Budget Friendly Modern Farmhouse Plan with Bonus Room

This charming one-level modern farmhouse stretches across approximately 2,077 sq ft. It offers 3 bedrooms (expandable to 4), 2.5 to 3.5 baths depending on options, a 2-car side-entry garage, and a versatile 372 sq ft bonus room above—perfect for a guest suite, playroom, or office.

Exterior & Curb Charm

A welcoming formal entry opens into a modern yet cozy façade with board-and-batten siding and an optional vaulted great room setting—adding warmth and visual appeal.

Living & Kitchen Flow

The formal entry and dining room flow into a spacious living area, with a vaulted ceiling option that starts at a 10-ft sidewall and peaks at 16 ft 9 in. This dramatic volume sets a grand yet cozy tone. The adjacent kitchen includes a 3’8″ × 6′ prep island with seating and a generous walk-in pantry overlooking the rear porch.

Bedroom Layout & Storage

The three main bedrooms offer flexibility and comfort; each comes with a large walk-in closet. You can reconfigure the bonus space above the garage to serve as a fourth bedroom or extended living space if needed.

Outdoor & Basement Options

Front and rear porches (192 sq ft and 283 sq ft, respectively) connect indoor and outdoor living. The slab foundation includes an option for a basement stairwell, offering expansion flexibility.
