It spans an impressive 3,070 square feet, offering a wide and inviting layout that promises ample space inside.
As you transition from the crisp white exterior and welcoming covered porches to the generous interiors, you’ll discover a home organized for both social gatherings and personal privacy.
Each room serves its purpose, whether you’re hosting a crowd or unwinding after a long day.
Let’s explore this design from the start.

The Floor Plans:
Covered Front Porch
You’ll begin your tour at the covered front porch. This space feels like an invitation to pause and relax before stepping inside.
The porch is wide enough to accommodate rocking chairs, and with its sturdy gable roof and tall glass doors, it sets a welcoming tone for the rest of the house.
I can picture neighbors stopping by to chat on summer evenings as the sun sets.
Foyer
Entering through the front door, you’re welcomed by a foyer that feels both open and defined.
It’s just wide enough to make a statement without wasting space.
You’ll greet your guests here, and if you’re like me, this is where you’ll drop your keys in a bowl by the door.
From here, you can see straight into the living area, giving you an immediate sense of the home’s openness.
Dining Room
Right off the foyer, the dining room is perfectly placed for formal dinners and everyday meals.
With clear sight lines to the kitchen and living room, holiday gatherings would flow smoothly.
The room’s generous proportions and natural light from the front windows make it bright and inviting.
Living Room
As you move further into the home, the living room really opens up. You’ll notice the tall ceilings and wide layout, making this space flexible for any furniture arrangement.
There’s enough wall space for a substantial entertainment setup, and room for cozy reading chairs or even a piano.
The living room connects directly to the kitchen and has easy access to the screened porch, enhancing its versatility.
Kitchen
The kitchen is the hub here, designed for real living. You’ll spot the large island immediately; it’s positioned so you can chat with anyone in the living room while preparing meals.
There’s ample room for meal prep, and the flow to the pantry makes unloading groceries much easier.
I love how you can see directly onto the covered porch. If you enjoy entertaining, the kitchen’s openness ensures you’re never cut off from the action.
Pantry
Positioned behind the kitchen, the pantry is surprisingly spacious. You can keep all your staples organized with room for bulk shopping and small appliances.
I think having a pantry like this enhances the kitchen’s functionality—you can keep the counters clear while still having everything within reach.
Covered Porch
Right off the kitchen, sliding doors lead to the covered porch. This spot perfectly bridges indoor and outdoor living.
It’s shaded from the midday sun, allowing you to enjoy dinner outside comfortably. The covered porch also connects to the screened porch, providing options depending on the season.
Screened Porch (Rear)
When you want to be outside but still protected, the screened porch is ideal. This space is big enough for a full seating area or dining furniture.
I can imagine slow mornings here with coffee or long evenings with friends, safe from mosquitoes and rain.
The ceiling height adds a breezy, open feel, and access to the owner’s suite means this porch can double as a private retreat.
Owner’s Suite
The owner’s suite is secluded in its own wing, offering unmatched privacy. Head through the short hallway to enter a bedroom spacious enough for a king bed and a sitting area.
Tall ceilings and windows overlooking the backyard create a restful vibe. Direct access to the screened porch is a feature I truly appreciate; it means you can step outside without going through the main living spaces.
Owner’s Bath
The attached bath is both practical and a bit luxurious. There’s a double vanity with ample storage, a large walk-in shower, and a soaking tub that feels like a real treat.
Natural light keeps things bright, and the layout makes morning routines smooth. The bath connects directly to the walk-in closet, simplifying the process of getting ready.
Walk-In Closet (Owner’s Suite)
This closet is huge, with space for built-ins, an island for folding, and plenty of hanging storage.
There’s even a dedicated “fold” area, perfect for laundry days.
I think a closet like this is the kind of everyday luxury you quickly become accustomed to.
Laundry/Mud Room
Moving towards the garage, the laundry/mud room is a workhorse. There’s a full wall for washers and dryers, cabinets for supplies, and even a spot to fold clothes.
This is where muddy boots or school bags can be dropped before entering the main living areas.
There’s direct access to the garage and an extra coat closet for quick storage.
Pet Center
If you have pets, you’ll appreciate the dedicated pet center right by the laundry zone.
It’s a smart feature that shows the designer considered all family members.
You could use this nook for feeding stations or as a spot to store leashes and toys.
Garage (Main and Side)
This home comes with two garages: a larger one at the front and a smaller, separate bay to the side.
There’s room for multiple vehicles, bikes, or even a golf cart.
The side garage has an attached storage/shop area that could easily double as a workspace or spot for weekend projects.
Bedroom #2
Heading back to the other side of the house, Bedroom #2 sits in its own private corner.
It comes with a walk-in closet, providing plenty of storage space, and it’s positioned near the study—ideal if you need a home office or a quiet spot for homework.
Study
Whether you work from home or need a quiet reading nook, the study offers privacy without being completely shut off from the rest of the house.
With front-facing windows and easy access to both the living room and Bedroom #2, it’s easy to adapt this space for anything from Zoom calls to creative projects.
Bedroom #3
Bedroom #3 is located towards the front of the house, making it ideal for younger kids or guests.
It’s got its own walk-in closet and is just steps from a full bath, so visitors can stay comfortably without feeling like they’re right in the middle of the main action.
Bath (Shared for Bedrooms 2 & 3)
This bath serves both secondary bedrooms and features a double vanity, so no one has to fight for mirror space in the morning.
The tub/shower combo keeps things flexible for both kids and guests, and its location ensures it can handle the morning rush without disturbing the rest of the house.
Coat Closet
Just off the foyer and laundry area, this closet is perfectly placed for storing jackets, backpacks, and everyday grab-and-go items.
It’s a small detail, but one that makes daily life run a bit smoother.
Now let’s see what the upper level offers.
Stairs and Upper Landing
Head up the stairs, located just beside the owner’s suite and laundry room. The landing is compact but practical, connecting directly to the bonus space and an upstairs powder bath.
Optional Bonus Room
This bonus room is a real wild card. It stretches across the upper level, providing 16 by 22 feet of flexible space.
You could turn it into a game room, home theater, gym, or even a quiet retreat for teenagers.
There’s a bit of separation from the main living areas below, so noise isn’t an issue.
I love how this space adapts easily as families grow and change.
Powder Room (Upstairs)
Right at the top of the stairs, you’ll find a handy powder room. It enhances the bonus room’s usability, whether you’re hosting guests for movie night or just want a bathroom nearby while exercising.
You don’t have to run up and down the stairs every time, which is a subtle but important convenience.
Back on the main level, there are a couple of exterior and circulation spaces worth noting.
Screened Porch (Left Side)
Connected to the owner’s suite and the kitchen area, this screened porch is the perfect spot for outdoor dining or evening lounging.
The screens keep it bug-free, and its position at the back of the house provides privacy with a view of your backyard.
Storage/Shop (Garage)
Right off the smaller garage, there’s a dedicated shop or storage area. Whether you’re storing holiday decorations, organizing tools, or need a place for messy hobbies, this extra room keeps clutter out of sight.
Final Thoughts
This home is all about balance—plenty of open spaces for gatherings, but just as many quiet corners for privacy.
I think the layout works especially well for families who want both togetherness and their own retreats, with smart features like the pet center and huge pantry making everyday life just a little easier.
The connection between indoor and outdoor spaces stands out, especially with those generous porches and patios.
Whether you need room for entertaining, hobbies, or just relaxing, this design offers a little something for everyone.
