When you first see this French Country home, the curb appeal is immediately striking. The sweeping roofline, balanced brick and stone, and elegant arched windows all come together to create a classic, welcoming feel.

But this home is more than just beautiful on the outside. Inside, you’ll find over 5,100 square feet of living space spread across two spacious floors, each area laid out for modern family life, entertaining, and comfort.

I’ll start at the entry so we can walk through the home together, one inviting space at a time.

Specifications:

  • 5,100 Heated S.F.
  • 4 Beds
  • 5.5 Baths
  • 2 Stories
  • 3 Cars

The Floor Plans:

Floor plan preview

The full floor plan is below.

This plan has 2 levels. Each one is further down this page.

Walk the rooms first. The layout makes a lot more sense once you have seen what each space actually does. Or jump straight to the plan.

Foyer

As you walk in, the foyer feels grand without being intimidating. High ceilings greet you, and the chunky dark wood columns add a warm, old-world touch.

Foyer/Entry

The stone tile underfoot is both practical and beautiful, especially on rainy days. There’s enough space to pause and put down your keys or welcome guests without feeling crowded.

I really like how the entry opens up, making it easy to head in any direction and start exploring.

Office/Study

Just off the foyer to the left, you’ll find the office or study, measuring 14’4” by 16’10”.

Natural light pours in from the front, making this an inviting place for work or quiet reading.

The room is large enough for a substantial desk and a couple of armchairs. I’ve noticed more people want a dedicated home office these days, and having one by the entry is both convenient and private.

If you meet clients at home, they won’t have to walk through your entire house.

Dining Room

On the other side of the foyer, you’ll see the formal dining room. It features 8×16 timber beams on the ceiling and is anchored by 8×8 timber posts.

The natural wood warms up the space and gives it character, so even weeknight dinners feel special.

There’s room for a big table, which means holiday gatherings or dinner parties won’t feel cramped.

I prefer a dining room that connects to the rest of the house but still feels distinct, and this layout really nails that.

Butler’s Pantry and Office

Heading forward, the butler’s pantry sits between the dining room and kitchen. This is a practical feature I always appreciate.

There’s plenty of space for prepping food or storing dishware out of sight. Just beyond is a smaller room labeled “Office” near a covered passage.

This spot is perfect for handling household paperwork, helping with homework, or even crafts. I find it so helpful to have a second, more private workspace that’s not the main study.

Grand Hall

If you continue straight from the entry, you’ll come to the grand hall. Timber posts line the way and naturally draw your eyes forward.

This central hallway connects the front of the house to the main living spaces. It’s wide enough to avoid the bottleneck feeling you sometimes get in larger homes, and there’s a nice sense of flow as you move between rooms.

Great Room

Keep going and you’ll step into the great room. The two-story ceilings and dramatic arched windows create a true sense of volume and openness.

Great Room/Living Room
Architectural Designs – Plan 60538ND

Light pours in from above, and the floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace is a real focal point.

I think this layout works well for families who love spending time together, but it’s also impressive for entertaining.

The open view to the kitchen and outdoor spaces helps everything feel connected but still gives each area its own identity.

Kitchen

To the right, the kitchen truly stands out. This space is 22’ by 24’ and centers around a huge island.

If you like to cook or entertain, this is the kind of kitchen that keeps everyone in the action.

There’s a walk-in pantry, so storage is easy, and the kitchen’s placement lets you keep an eye on both the great room and the nook.

I really like the arched ceiling detail above the kitchen, which brings in a subtle French touch.

Nook

Next to the kitchen, the nook measures 11’ by 10’6” and is surrounded by windows.

It’s a perfect casual spot for breakfast, after-school snacks, or a morning cup of coffee.

The natural light and easy access to the kitchen make it ideal for daily living.

Kid’s Nook

Close to the kitchen and back hallway, the “Kid’s Nook” is a smart addition. It’s a small, defined corner just for backpacks, shoes, or quick art projects.

In my experience, having a spot like this helps keep clutter out of the main living spaces and gives kids their own place to organize daily essentials.

Laundry and Back Hall

Beyond the kitchen, you’ll find a combined laundry area and back hallway. There’s room for storage cabinets and folding, plus direct access to the garage.

This setup means muddy shoes and groceries have a landing zone before you step into the main house.

