There’s something about a modern farmhouse that draws you in, but this one really stands out.
You get all the charm—crisp white siding, a big wraparound porch, striking black windows—paired with practical, livable spaces built for today’s busy life.
With 5 bedrooms spread across two well-planned levels, this home feels both expansive and connected, with plenty of little surprises waiting around each corner.
Let’s explore it together and see how every square foot is put to good use.

The Floor Plans:
8′ Covered Porch
Right away, the wraparound porch sets the tone. I can imagine relaxing here with an iced tea, enjoying the view of the landscaped yard.
The porch is broad enough for rocking chairs, big planters, or even a hanging swing.
Since it wraps along the front, you’ll always have that perfect spot for chatting with neighbors or just soaking up a quiet evening.
The covered design also provides a practical entryway for guests, especially on rainy days.
Entry to Great Room
As soon as you come in, the great room welcomes you with its impressive sense of space.
Double-height ceiling and massive windows flood the room with sunlight from every angle. The white walls, pale wood floors, and that dramatic stone fireplace create a cozy atmosphere.
Seating is generous and flexible, so you can easily host a crowd, but it never feels overwhelming.
Kids can sprawl on the rug for board games, or you can curl up by the fire and watch a storm roll in.
The openness here really makes an impact, especially since the room flows right into the kitchen.
You can keep an eye on dinner while still being part of the conversation, or simply enjoy the view out those tall windows.
Kitchen
The kitchen connects directly with the great room. At the center, there’s an inviting, oversized island with seating for five.
I think this spot is perfect for breakfast, homework, baking projects, and catching up with family all at once.
Crisp white cabinetry, a marble-look backsplash, and a pale blue island brighten the entire area.
With the oversized stainless fridge and a built-in oven, you have all the storage and prep space you could need.
The kitchen is open but not completely exposed, so you can be part of the activity without feeling like you’re on display.
Pantry
Just off the kitchen, you’ll find a walk-in pantry. It’s spacious and set apart from the main space, making it perfect for keeping snacks, bulk goods, and small appliances organized.
There’s enough room to store groceries for a crowd or prep for the holidays. This setup helps keep your counters clear, so everything looks tidy and feels ready for daily life.
Master Suite
On the private side of the main floor, the master suite offers a true retreat.
The bedroom itself is oversized, with large windows that keep things light and airy. Its location at the back of the house makes it feel secluded.
There’s plenty of space for a reading chair or a writing desk by the window.
I appreciate that it’s set apart from the main living spaces, so you can really unwind at the end of the day.
Master Bath
Connected to the master suite, the master bath is laid out for both efficiency and relaxation.
You’ll find a large shower, a soaking tub, and a double vanity. The linen closet inside the bath keeps towels and essentials within reach, and the overall design ensures there’s plenty of space for two people to get ready.
The calm, fresh feel makes it a perfect spot to start or end your day.
Master Closet
Directly off the master bath, the walk-in closet is generous in size. Built-ins offer space for both hanging and folded clothes, with enough room to spread out and stay organized.
I noticed that the closet is positioned away from the sleeping area, helping keep things quiet and clutter-free—ideal when you want a peaceful bedroom.
Guest Bedroom / Office
Near the front of the home, you’ll find a flexible guest bedroom. The layout keeps it private, yet it’s easily accessible, so it works well for overnight visitors or as a home office.
There’s a large closet, and it’s close to a full bath, making it practical for longer stays or multigenerational living.
I like that it could just as easily become a quiet workspace, since it’s separate from the busiest parts of the house.
Guest Bath
This bathroom serves the guest bedroom with a shower and a smart, efficient layout. It’s positioned for privacy and easy access from the front room.
Since it’s near the front entry, the bath can also work as a convenient powder room for guests, so no one has to wander far.
Half Bath
Just off the main hallway, you’ll find a dedicated half bath. This is perfect for quick stops, like coming in from the garage or when you have friends over.
No need to use the private bedroom baths—this one is set aside from the main living spaces, making it practical for a busy household.
