Live the dream in this feature-rich modern farmhouse plan that functions beautifully as both a primary residence or a vacation home, providing comfortable accommodations for any size family.
The Floor Plans:
Main Level
Front Porch
You’ll step first onto the expansive front porch, divided into two generous 10-foot deep sections—ideal spots for morning coffee or late evening relaxation. There’s something charming about a front porch that sets a welcoming tone and provides ample outdoor space for socializing or just quietly soaking in the surroundings.
Foyer
Entering through the front door, you are greeted by a beautiful foyer accentuated by barrel-vaulted archways. This area creates a direct sightline into the home, hinting at the spacious and airy design within.
Great Room
The heart of the home, the great room, features two-story vaulted ceilings with exposed timber beams. This rustic yet elegant room is perfect for family gatherings or entertaining guests. Large windows flood this space with natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Kitchen
Just off the great room, the kitchen boasts an impressive 12-foot long island, providing ample workspace and seating. This is a dream space for any home cook, fostering an environment where cooking becomes a communal activity. The kitchen seamlessly transitions into the adjacent scullery/butler’s pantry, which extends into the formal dining room capable of seating 12 to 18 people—perfect for large family dinners or social gatherings.
Master Suite
To the right of the great room, the master suite serves as a luxurious retreat. The suite features two-story ceilings, French doors leading to the rear porch, and a cozy window seat. Beyond a serene sleeping area, the en suite wet bath with five fixtures offers a spa-like experience, and the expansive walk-in closet provides ample storage. Flanking the master suite entrance are two flex rooms, perfect for use as a home office, TV room, or additional guest spaces given their private closets and shared full bath.
Mudroom and Laundry Room
Entered easily from the 3-car side-entry garage, the mudroom is practical and well-placed, ensuring that outdoor gear doesn’t clutter the house. Adjacent is a spacious laundry room—convenient and functional, keeping the day-to-day chores streamlined and out of sight
Rear Porch
The rear porch, even larger than the front, offers abundant outdoor living space.
With a depth conducive to placing comfortable outdoor furniture and dining setups, it’s a space where you can envision many warm days and cozy nights spent relaxing or entertaining guests.
Upper Level
Bridge Corridor
Ascending to the second floor via the stairs from the great room, you’ll come upon the bridge corridor which not only offers sweeping views of the great room below but also integrates practical nooks and built-ins for homework or office needs—a thoughtful design for families with children.
Bedrooms
The upper level houses four generously sized bedrooms, each sharing direct access to ‘Jack-and-Jill’ bathrooms. This layout offers both privacy and convenience for a growing family, ensuring that morning rushes are handled with ease.
Recreational Spaces
An optionally finished basement plan provides immense versatility. Imagine having an additional kitchenette/bar area, which would make this lower level an entertainer’s paradise.
There’s also a second laundry room and direct outside access through the garage—features that substantiate the convenience and functionality of this space.
Guest Bedrooms
Two additional en suite guest bedrooms can be incorporated here, ensuring plenty of secluded space for visiting family members or friends. These rooms offer privacy and comfort, making them also ideal for AirBnB use if you choose to make extra income from your property.
Considerations and Enhancements
As you visualize yourself in this home, consider how the layout caters to various living needs:
- Versatile Flex Rooms: Do you need dedicated space for a home office, craft room, or guest sleeping space? The flex rooms near the master suite provide adaptable options that could cater uniquely to your lifestyle.
Outdoor Spaces: Both the front and rear porches are ample in size. Would you prefer specialized zones such as a grilling area, a fire pit, or maybe an outdoor play area for children?
Customization of the Basement: If you opt for the finished basement, think about how you might use the spacious recreational areas. A home gym, a movie room, or even a structured play area for children could all be brilliant uses of this space.
The beauty of this farmhouse layout is its ability to adapt to diverse needs, able to transition from a bustling family hub to a serene, relaxing vacation home with equal ease. Take into account your living style and consider these enhancements as ways to make this already stunning design fit you and your family perfectly.
