This modern farmhouse isn’t just about classic curb appeal; it’s designed for real life, with wide porches, rooms that flow into each other, and just the right amount of separation when you want it.
The layout feels both homey and grand, with two spacious levels and spaces made for gathering or finding a quiet corner.
If you’re hosting a crowd or recharging solo, every square foot matters here. I want to show you how this home uses its 3,636 square feet to give you something just a bit different at every turn.

The Floor Plans:
Foyer
When you enter through the blue front door, you’re welcomed by a foyer that sets the tone for the entire house.
There’s space for a bench or decorative table, maybe a place to drop your keys or pause for a moment before heading into the main living area.
Light streams in from the front porch, and you’ll probably notice how the lines of sight guide you directly to the main living spaces.
Still, the foyer stands as its own inviting entry, offering just enough separation from the rest of the main floor to make arrivals feel meaningful.
Living Room
Move forward and you’re in the living room, a wide-open space with generous proportions (it stretches almost 20 feet across).
Large windows along the back wall fill the room with natural light and offer a view of the covered porch beyond.
This room is perfect for arranging a mix of seating—sectional, chairs, whatever fits your style.
I love how the designer made it easy for everyone to stay connected; whether your family is in the dining room or friends are out on the porch, conversation flows easily.
The fireplace wall is ready for a dramatic piece of art or a TV, depending on your preference.
Dining Room
To the left of the living room, the dining room is just steps from both the foyer and the kitchen.
It’s defined but remains totally open, so you’re always part of what’s happening throughout the house.
The bay-like window nook at the end brings in extra morning sunlight—imagine weekend brunches with coffee and pancakes here.
The flow to the kitchen is practical, but the dining space still feels cozy enough for a candlelit dinner.
I think this kind of flexibility is exactly what makes a dining room work for modern families.
Kitchen
The kitchen sits right off the dining area and is designed for both busy weekday mornings and those times when everyone gathers to cook together.
You get a massive center island with seating for several people—perfect for homework, snacks, or just hanging out while dinner simmers.
There’s plenty of counter space flanking the range, and I noticed a walk-in pantry close by, near the mudroom.
That means less clutter and everything you need is within reach. If you enjoy hosting, the kitchen’s open sight lines make sure you’re always included in the action.
Pantry
Right next to the kitchen, the pantry offers a practical, easy-to-reach spot for all your dry goods, small appliances, or those bulk items that never seem to fit in standard cabinets.
It’s positioned conveniently next to the mudroom, so unloading groceries is simple and efficient. I think this is a feature you’ll value more as time goes on, especially if you like keeping your kitchen organized and your counters clear.
Mud Room
The mud room acts as a command center for everyday comings and goings. Located between the garage and the main part of the house, it’s designed for both storage and durability.
There’s built-in space for coats, boots, backpacks—anything you need to manage the bustle of daily life.
It’s one of those functional spaces that keeps everything else running smoothly, especially with wet shoes or sports gear in the mix.
4-Car Garage
The garage is impressive, offering four bays so you’re not limited to just parking cars.
There’s extra room here for bikes, lawn equipment, or even a workshop or storage shelves along the back.
Direct access to the mud room keeps things tidy, and the layout makes it easy to bring in groceries or sneak out for an early morning run without disturbing the rest of the house.
Utility / Mud Room
Connected to the garage and mud room, the utility room functions as both laundry and a secondary mud room.
The extra space gives you flexibility for folding, sorting, or even adding a pet-washing station.
Doors open directly onto a small porch, so muddy boots or paws never have to pass through the main living areas.
I like that the laundry is on the main floor and close to daily activities, which just makes life easier.
Storage / Safe Room
Beside the pantry, the storage or safe room is a great addition. Many homes overlook this kind of practical storage, but here you have room for valuables, emergency supplies, or just a place to clear out the garage for a project.
It may not be flashy, but having a dedicated secure space brings peace of mind and organization.
Lounge
Past the mud and utility areas, you’ll find the lounge. This flexible room can become a playroom, library, media space, or simply a quiet retreat away from the main flow of the house.
It’s set apart enough to make it perfect for reading, hobbies, or even a homework zone for kids.
If you need a den or a flexible office, this room easily adapts.
Master Suite
The master suite is located at the back of the house for privacy. The bedroom itself is spacious and shaped for a king-size bed, with extra room for a reading chair or dresser.
Large windows open onto the private master sunroom, letting you wake up with soft, natural light.
Its location keeps you away from the busy parts of the house, so it feels like a genuine retreat.
Master Sun Room
The sunroom behind the master suite is one of my favorite features. It’s just big enough for a pair of chairs and a small table, giving you a quiet spot to enjoy coffee or relax with a backyard view.
