Exterior & Curb Appeal
This transitional farmhouse design blends modern sophistication with rustic charm. The front façade features a balanced mix of board-and-batten siding, gables, and warm wood accents around the entry, paired with a dark roofline for contrast. Large windows invite natural light throughout the home, while the side-entry garage integrates seamlessly into the overall aesthetic. The rear of the house impresses with a wide 32’ by 20’ porch, complete with an outdoor kitchen and fireplace, extending living spaces to the outdoors.
Porches & Outdoor Living
Outdoor living is central to this plan. The expansive rear porch includes vaulted ceilings, a built-in island with bar seating, and a wood-burning fireplace with space for a TV above, making it ideal for entertaining. The porch flows naturally into the backyard for poolside living or relaxed family gatherings. The front porch, measuring 15’ by 4’8”, adds an inviting welcome, while a side porch provides additional access from the mudroom.
Main Floor Layout
The interior centers around a stunning great room measuring 20’ by 20’, featuring a vaulted ceiling that rises to 17’ and accented with wood beams. The open design connects seamlessly to the dining room (13’4” by 11’) with tray ceiling and the kitchen (17’6” by 20’9”) that boasts an oversized island, pantry, and abundant workspace. A foyer anchors the front entry, creating a smooth transition into the shared spaces. The mudroom, laundry (7’6” by 9’4”), and storage areas enhance functionality and connect directly to the 2-car garage (24’ by 26’2”).
Bedrooms & Bathrooms
The master suite offers a private retreat, measuring 15’6” by 15’0” with tray ceilings. The luxurious master bath includes dual vanities, a spa shower, and a large soaking tub. A spacious master closet (11’4” by 10’9”) connects conveniently to the laundry area. On the opposite side of the home, three additional bedrooms provide ample space for family or guests. Bedroom 2 measures 12’0” by 10’6”, Bedroom 3 is 12’2” by 14’9”, and Bedroom 4 is 12’0” by 14’9”. These rooms share two full bathrooms and a powder room for guests.
Bonus Room Option
Above the garage, a versatile bonus room expands the living space. Measuring 16’5” by 19’0”, this room with a 9’ ceiling and sloped walls includes its own bathroom, making it perfect for use as a media room, playroom, or guest suite. This addition increases the home’s adaptability for evolving family needs.
Additional Features
The home balances function with style through thoughtful details such as barn doors for the master suite, built-in storage, and strategically placed fireplaces indoors and out. A formal foyer and open flow between dining, kitchen, and living areas create both elegance and convenience.

The great room’s soaring ceilings create a dramatic focal point, while the rear porch with outdoor kitchen extends daily living outdoors. The split-bedroom layout ensures privacy for the master suite while keeping secondary bedrooms accessible. With a bonus room upstairs, the home is well-suited for multigenerational living or those needing flexible spaces.
