Classic Family Farmhouse
Plan 929-60
This 3,102-square-foot home includes four bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, and lots of space to relax with loved ones close by. From the exterior, a covered front porch pays homage to traditional farmhouse style (with a dash of Craftsman style via the trusses on the gables), but modern fixtures and smart details instantly modernize this home. Beyond the front porch, a foyer with a two-story ceiling leads either directly to the second level or toward the home’s main living area. This main space comprises a great room, combined dining area and kitchen with two islands, and access to the screen porch, covered porch, and patio. Toward the front of the home, the flex room would make a good work-from-home space. The main level is made complete by the primary suite, which includes a sizable bedroom, dual walk-in closets, and a bathroom with double vanities. Also, check out that tub!
Upstairs, three additional bedrooms make hosting guests a breeze or can serve as lots of space for kids to relax. Two full bathrooms add to the home’s convenience and this level is equipped with lots of closet space, too. A second-floor bonus room makes the perfect place to relax with family or gives children their own space to hang out with friends. The second-floor hallway is open to the great room below as well, making your home feel grand.
Modern Farmhouse for a Narrow(ish) Lot
Plan 929-1064
Perfect for a smaller property, this home’s narrow(ish) design does not sacrifice any square footage. At 2,885 square feet and including four bedrooms, this space-saving design doesn’t skimp on amenities. Beyond the contemporary exterior, this home opens with a two-story foyer with a versatile bedroom/study space with its own bathroom directly to the left. Straight ahead, the main living space invites guests to relax by the fireplace, beneath the room’s coffered ceiling. A kitchen with a center island and dining space at the rear of the home complete the main entertaining space, leading onto the porch and patio for outdoor relaxation. Back inside, the primary suite completes the first floor and includes a walk-in closet and a bathroom with double sinks.
The second floor is the ideal hub for children to enjoy their own spaces, including two bedrooms with a shared bathroom, a fun rec room, and even a bonus room that can be finished to include a full bathroom. Lots of closet space on this level makes storage simple, too.
Country-Style Modern Farmhouse
Plan 929-699
With a spacious front porch complimented by gables and bay windows, this home is rich with traditional charm. Guests are welcomed in through a foyer with a cathedral ceiling, which is bordered by the formal dining room to the left and a flexible study/bedroom to the right. Straight ahead, the great room leads onto the back deck, with the kitchen and breakfast nook just steps away. Across the home, the owners have their own private suite, including two walk-in closets and a bathroom with double sinks.
On the upper level, two bedrooms give children or guests their own spaces and are connected by a walkway that overlooks the great room. A full bathroom makes second-floor living convenient, while a bonus room provides lots of room to relax.
Modern Farmhouse with an Angled Garage
Plan 929-1130
This modern farmhouse owes its unique shape to a front-facing angled garage with a mudroom that contributes to this plan’s convenience and family-friendliness. Inside, the main foyer is flanked by the formal dining room and two guest bedrooms that enjoy use of the hall bathroom. Ahead, the main living space includes a connected kitchen and great room, which offer access to the screen porch and the patio. Back inside, the main level is completed by the primary suite, which comprises a bedroom with a cathedral ceiling, a walk-in closet, and a bathroom with dual sinks. Around the corner, a flight of stairs leads to a bonus space above the garage, which can act as a hangout space for kids.
Sweet Three-Bedroom Design
Plan 929-1116
This beautiful home is fronted by a welcoming front porch that leads into the home’s foyer. To the right, the main dining space is perfect for hosting guests and just a short walk to the combined great room and kitchen, which offers a cozy breakfast nook, as well. Outside, a screen porch and patio encourage you to enjoy soft evenings outside before retiring to either of the first-floor bedrooms. The primary bedroom includes two walk-in closets and a bathroom with dual sinks, while the second bedroom space can also double as a study for those in need of in-home office space. On the second floor, a bonus room and bedroom have use of a full bathroom with double sinks, which makes the second floor the perfect place for guests or children to make their own. Outside, the garage is easily accessed through a covered passageway adjacent to the porch.
Modern Farmhouse with a Small Footprint
Plan 929-1107
Catching your eye with a duo of trussed gables, this modern farmhouse is perfect for a smaller lot without sacrificing its traditional charm. The 1,398-square-foot floor plan includes a foyer that opens into the great room, with a formal dining room to the left. A cathedral ceiling draws your gaze up, with a skylight drawing natural light into the kitchen. To the right of the home, the primary suite features a walk-in closet, bathroom with double sinks, and nearby additional hall closet space for linens and other necessities. On the opposite side of the space, two bedrooms have use of the full hall bathroom. Wind down at the end of a long day on the deck or patio.
