Your Coeur d’Alene Barndominium Builder

Serving Clients in Northern Idaho Since 2002

From the clear waters of Lake Coeur d’Alene to the dense forests and rolling mountains that surround it, Coeur d’Alene offers a dream setting for those seeking a life closer to nature. Whether you’re building a lake-view retreat, a multigenerational home, or a shop-style barndominium with space to work and play, DC Builders is here to help. Our custom wood-framed barndominiums are crafted for long-term durability and total lifestyle flexibility—built to thrive in North Idaho’s four-season climate.

What We Do

DC Builders is a national design-build firm with deep experience creating high-performance barndominiums across the West. We manage every stage of your build in-house—from design and engineering to framing, interiors, and project management—ensuring a seamless, efficient, and personalized experience from start to finish.

For clients seeking a faster build timeline or pre-approved models, we also offer customizable barndominium kits through our sister company, DC Structures. These pre-engineered kits are ideal for rural or lakeside properties in Kootenai County and beyond.