I think having this bonus oasis off the bedroom really upgrades the master suite. It brings in an indoor-outdoor vibe without ever leaving your space.
Master Bath, His, and Hers Closets
When you enter the master bath, you’ll find a spa-like setup with a soaking tub, a spacious shower, and separate vanities.
There’s plenty of natural light here. The design includes “his” and “hers” walk-in closets, so each person has dedicated storage space.
If you’ve struggled to share closet space before, this solves the problem. There’s also a private water closet for extra comfort.
The layout encourages calm and privacy.
Porch (Main and Rear)
Nothing says farmhouse like a wraparound porch, and this home absolutely delivers. From the front, the porch stretches wide and creates a shaded, breezy spot to watch the world go by or greet neighbors.
Out back, the covered porch expands into a large area perfect for outdoor dining, morning stretches, or even an old-fashioned swing.
Multiple doors connect the living areas to the porch, so you’re always a few steps from sunshine.
This brings true indoor-outdoor living to life.
Outdoor Kitchen
The outdoor kitchen is located on the rear porch, ready for grilling, prepping snacks, or simply relaxing with a drink.
The built-in setup lets you cook and serve right outside, making parties or quiet summer nights easy to enjoy.
It’s sized just right so it doesn’t overwhelm the porch and is perfectly positioned for easy access from both the living room and backyard.
Patio
Set just off the porch, the patio becomes your favorite spot for lounging in the sun, barbecues, or maybe a fire pit on cool evenings.
Surrounded by green space, it’s private enough for relaxing but still close to the main house for effortless entertaining.
There’s plenty of room for outdoor furniture, and large rear windows let you enjoy the views both inside and out.
Bedroom 2 and Sitting Area
On the opposite side of the main floor, Bedroom 2 offers a welcoming guest space or a perfect retreat for an older child.
There’s a bright sitting area that looks onto the yard—ideal for reading or homework in the afternoon light.
The room connects directly to a walk-in closet and a full bath, making it a great option for a guest suite or in-law quarters.
Walk-In Closet (Bedroom 2)
The walk-in closet attached to Bedroom 2 provides plenty of storage for clothes, toys, or seasonal gear. It’s one of those features that makes the room easily adaptable as kids grow or if you need to accommodate long-term guests.
Bath (Bedroom 2)
The private bath serving Bedroom 2 includes a full tub and double sinks. You don’t have to share with the main living space, so it really feels like a mini-suite.
The connection is direct, so there’s no hallway traffic to worry about.
Pool Bath
Just outside Bedroom 2, there’s a pool bath with its own porch access. This is perfect for backyard gatherings, keeping wet feet from traipsing through the house.
It’s a practical feature for anyone who loves outdoor living or plans to add a pool or spa.
Hall Bath
Across the hallway is another full bath, ideal for guests or anyone coming in from the patio.
Its location near Bedroom 2 and the outdoor spaces makes life easier and keeps things private.
It’s a small feature, but it really helps the house function well during parties or busy family days.
Stairs and Transition to Upper Level
When you head upstairs from the foyer, you move from the lively, open main floor to the more private rooms above. The open stairwell brings in plenty of light and keeps the flow feeling easy and connected.
Den (Upper Level)
At the landing, the den anchors the second floor. This is a great spot for a game room, teen lounge, or even a shared study space.
The elevated view over the main level and windows facing both front and back keep the space bright and open.
I think this flexible area makes the upstairs truly livable—it’s much more than just a hallway to the bedrooms.
Bedroom 3
Bedroom 3 sits on one side of the second floor, with its own window seat tucked into a cozy nook.
This is the perfect spot for sleepovers, building forts, or just an afternoon nap. There’s also a walk-in closet for storage, and the proportions are ideal for a bed, dresser, and even a desk.
Walk-In Closets (Bedrooms 3 and 4)
Both upstairs bedrooms feature walk-in closets, so storage is never a problem. If you need to store extra bedding, clothes, or holiday decorations, these closets make it easy to keep the bedrooms uncluttered.
Bedroom 4
Bedroom 4 mirrors Bedroom 3’s setup, complete with another window seat. It’s sized for comfort and privacy, making it great for siblings who want their own space but like to be nearby.
The built-in window seat is a nice extra—I can picture curling up here with a favorite book or just watching the birds outside.
Bath (Upper Level)
The upstairs bath serves both bedrooms and the den. With a tub, shower, and double sinks, morning routines are smoother even with more people.
It’s easy to access from both bedrooms, so there’s no need to wander far during the night or on busy mornings.
Now that you’ve seen each space, you can tell this home blends classic Southern charm with the flexibility families need today.
There’s a rhythm to the layout, with peaceful nooks for retreat and open areas for gathering.
I love how you can plan cozy nights in or sun-filled afternoons out back, knowing this home is ready to grow and adapt with you.
