01 — Overview
What We Build

Party Barn Construction Done Right

Party barns are uniquely Alabama. Detached entertainment buildings — covered, semi-enclosed, often with a kitchen, bathroom, TV wall, and bar — built for tailgating, family gatherings, and lake weekends. They sit somewhere between an outbuilding and a second residence.

Old Number One Customs builds party barns across Auburn, Opelika, Lake Martin, and Alexander City. Pole barns, stick-built barns, hybrid structures with full kitchens — sized for game day, family reunions, and lake-house weekends.

Project Types

Configurations We Build

Open-air party barns

Covered open structures with concrete slab, ceiling fans, lighting, and rough-in for outdoor kitchen and bar. Most common configuration.

Semi-enclosed party barns

Three-sided structures with one wall open to a yard — gives wind protection without giving up the outdoor feel.

Fully enclosed party barns

Conditioned interior space — full HVAC, insulation, kitchen, bath. Usable year-round, including winter game days.

Game-day pavilions

Smaller covered pavilions sized for tailgating crews — concrete slab, lighting, TV mount, sound system rough-in.

Lake party barns

Larger lake-property party barns for boat parking on one end, entertainment on the other. Includes shoreline coordination.

Barndominium-style

Hybrid party barn / living space builds — common when an owner wants entertainment space plus a guest suite or future primary residence.

03 — FAQ
Common Questions

What Homeowners Ask

How much does a party barn cost in Auburn, AL?

An open-air party barn runs $75,000 to $180,000 in the Auburn-Opelika market. Fully enclosed conditioned party barns with kitchens and baths run $200,000 to $450,000. Use the configurator for a tier-based estimate.

How long does it take to build a party barn?

Ten to sixteen weeks for an open-air party barn. Five to seven months for a fully enclosed and conditioned party barn with finished kitchen and bath.

Do I need a permit for a party barn?

Yes. Party barns require a building permit in Auburn, Opelika, and Lee County. The permit class depends on whether the structure is conditioned, has plumbing, and how it's classified — accessory structure or accessory dwelling. We sort this before design.

Can a party barn be used as a rental venue?

Commercial event rental is a different zoning use than personal entertainment, and most residential parcels aren't zoned for it. We can build something that's compliant for personal use; commercial event venues require their own zoning and permitting path.

Do you build party barns on Lake Martin?

Yes — Lake Martin is one of our most active markets for party barns. Many are built into sloped lake lots with boat parking on the water side.