Laundry
The laundry room on the main floor is centrally located and surprisingly roomy. There’s space for washer and dryer, plus a counter for folding.
Since it’s close to the master suite, hauling laundry is easy. A bench with hanging space lets you drop off coats or backpacks as you come in, helping keep daily clutter in check.
I think families will really appreciate how this area supports daily routines.
Storage (Main Floor)
Located near the garage entry, the storage room is a practical feature that makes everyday life easier.
It’s an ideal spot for keeping seasonal decorations, sports gear, or anything else you don’t want cluttering up the main living areas.
Its location by the garage keeps it easily accessible for quick drop-offs.
Tandem Garage
The tandem garage here is impressive, stretching almost the full depth of the house. There’s space for multiple vehicles, tools, bikes, and even a small workshop if you’re handy.
Wide doors provide easy access, and the attached storage room keeps things organized. I like the flexibility this garage gives you, whether you’re working on weekend projects or just managing family life.
Main Level Circulation
Getting around the main floor feels easy and natural. Wide hallways, open sightlines, and logical connections between rooms make the flow straightforward.
The centrally located staircase helps the upstairs feel connected to the rest of the home.
Upstairs Landing
At the top of the stairs, the landing is open to below, giving you a view over the great room.
This double-height design fills the space with light and keeps the upstairs connected to everything happening downstairs.
You can hear laughter from the kitchen or see who’s coming in the front door, all without feeling removed from the action.
The landing is wide, making it a comfortable space as rooms branch off in every direction.
Bedroom 3
Bedroom 3 stretches across the back of the house. It’s large, with its own dedicated closet and direct access to a full bath.
This setup is great for teens or older kids who want some independence. The big windows keep things bright, and the room feels private thanks to its location away from most of the activity.
Bath (Upstairs, Bedroom 3)
The full bath next to Bedroom 3 includes a tub and a large vanity, with plenty of space for morning routines. A linen closet in the hallway keeps towels and sheets close, making things more convenient.
Bedroom 4
Bedroom 4 sits at the center of the upstairs floor. With a sizable closet and easy access to another full bath, it works well for siblings or guests.
The proximity to the bonus room is a nice bonus for anyone who wants quick access to fun or relaxation.
Storage (Upstairs)
A second storage room is located right off the hallway upstairs. This extra space is a smart addition—you can keep off-season clothes, extra bedding, or anything else out of the bedrooms.
Bath (Upstairs, Shared)
Another full bath upstairs sits just off the main hallway. It has an efficient layout and a spot for linens, making it easy for Bedrooms 4 and 5 to share.
The location is convenient, so everyone can get to it without a long walk or feeling crowded.
Bedroom 5
Down the hall, Bedroom 5 is similar in size to the downstairs guest suite. With its own closet and easy access to the shared bath, it’s versatile—ideal for a younger child, visiting family, or a second office.
The nearby upstairs storage and laundry make this part of the home especially functional.
Upstairs Laundry
A second laundry room upstairs is a real luxury. It makes it simple to handle laundry from all the bedrooms on this level.
No more hauling baskets up and down stairs—just toss clothes in after a busy week and you’re set.
I think anyone with a big family or frequent guests will appreciate having this option.
Bonus Room
At the far end of the upper floor, the bonus room offers an enormous, flexible space.
With nearly as much room as the garage below, you could set it up as a playroom, home theater, gym, or a massive studio.
Nearby storage closets make it easy to keep clutter under control. I love how this area adapts as your needs change.
Upstairs Circulation and “Open to Below”
Upstairs, the layout stands out because every room connects around the central open to below area.
Light fills both levels, so you never feel separated from the living spaces downstairs. If you’re heading to the bonus room or just crossing to a bedroom, the house always feels cohesive and bright.
As you walk through this home, you notice a sense of balance—private retreats and lively gathering spots, spaces for relaxing and connecting.
Every room is designed to support daily life, ready for anything from quiet mornings to big celebrations.
With its mix of storage, flexibility, and natural light, I think this is a home that truly grows and evolves with you.
