Walking up to this home, you’re greeted by the kind of Southern character that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile.
The wide porch, tall columns, and a soft blue front door hint at both hospitality and style.
Inside, the floor plan offers a great mix of open living and private corners, spread across two carefully planned levels.
There’s a real sense of balance here. You’ll find plenty of room for gathering, along with just as many spots to enjoy some quiet time, whether you’re hosting friends or winding down after a long week.

The Floor Plans:
Porch
The front porch stands out right away. It’s deep and wide, running nearly the full width of the house, with space for rockers and a swing.
Those white columns set a stately tone, while the blue door adds a friendly pop of color.
You can picture yourself here, sipping iced tea, waving to neighbors, or relaxing in the shade.
This truly is an outdoor living space that feels like part of the home.
Foyer
Step through the front door and you’ll notice the foyer has a tall ceiling that makes everything feel open from the start.
There’s room for a bench or console table, perfect for stashing keys or setting down bags.
As you look ahead, your eye is drawn to the main living areas, but you’ll also see how the home splits into both work and relaxation zones.
This welcoming space gives you an immediate sense of organization as you settle in.
Office / Study
Just off the foyer, the office or study gives you a private escape. It’s roomy enough for a full desk, bookshelves, and a couple of chairs.
Tall windows bring in plenty of natural light, making it comfortable for working from home or finishing homework.
If you need a dedicated workspace, this room delivers, while still keeping you connected to the rest of the house.
I think its location near the entry, yet set apart, makes it easy to switch gears throughout the day.
Dining Room
The formal dining room sits just to the left as you enter, marked by a coffered ceiling that adds a sense of occasion.
There’s space for a long table to host a crowd, plus plenty of wall area for a hutch or artwork.
Even though it’s a separate room, it opens to the foyer and connects smoothly to the kitchen through a butler’s pantry.
It works for both celebrations and weeknight dinners.
Butler’s Pantry
Moving from the dining room, you’ll find the butler’s pantry. This is one of those luxuries that often goes unnoticed—a transition space that’s perfect for staging meals, storing extra dishes, or keeping small appliances out of sight.
There’s plenty of countertop space and cabinetry to keep entertaining simple.
Kitchen
The kitchen serves as a central gathering spot, set up for both serious cooking and relaxed hangouts.
An oversized island anchors the room, offering lots of prep space and seating for a few stools.
Cabinetry lines the walls, and the layout is both efficient and welcoming. The kitchen connects directly to the breakfast area and has a great view into the living room, so you never feel cut off from the action.
I love how the flow here makes life easier for busy families or anyone who enjoys hosting.
Breakfast Area
Next to the kitchen, the breakfast area feels sunny and relaxed. There’s room for a good-sized table, and windows wrap around the space, bringing in morning light.
This is where you’ll want to linger over coffee or help kids with homework while dinner simmers nearby.
Its open connection to the kitchen keeps conversation easy, and the view outside invites you to slow down.
Built-In Pantry
Just off the kitchen, the built-in pantry is larger than you might expect. Shelving lines the walls, delivering generous storage for everything from bulk groceries to kitchen gadgets.
If you like to keep things neat and organized, this walk-in pantry is a real plus.
Living Room
As you move further in, you reach the main living room. This area feels both grand and comfortable, thanks to a vaulted ceiling that really opens up the space.
Large windows frame the view out to the screened porch, and the open plan lets you see straight to the kitchen and breakfast nook.
The fireplace is a cozy focal point for gatherings. There’s enough space here for a big sectional and extra chairs, so you can easily adapt it for movie nights or holiday parties.
Screened Porch
Off the living room, double doors lead to a spacious screened porch. This is truly an outdoor room, protected from bugs and weather but open to fresh air.
With its generous size, you can easily fit both a dining set and a lounge area.
The porch opens onto the backyard patio, making it perfect for quiet mornings or summer barbecues.
The screen keeps things comfortable without blocking the view. An outdoor kitchen is set into one corner, so grilling or prepping snacks is always within reach.
Patio
Step through the screened porch and you’re on the patio, an open-air space that’s great for gatherings, fire pits, or a quiet evening with a book.
The patio is large enough for a dining table, planters, and a few lounge chairs.
You’ll notice the layout encourages you to spend time outdoors, making that easy, indoor-outdoor lifestyle a reality.
Outdoor Kitchen
In the corner of the screened porch, the outdoor kitchen adds practical convenience. There’s space for a grill and a prep counter, making cookouts and casual entertaining simple.
I like how this setup lets you keep the party outside without always running back indoors.
Master Bedroom
Back inside, the master suite sits in its own private wing. Set apart for privacy, this room is especially spacious, with a tray ceiling that adds some flair.
