbox.   Will check it out the next time I visit.

@sneakypete

Perhaps. But were I to acquire the property, and the house were too far gone to inhabit, I would think nothing of turning half that hay mow into quarters and living above the barn for a few years.

Jussayin. It's done all the time.

@DCPatriot

You are probably right. Look at how close the paved road is to the barn. I  would bet money it follows the path of the original dirt road. People wanted their barns close to the road back then because they relied on horses or mules and a buggy,and it made things easier.

Most wanted the farm house a little further away in civilized parts of the country where they didn't have to worry so much about wolves and other animals attacking the livestock,though. By the late 1800's,that wasn't much of a problem in the North East part of the country.

The barn looks like it has a Dairy House attached, on the left....

TONS of old homesteads around with huge dairy barns... Dairy don't work out for many like it once did.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

You betcha! I'd love to see ALL the angles,even though that kind of thing usually turns me into a bigger babbling fool that normal.

I am fairly certain she could have her way with me if she tried.
