This "barn" sits on the corner of Roanoke Road and Catawba in Daleville. When we first moved here in 2008 I was so excited to see this antique store housed in a barn, until I turned the corner and realized it was closed and hadn't been open in quite some time. I think when I first saw it the word "antique" was a little more visible than now. I would love for someone to buy this and fix it all up and re-open again as an antique/prims shop...although it does look like it needs quite a bit of fixing up.
Linking up with Tricia and Barn Charm :)
Old beauty.

But the barn does say "usable"! :-)
ReplyDeleteoh, i love the lighting. such a rustic old barn. (:
ReplyDeleteI like the look of the peeling paint.
ReplyDeleteI pass it often too, Tanya, and would love if someone would save it from it's demise. I bet it was an awesome antique store at one time.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great barn shot! It's too bad the antiques shop closed. Thanks for visiting me! Have a great week. Pamela
ReplyDeleteYes, it does look like it needs lots of work. That's what makes all your barns look so amazing. Imagine a brand new barn - not so interesting!
ReplyDeleteGreat photograph!! I'll bet it was a fun place to visit when it was still open! :)
ReplyDeletelove the 'useables' - especially with the hanging 's'. too cool!
ReplyDeleteNice old barn. Terrific photo!
ReplyDeleteNice barn shot.
ReplyDeleteRegards and best wishes
It does look like it needs quite a bit of work, but it certainly has potential & would make an awesome antique store! WoW!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for joining, Tanya =)
I never thought about a barn for an antique shop, but would make a wonderful one. Wish you had got to see it before it closed.
ReplyDeleteHi Tanya, found your husbands name ancestor in Alamo. Put it in my blog here...

What a shame the ol' gal isn't still an antique shop. She is lovely!
ReplyDeleteNice barn, and its a pity that it was left to fall apart .... in Northern VA off of 28 there are also great looking barns peppered all over the place. I do love photos like these... great catch.
ReplyDeleteHi Tanya, I tag the photo at Google+ check it out. Very much welcome!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great place to explore and to get in trouble - if I were a kid!!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous capture Tanya! :-) Wish I had the money to buy it, fix it up and re-open it as an antique shop...
ReplyDeleteHoping that this barn will be re-opened and become an antique store soon. If I have the money I could have bought it Tanya :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a disappointment to not be antiques, it does look like it would have been an excellent place.
ReplyDeleteFirst one I've ever seen with windows.
ReplyDeleteOld barns definitely do have a lot of charm!
