Project Overview
Built For: High Country Air
Location: Black Forest, Colorado (El Paso County)
Building Type: Pole Barn (Post Frame) with greenhouse lean-to
Size: 42’ × 60’ with 16’ walls
Built: 2026
Approximate Cost: About $120,000, priced in 2025, including 4” concrete with rebar, permitting and engineering, but not dirt work
Every project is custom and priced accordingly, so this cost is an example and not a quote. Site conditions like hitting rock, permit costs and snow load engineering can all play a big part in the final price.
Enclosed Greenhouse Lean-To
The 30×12×12 lean-to is enclosed as a greenhouse, with five 3×8 skylights and a continuous 8’ eave light. The milky panels let daylight in without being completely clear. The lean-to has no overhangs.
Stone-Look Wainscot
A stone-look metal wainscot wraps the building below the sidewalls. The building also has three 36” walk-in doors and three 3×4 insulated single-hung windows.
20×20 Loft With Stairs
The 20×20 loft sits 8’ high with wood stairs and railings. Metal on the interior ceiling finishes the space overhead, with an attic entrance for access above it.
Inside the Greenhouse
Inside the lean-to, the skylights and translucent walls fill the space with daylight, and a walk-in door connects it to the main building.
