The Floor Plans:
Veranda
Your first look reveals a generous veranda stretching across the front. This covered space feels perfect for lingering, whether you’re sipping coffee or just catching up with neighbors.
Stone columns and simple railings add sturdy charm. With so much room, you could line up rocking chairs or tuck in a porch swing near the front door.
The veranda wraps toward the porte cochere, giving you a protected path if you’re coming in from the garage or parking.
Porte Cochere
On the left side, the wide porte cochere brings together function and aesthetics. This feature gives you covered access from your car to the front door, so rainy-day groceries and muddy boots are no problem.
Plus, it enhances the home’s classic, welcoming profile. Guests and delivery drivers alike get a memorable first impression here.
Entry and Family Room
As you enter, the family room opens up with a vaulted ceiling and an airy atmosphere.
This isn’t just a pass-through space; it’s where real living happens. Natural light pours in from windows facing the veranda, and there’s plenty of space for a big, comfy sectional or a pair of deep armchairs around a fireplace.
I think the way this room anchors the house really makes everyday life feel inviting and relaxed.
You’ll also see how the floor plan is set up for both easy flow and privacy. The family room connects openly to the dining area and kitchen, yet still feels distinct thanks to its proportions and the subtle boundary created by the entry.
Dining Room
Moving toward the back, the dining area sits just to the left, nestled between the kitchen and front windows.
An 11-foot ceiling gives an airy quality to family meals or gatherings. I can picture holiday dinners here, sunlight streaming in, with enough space to expand the table when needed.
This isn’t a closed-off formal dining room—it’s open, accessible, and perfect for daily use.
Kitchen
Turning right from the family area, you’ll find the kitchen. This space is a cook’s dream, with a wide island, a 4-foot aisle, deep counters, and an efficient work triangle between the sink, fridge, and range.
The island is sure to become a favorite spot for snacks, homework, or late-night chats.
Tall ceilings and clear sight lines to the dining area and porch keep everything bright and social.
I love how there’s plenty of room to move, but not so much that it feels too open or exposed.
A walk-in pantry sits neatly in the corner, offering five by six feet of storage.
Cereal boxes, baking supplies, and that extra coffee maker all have their place. You’ll be glad you don’t have to keep everything on the counters.
Porch
Beyond the kitchen and dining areas, the back porch opens up, mirroring the welcome you feel out front.
This is a true extension of your living space—a covered, shaded spot that could easily hold a grill station, outdoor dining set, and a few loungers.
Stone and wood columns keep the style going, and there’s room to relax after a swim or host friends for a breezy afternoon meal.
If you love outdoor living, this is where you’ll want to spend your best weekends.
Primary Suite
A short hall off the main living area leads to the master suite. Quietly set in the back right corner, this retreat gives you separation from the rest of the house.
The tray ceiling rises up to 12 feet, making the room feel even larger and more peaceful.
There’s space for a king-sized bed, reading chairs, and maybe a writing desk near the window.
I think the privacy here is a real win, especially if you like winding down with a book or want a restful space at the end of the day.
Master Bath
Through double doors, the master bath offers a true spa-like experience. You’ll find a double vanity, a 4 by 4 foot shower, a soaking tub, and a separate toilet area.
Natural light from a window over the tub keeps the room cheerful, and the layout means you won’t bump into each other during busy mornings.
Every detail feels designed so you can spread out, get ready, and actually enjoy your routine.
Walk-In Closet
Just off the master bath, the walk-in closet stands out. At 6 by 8 feet with 11-foot ceilings, there’s lots of room for hanging storage and shelving.
You could organize seasonal clothes, shoes, or even create a boutique-style dressing area if you like.
Good closet space always comes in handy, and I doubt you’ll ever wish for more room here.
Bedroom Two
As you head down the hall toward the front of the house, you’ll find the second bedroom.
This room works well for kids, guests, or as a home office. A generous closet and nearby access to the hall bath make it comfortable for almost any use.
The windows look out over the front yard and veranda, so you get great natural light during the day.
Bedroom Three
Bedroom three sits just next door, a bit smaller but still with its own closet and plenty of wall space for beds or shelving.
This room could work as a nursery, a hobby room, or a study nook. I appreciate that the two front bedrooms are close enough for younger kids, but separated enough that older kids or guests have their own space.
Hall Bath
Serving both front bedrooms is a full bathroom with a combination tub/shower, single vanity, and a window for ventilation.
It’s compact but functional, laid out so two people can easily get ready at once.
Since it’s in the hallway, it doubles as a powder room for guests and helps keep the main living areas neat.
Utility Room
Moving back toward the center, the utility room sits just off the main hall, close to the bedrooms and kitchen.
There’s space for a full washer and dryer, built-in cabinetry for cleaning supplies, and a folding counter.
Access to the basement is tucked in here too, which keeps laundry and storage tasks out of the way.
You’ll find it convenient to drop muddy boots or pet gear straight into the wash.
Pantry
Right off the kitchen, the walk-in pantry is easy to reach. It’s big enough to hold weeks’ worth of groceries, small appliances, or even bulk purchases—great if you prefer fewer trips to the store.
With deep shelves and good lighting, you’ll always know what you have on hand.
Bonus Room
Climb the stairs to the upper level and you’ll find a bonus room stretching over 33 feet long.
Nine-foot ceilings and an open layout give you endless options. This could be a game room, home theater, studio, or even a fourth bedroom.
I think families with teens, hobbyists, or anyone working from home will find plenty of uses here.
Since it’s above the main floor but still feels part of the house, you get a sense of retreat while staying connected to the living spaces below.
Alcove
Off the bonus room, there’s an alcove measuring nearly 11 by 13 feet. It’s ideal as a study zone, reading nook, or quiet sitting area away from the main flow.
The location gives you some privacy, but natural light still filters in from the main level.
I can imagine this as the perfect spot for a play area, homework station, or even a mini-library.
Family Room Overlook
From the bonus room, you can look down over the family room below. This unique architectural feature keeps the upstairs space connected to the main living area.
It’s great if you want to listen in during movie nights or holiday celebrations. If you like a sense of openness or want to keep an eye on kids, the overlook is a really useful detail.
Porch (Rear)
On the main level, the back porch runs across the width of the house, echoing the front veranda but with a view of your backyard.
It’s covered, making outdoor dining or relaxing possible no matter the weather. From here, you can see the pool and landscaping.
You might find yourself spending summer afternoons here, with barbecue in the air and fresh-cut grass all around.
Detached Garage
Just beyond the porte cochere, the detached garage stands out with its cottage-style design. The 22 by 22 foot space easily fits 2 cars, but it’s more than just parking.
There’s room to store bikes, tools, or even set up a workbench along the side.
Dormer windows bring in natural light, making it a pleasant place to work on weekend projects or set up a home gym.
With matching siding and trim, the garage blends right into the property’s country charm.
Every space in this home feels intentional, from the broad porches to the clever storage solutions and flexible bonus rooms.
If you’re looking for open places to gather, quiet nooks to retreat, or a relaxed, cottage-inspired lifestyle, this home brings it all together.
The multi-level layout gives you room to grow, adapt, and truly make the place your own.
