Here’s a barn-inspired house plan with a classic gambrel roof. The well-designed layout gives you an island kitchen that overlooks the vaulted great room, which includes a warm fireplace. Check out the extra-spacious pantry.

The primary suite rests on the main level (making it easy to age in place) and shows off a super-generous closet, a big shower, and a separate tub. A guest room could also become a home office. Upstairs, you’ll find four bedrooms and two double-vanity bathrooms. Don’t miss the versatile loft space.

Board-and-batten siding, a metal gable roof (plus a gambrel roof), and a wide front porch highlight the exterior of this classic country design. You’ll find plenty of room for storage in the two-car garage and the handy mudroom (which gives you a bench with hooks). The foyer sits between the study and the morning room.

The island kitchen opens to the dining room and the great room, encouraging modern living. Sliding glass doors open to the covered patio out back. Residing on the main level, the primary suite offers a deluxe bathroom and a large walk-in closet. A bedroom suite, two additional bedrooms, and a bathroom wait upstairs. Need room to expand? Note the unfinished in-law suite.

The primary suite impresses with a spa-like bathroom and direct access to the laundry room. Two secondary bedrooms share a bathroom on the left side of the plan. Check out the three-car garage, which gives you a big storage closet. The second level hosts a sleeping loft and a bathroom.
