This striking transitional farmhouse blends classic charm with modern flair, spanning about 2,768 sq ft in a one-level layout (plus optional bonus). You get 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a **two-story vaulted great room**, and an **outdoor fireplace** that extends your living into nature. It’s open, warm, and purposeful.
Curb Appeal Meets Functional Design
Graced with board-and-batten siding, thoughtfully placed windows, and a clean roofline, the exterior promises farmhouse familiarity with modern balance.
The façade invites you in with understated elegance. The 2-story great room makes a dramatic first impression through the entrance, giving the home a feeling of openness from the get-go.
Great Room That Soars
The great room is the emotional center—vaulted, airy, and connecting visually to upstairs open space (if you finish it).
Imagine sitting in the living area, looking up across two levels, light filtering in from above. That vertical architecture adds depth and drama. Adjacent sliding or folding doors open to the outdoor fireplace space, extending your living zone naturally outdoors.
Kitchen, Dining & Flow
- Kitchen: Configured with both efficiency and gathering in mind—ample counter space, smart circulation, and a layout geared for conversation.
- Dining Area: Positioned to benefit from views and light, connecting kitchen to the outdoor zone with ease.
- Pantry & Mudroom: Off the garage entrance, making everyday life smoother—drop the groceries, slip off shoes, get straight to work.
Bedroom Layout & Privacy
The master suite is tucked away on one side, offering a retreat-like atmosphere.
It features a bathroom with dual vanities, and a walk-in closet. On the opposite side, two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill or well-located hall bath—ideal for family or guests.
Outdoor Fireplace: Hearth + Horizon
Step outside to a covered outdoor living space with a built-in fireplace. It’s made for seasonal enjoyment—cozy in cooler evenings, shaded during sunny afternoons, and a natural extension of your indoor life.
Bonus & Future Expansion
Optionally finish the space above (over parts like garages or wings) to create a bonus or flex room—perfect for guest quarters, gym, or media lounge when needed. The vertical volume of the great room gives possible visual connection between levels.