I appreciate how it keeps mess and noise out of sight.

Powder Room

A powder room sits next to the main hallway, making it easy for guests or anyone coming in from the garage. It’s just far enough from the kitchen and great room to feel private.

Master Suite

On the left side of the main floor is the master suite. The bedroom is spacious at nearly 20’ by 25’, and includes a private sitting area—perfect for morning coffee or winding down with a book.

Large windows brighten the space, and there’s direct access to the covered porch so you can step outside with ease.

The master bath has a glass shower, separate tub, dual sinks, and a walk-in closet.

I think this truly feels like a retreat, set apart for maximum privacy.

Sitting Area (Master Suite)

Within the master suite, the sitting area offers a cozy escape. It’s just right for a pair of armchairs or a chaise.

The Main Level Floor Plan

This plan continues below. Jump to the Second Level Floor Plan ↓

At the back of the house, a 12-foot-deep covered porch runs almost the full width.

Decorative columns and the sweeping roofline give it that classic French vibe, but it’s all about comfort.

There’s plenty of room for dining, relaxing, or even a swing. An optional outdoor kitchen means you can host cookouts or casual gatherings easily, and the porch connects directly to the main living spaces.

Looking out onto the yard, you can really imagine relaxing here.

Porte Cochere

To the side, a covered porte cochere links the main house to the garage. This feature keeps you dry when moving between your car and the house.

It’s practical, but also adds an elegant touch and makes tasks like unloading groceries much easier.

3-Car Garage

The garage is more than just parking. With dimensions of 23’ by 35’ and three bays, there’s plenty of space for storage or even a workshop.

I like how it’s set apart from the main living areas, which helps keep noise and clutter away from the heart of the home.

Staircase to Second Level

A set of stairs near the great room takes you up to the second story. Upstairs, you’ll find a whole new collection of living spaces and private rooms.

Upper Landing

At the top of the stairs, the upper landing overlooks the great room below. The open rail gives you a dramatic view and lets sunlight fill both levels.

I can picture stopping here in the mornings to check in on the kids or chat with someone downstairs.

Bedroom #2

To the right of the landing, Bedroom 2 includes a built-in desk and window seat.

It’s a great space for young students or guests who need a work area. The attached bath has all the comforts and privacy you’d want.

Bedroom #3

Directly across, Bedroom 3 mirrors the layout with its own built-in desk and window seat.

Another private attached bath means no fighting over the bathroom in the mornings. These details make each room feel like its own mini suite.

Bedroom #4

Down the hall to the left, Bedroom 4 is larger and offers a desk and double window seats.

The full bath is directly connected, and there’s space for sleepovers, toys, and quiet studying.

For growing families, these upstairs bedrooms really stand out.

Bath 3 and Bath 4

Bath 3 serves Bedrooms 2 and 3, while Bath 4 is attached to Bedroom 4.

Each one has a tub and all the essentials. I think this setup makes mornings easier since no one has to wait.

The Second Level Floor Plan

Laundry Chute

Just outside the bedroom hall, there’s a laundry chute. I love features like this because dirty clothes go straight down to the main laundry area.

It’s a simple detail, but it keeps bedrooms tidy and chores easier.

Optional Home Theater

Farther down the hall, there’s space labeled “Optional Home Theater” at almost 20’ by 24’.

It’s large enough for real theater seating, a projector, or a gaming setup. If movie nights are important to you, this space is a fantastic bonus.

Attic Storage

Next to the theater area, you’ll find easy-to-access attic storage. This is great for holiday decorations or suitcases, and you don’t have to climb a ladder or dig through hard-to-reach corners.

Optional Bonus Room

At the far end of the upper floor, the optional bonus room stretches out. It could be a playroom, fitness studio, or guest suite.

The size gives you plenty of options, and its location helps keep noise away from the rest of the house.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 60538ND

Storage Areas

Alongside the bonus spaces, there’s dedicated storage labeled “Strg. ” I like seeing this called out in the plan.

When life gets busy, having spots for overflow helps keep the main living areas organized and peaceful.

As you make your way back through the upper hall, looking down into the great room or out to the yard, it’s easy to picture the possibilities this home offers.

Every level and corner is designed for both time together and quiet escapes. In my opinion, it’s rare to find a home with this much style and substance that also feels so practical.
