Years ago we had one setup between the house and shop like your talking about. If I remember right we pulled a regular 4 wire phone cable from the outside connection to the shop where we hooked just like you would on any other phone. If you picked up a reciever on one end and dialed your own number the reciever on the other end would ring and you could talk to each other over the open line. I haven't tried anything like this in years so I don't know if all the new technology has changed things but it used to work. If you can talk to each other on the open line but the phoning yourself doesn't work anymore try this. Hook up the phone like you normally would, only this time use the extra wires for a low voltage, stand alone, signal bell on each end. Put 12VDC to one of the wires and switch it to a bell at each end. If this still doesn't work you should still be able to use a regular phone and phone wire. You just have to figure out what voltage the phone needs to work and wire everything appropriately. Good luck.
