Compact Modern Farmhouse with Big Personality – ~1,085 Sq Ft, 2 Beds, 2 Baths

Looking for a home that feels like a breath of fresh farmhouse air—smart-sized, cozy, and oh-so-inviting? This ~1,085 sq ft Modern Farmhouse delivers with two bedrooms, two full baths, and wraparound porches that nearly double your living

space (porch hat not required).

Farmhouse Facade That Says “Hello Beautiful”

Clean board-and-batten siding, symmetrical windows, and a wide front porch invite guests in and gently whisper, “Stay a while.” It’s the kind of curb appeal that makes neighbors nod with approval (and maybe a twinge of porch envy).

Your Great Room & Kitchen—All the Essentials, None of the Waste

Step inside to a pleasant open layout where kitchen, living, and dining flow seamlessly under 9-foot ceilings. The kitchen stands ready with a smart island and pantry space that reads “organized” even when you’re not. It’s functional, friendly, and makes multitasking feel like a breeze.

Bedrooms That Don’t Overstay Their Welcome

The two bedrooms are perfectly sized and private, with full baths—not half baths pretending to be guests. Whether you’re hosting, living happily solo, or sharing with a roommate, they work for everyone.

Open Porch–Closed Roof = Genius Living

Wraparound porches (256 sq ft front, 273 sq ft rear totaling ~529 sq ft of outdoor living) add serious charm—and usable space. Picture morning coffee in the sun, evening chats under fairy lights, or just stretching the day out in breezy comfort.
