Your Carson City Barndominium Builder

Serving Clients in Western Nevada Since 2002

Tucked between the Sierra Nevada and the Great Basin, Carson City is a scenic and historic city where rural living meets modern convenience. Whether you’re building a primary residence on acreage, a home with shop space, or a second home close to Lake Tahoe and Reno, a custom barndominium offers the space, style, and versatility to bring your vision to life. At DC Builders, we specialize in wood-framed barndominiums tailored to Northern Nevada’s climate and lifestyle—designed for long-term durability and total customization.
