There’s something magnetic about a modern farmhouse with crisp white siding and a trio of wood garage doors, especially when you see the symmetry and wide porches that make this place feel so welcoming.

This home stretches over 7,557 square feet with three full levels of living, including spaces for family, guests, and even in-laws.

From the moment you step on the porch, the blend of country charm and modern comfort sets the scene.

Let’s walk in, room by room, and see how each corner is designed with daily life in mind.

Specifications:

  • 7,557 Heated S.F.
  • 4 Beds
  • 5.5 Baths
  • 2 Stories
  • 4 Cars

The Floor Plans:

Porch

Before you even open the front door, you’re greeted by a spacious covered porch. Wide enough for rocking chairs or a porch swing, this spot really frames the entrance and offers a place to greet friends or watch the world go by.

The symmetry and neat landscaping visible in the front elevation give it a polished yet relaxed feel.

Foyer

Inside, the foyer welcomes you with an open layout that gives a clear line of sight into the main living spaces, while still providing just enough separation for privacy. There’s space for a console table or art, and the light pours in from nearby windows, making it easy to feel grounded the moment you arrive.

Gathering Room

Straight ahead, you walk into the gathering room. This impressive space measures 26 by 22 feet and naturally draws everyone in, thanks to the large windows along the rear wall that keep it bright all day.

With an open layout connecting to the kitchen and nook, you’ll always feel included in family nights or gatherings.

Nook

Just off the gathering room, the nook is sized for a casual dining table. Sunlight streams in from multiple directions, and the easy connection to both the kitchen and outdoor living means breakfast can spill outside on nice days.

I think this nook, though compact, is what keeps the kitchen feeling open and social.

Kitchen

The kitchen stands out with two generous islands, giving you loads of prep space and room for stools.

This is more than just a place to cook—it’s where people gather for homework, snacks, or catching up.

Storage is plentiful, and the layout makes everything easy to reach. The kitchen opens to the gathering room, so you’re always part of what’s happening.

Scullery

Tucked behind the kitchen, the scullery adds a real advantage. It’s a full prep kitchen with its own sink and extra storage, letting you stash away dishes or messy prep work when entertaining.

I find this space especially handy for keeping parties and family dinners stress-free, since the main kitchen stays tidy.

Powder Room

Nearby, you’ll find the powder room. It’s conveniently located for guests while still being a little out of the main flow, offering privacy and easy access from the main living areas.

Laundry

The main laundry room stretches nearly 20 feet, which means sorting, folding, and organizing can all happen in one place.

There’s ample counter space, plenty of storage, and a window to keep things bright. Located near the garage entry, this setup works well for muddy boots or sports gear, keeping messes contained.

2 Car Garages

You’ll have two double garages, each oversized, so parking is never a problem. The layout makes access easy, and there’s extra space for bikes, a workbench, or even a golf cart.

The mudroom entry from here makes unloading groceries or sports gear a breeze.

Amazon Room

Just inside from the garage, there’s a small Amazon room. It’s a clever feature—a secure spot for packages and deliveries.

You won’t need to worry about missing packages or soggy boxes. I appreciate this extra convenience for busy families.

One room that stands out is the gym, located close to both the foyer and the owners suite.

With its own windows and a generous footprint, this space makes it easy to prioritize health and wellness without leaving home.

Now to the owners suite, placed at the quiet end of the house for maximum privacy.

This suite is spacious, easily fitting a king bed and a sitting area. Dual walk-in closets lead the way to the ensuite bath, so there’s no bumping elbows in the morning.

I love how this suite feels secluded while still having quick access to the gym and gathering spaces.

Owners Bath (B.1)

The owners bath is a retreat all its own. You’ll enjoy dual vanities, a freestanding tub, a large walk-in shower, and plenty of storage.

There’s even room for a bench or makeup vanity. With two walk-in closets, getting ready stays organized and stress-free.

Step outside from the gathering room to a covered patio that’s truly expansive. Here, indoor comfort connects easily to outdoor living.

The space wraps around to the outdoor living area, offering lots of room for grilling, dining, or relaxing with a book.

The outdoor living area includes a spot ready for a summer kitchen or grill, plus plenty of space for lounge furniture.

Large sliding glass doors bring in those great views and connect the indoors to the outdoors.

I think this setup is perfect for summer parties or lazy weekends.

Casita

Set in the corner of the patio, the casita offers a flexible space for guests, in-laws, or even a home office. With its own private entrance, this 13 by 10-foot room is self-contained, making it easy to host longer-term visitors or use as a quiet creative studio.

Powder Room (Outdoor)

You’ll find an additional powder bath just off the outdoor living area. This keeps guests from having to walk through the house, keeping the main floors clean and the flow convenient during backyard gatherings.

Staircase

The main staircase sits at the center of the home, making the trip to the upper level easy and natural. Since it’s near the service areas, the upstairs stays connected to daily life while still feeling private.

Loft

At the top of the stairs, the loft spans over 30 feet. It’s an ideal hangout—great for a teen lounge, playroom, or even a second family room.

Windows fill the space with light and offer views over the porch. There’s plenty of room for comfy sofas, a game table, or a homework area.

Bed 3 and Bed 4

On one side of the loft are Bed 3 and Bed 4. Each room is generously sized and has a walk-in closet, which I think is a huge bonus for kids or teens.

The rooms are mirror images, which helps keep the peace between siblings.

Bath 3 and Bath 4

Each bedroom includes its own attached bathroom. Both have full showers and modern fixtures.

Having private en suites for every upstairs bedroom is a practical touch for families with older kids or frequent visitors.

A compact laundry and mechanical room is tucked off the main hall. You won’t need to lug baskets up and down stairs—this second laundry keeps life running smoothly, especially on busy mornings before school or work.

Unfinished Storage

There’s a large unfinished storage area upstairs, accessible from the main hall. I like how this space gives you plenty of options, whether you use it for seasonal storage, sports equipment, or even as a future hobby room.

Head to the far side of the upper level and you’ll discover a full in-law suite, giving long-term guests or family members true independence.

In-Law Living

The in-law living area is nearly as large as a small apartment. There’s room for a full seating area, dining table, and even a kitchenette.

Windows bring in natural light, and the layout feels open and self-sufficient.

In-Law Suite

The attached in-law suite is a true bedroom retreat, with a walk-in closet and direct access to a private bath. If you have extended family living with you, or are planning ahead, I think this wing offers comfort and privacy without compromise.

Bath 5

The in-law suite’s private bath features a large walk-in shower, modern fixtures, and plenty of space to move around. This bathroom is designed for accessibility and ease, making it comfortable for guests of any age.

Back downstairs, you’ll notice how each level and room connects so naturally. You can welcome friends on the porch, host big gatherings in the open kitchen, or let kids spread out upstairs—the flow just makes sense.

The design keeps daily life convenient while giving everyone their own space to unwind. Living here, you’ll always have room to grow, entertain, and make memories, no matter how your needs change over time.
