Hardy's Old General Store Pricing
Hardy’s Old General Store
Hardy’s Old General Store is built for homeowners who want a backyard building with instant, authentic-looking heritage character—the kind of weathered general-store presence that normally takes decades to earn. This model is for people who love the look of aged Appalachian structures but still want modern performance: a building that feels like it’s “been there forever,” while being built strong, straight, and dependable from day one.
As shown, the design captures true general-store proportions with a wide shed-roof porch overhang, oversized X-braced double doors that open up access and bring in light, and period-accurate details like an upper loft window that completes the silhouette. The signature element is the weathered gray finish system over a clean, durable build—so you get a controlled, consistent aged patina without relying on unpredictable reclaimed materials. Built on-site by **BlackRidge Structures in Cincinnati and the Tri-State area, it’s designed to stay square, dry, and dependable through real seasons—so the character you’re paying for remains beautiful and usable year after year.
Next step: choose your size and siding type to see transparent pricing, then we’ll confirm placement and access so the porch approach, door swing, and overall “front-of-building” presentation feel intentional on your property.

Premium Siding Overview — Built for Beauty and Strength
In Cincinnati and across the Tri-State, siding has to do more than look good—it has to perform through rain, humidity, snow, and temperature swings.
When you choose a siding style for your Appalachian-inspired backyard building, you’re choosing protection, maintenance level, and long-term curb appeal. That’s why Blackridge Structures offers siding options selected for real-world durability and a finish that still looks right beside a quality home.
Every siding option is chosen for:
- Weather-ready durability in real Tri-State conditions
- Long-term appearance that holds its character over time
- Lower-maintenance ownership to reduce upkeep without sacrificing value
- Authentic Appalachian style with timeless lines and texture
Bottom line: your building should function like a small structure, not a backyard decoration—built to protect what’s inside and enhance your property year after year.

American Lumber Pine Tongue & Groove (Solid Pine)
Authentic Appalachian character in every board—real wood warmth with a handcrafted finish.
- Regional craftsmanship — solid pine siding milled by American Lumber (Hebron, Ohio) for a true local-material feel.

- Flexible layout — tongue-and-groove profile installs vertical or horizontal to achieve barn-style lines or cozy cabin bands.
- Tight interlocking joints — clean seams with a secure fit that helps limit gaps and exposed edges.
- Built for exterior use with proper finishing — kiln-dried pine (and optional pretreatment) performs best when sealed, stained, or painted correctly.
- Ages with character — with periodic maintenance, pine develops a richer tone and a classic, lived-in patina.
- True heritage aesthetic — ideal for customers who want the most authentic “wood-built” Appalachian look.
Important note (recommended): Solid-wood siding requires ongoing finish maintenance to protect appearance and longevity.
