Welcome to this Acadian-style home! Spanning over 1,889 square feet, this house includes 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, all conveniently located on a single floor. It also has a front-loading, two-car garage.
I Love the Country Influences in This Facade!
Since it’s Acadian-inspired, this single-story home features a simple yet elegant brick facade. Gabled roofs and shutters highlight the rustic aesthetic typical of Southern architecture.
The Entire Floor Plan
A great room, dining area, and kitchen flow together in an open-concept layout. Four bedrooms, including a large master suite, provide ample space for family or guests. I love that the master suite is far away from the other bedrooms.

Brick Exterior With a Wooden Sundeck Overlooking the Backyard
In the back, the brick contrasts with the wood deck. My only critique is that the exterior could benefit from some landscaping.
A Closer Look at the Covered Porch and the Sundeck
All this space needs is a couple of wicker chairs and some potted plants to bring life to the concrete-and-brick look. Note that the white door on the side leads to the great room. So, you don’t want to block the way with a chair.
Pentagon Tray Ceiling and Dark Flooring Add Depth to the Great Room
A tray ceiling draws the eye upward, making the space feel larger. The natural light definitely helps with this sense of spaciousness, too. Then, dark wood flooring grounds the room.
An Oversized Opening Connected the Great Room and the Kitchen
I like how the living area flows into the kitchen. You can already tell that the kitchen’s style blends in with the great room.
Crisp White Cabinetry Contrasts the Dark Flooring in the Kitchen
White cabinetry pops against the rich tones of the hardwood floors. Tying them together is a granite countertop and a set of warm pendant lights. Some folks will prefer a colorful backsplash. But I’d settle for small decorative elements to break up the expanse of white and inject some personality into the space.
Built-in Dishwasher and a Double-Bowl Sink With a Dark Faucet
Note that all the appliances are stainless steel, and all the hardware is black. I think these choices work well with the white cabinetry.
A Walk-in Pantry Awaits Behind That White Door
Here’s an angle that shows the continuity between spaces in this open floor plan. While the openness is appealing, I’d incorporate area rugs to define individual zones within the larger space.
Compact Utility Room in White and Soft Gray
A set of upper and lower cabinets maximizes the vertical storage potential. Plus, there’s a hanging rod for air-drying delicate items. To improve the space, consider adding a small sink for hand-washing delicates.
A Well-Lit Area Next to the Kitchen… Perfect for a Dining Table
If you look at the floor plan, you’ll see that the space between the kitchen and the large window is a dedicated dining area. I’d avoid bulky tables, though. I’d also consider adding colorful bar stools to the island to provide more seating options.
A Closer Look at the Dining Area and Its Light Source
A white-framed window overlooking the backyard lights up the dining area. The area is also partially hidden from the great room. Yet, the style is pretty cohesive, at least in terms of wall color, trims, and flooring.
A Bedroom With Carpet Flooring and a Tall Window
A dark ceiling fan with a light fixture adds flair to an otherwise neutral and pale room. Of course, you could always use colorful bedding and artwork to break up the monochromatic palette.
Different Bedroom, Same Ceiling Fan
Although this is a different bedroom, it looks a lot like the previous one. It’s got the same carpet flooring, gray walls, and ceiling fan.
Now, Let’s Check the Master Bedroom
Yes, the master bedroom shares the same interior as the secondary bedrooms. But it’s larger and gets more natural light. Oh, and that angled door on the right leads to a bathroom.
Spacious Primary Bathroom With a Corner Tub and a Glass-Enclosed Shower
In the corner, you have a triangular tub. Meanwhile, a glass-enclosed shower sits on the side. I appreciate how the granite countertops on the vanities tie the color scheme together.
More White Cabinets and Dark Hardware
White shiplap in the cabinetry creates textural interest against the gray walls. The bench under the cubbies provides convenient seating and storage. I also love the tile flooring. It’s durable enough for a high-traffic area.