There’s room for a king bed, a sitting area, and extra furniture. Windows look out to the side yard, bringing in plenty of sunlight.
I appreciate that this suite feels secluded but still connected to the rest of the house.
Master Bath
Attached to the master bedroom, the master bath offers a sense of luxury. There’s a deep soaking tub, a walk-in shower, dual vanities, and plenty of drawer space.
Two walk-in closets provide more than enough room—one is especially large—so you’ll never have to worry about storage.
The layout gives you both privacy and convenience, making daily routines a little more enjoyable.
Walk-In Closets (Master Suite)
Two walk-in closets are located on either side of the master bath. One closet is particularly spacious, with ample room for clothing, shoes, and accessories.
This arrangement helps keep mornings less stressful because everything is in its place.
Utility Room
The utility room is placed near the master suite and garage. It’s more than just a laundry spot.
There’s space for folding, sorting, and even stashing cleaning supplies. A window makes the room feel brighter, and there’s enough space to handle big loads or messy projects.
Locker
Between the garage and the hallway, a small locker area serves as a drop zone for backpacks, coats, and shoes. This practical feature helps keep the rest of the house clutter-free and organized, especially during busy mornings.
Powder Bath
Close to the main living areas, the powder bath is ideal for guests. Its location near the screened porch and kitchen means no one has to go far when needed.
Storage Room
Next to the garages, you’ll find a dedicated storage room—not just a shelf or closet, but a real separate space. This is perfect for bikes, holiday decorations, or household items that don’t need to be front and center.
Two-Car Garage
The attached two-car garage is oversized, providing ample space for vehicles and extra gear. High ceilings make it possible to add hanging storage or fit larger SUVs with ease.
I think this setup is everyday convenience at its best.
One-Car Garage
Next to the main garage, the single-car garage works well for a classic car, a workshop, or just more storage. Having two garages adds flexibility for families with multiple drivers or hobbies that need their own space.
Bedroom 2
On the opposite side of the house, Bedroom 2 sits in a private corner. It’s spacious enough for a queen bed, has its own walk-in closet, and a built-in desk nook just outside in the hallway.
The attached bath gives it a suite feel, which is great for guests or older kids who want a bit of independence.
Desk Nook
Right outside Bedroom 2, a built-in desk offers a place for homework or hobbies. It’s tucked into the hallway, making good use of space that might otherwise go unused.
Bath (Bedroom 2)
The private bath for Bedroom 2 includes a vanity, tub, and shower. It offers just the right amount of comfort and privacy, making it perfect for a guest retreat or teen suite.
Bedroom 3
Bedroom 3 is further along the same hallway. This room features its own walk-in closet, a big window, and quick access to a full bath.
I think having these bedrooms separated helps everyone feel like they have their own space in the house.
Bath (Bedroom 3 and 4)
A shared bath between Bedrooms 3 and 4 offers double sinks and a tub/shower combination. The layout keeps things organized during busy mornings, and both rooms have easy access.
Bedroom 4
The fourth bedroom is similar in size and setup to Bedroom 3, with a walk-in closet and direct access to the shared bath. It’s flexible for guests, kids, or even as a second office or hobby room.
Walk-In Closets (Bedrooms 2, 3, 4)
All secondary bedrooms come with their own walk-in closets. This focus on storage means everyone enjoys personal space and easy organization.
Connecting Hallways
Throughout the main level, wide hallways connect living spaces and bedrooms. These aren’t just pass-throughs—they give you extra breathing room and spots to display family photos or create cozy reading nooks.
Stairs to Upper Level
A staircase near the kitchen leads you upstairs, making it easy to move between floors. Its location keeps it out of the main living areas, so the flow of the house isn’t interrupted.
Bonus Room (Upper Level)
At the top of the stairs, you’ll find a large bonus room. This flexible space can be a home gym, media room, hobby studio, or even a fifth bedroom.
With a walk-in closet nearby, the room adapts as your needs change. I think these bonus areas make a home truly livable for growing families.
Play Room (Upper Level)
Next to the bonus room, the play room gives you a dedicated area for toys, games, or teen hangouts. The size makes it easy to keep the main living areas tidy, while still giving everyone a place to spread out and get creative.
Bath (Upper Level)
A full bath upstairs keeps the bonus and play rooms practical for long visits or sleepovers. There’s no need to head downstairs in the middle of the night—everything you need is right here.
Walk-In Closet (Upper Level)
The upstairs walk-in closet adds even more storage. You can use it for off-season clothes, board games, or sporting equipment, so there’s always a place to keep things organized.
You’ve now seen every corner, nook, and closet of this home. The layout makes it easy to gather with others or enjoy a quiet retreat, blending Southern tradition with details that make everyday life smoother.
The two levels flow together, giving you space to connect with family and friends and places to recharge, no matter the season or stage of life.
