Ask any builder which feature buyers circle back to regret skipping, and the answer is almost always the wraparound porch. The Edmund Fold leans into that truth, with a porch wide enough for a full holiday table outside, a farmhouse layout that moves a crowd from kitchen to yard without a traffic jam, and an entry that absorbs the noise of a big family coming home all at once, coats dropped, dinner already smelling like something worth gathering for.
Specifications
- Sq. Ft.: 2,581
- Bedrooms: 3
- Bathrooms: 2.5
Floor Plan
Single-level layout with three bedrooms, great room, kitchen, dining, covered patios on two sides, plus garage and shop.
Floor Plan
Second floor holds a loft, a bedroom, a bathroom, unfinished storage rooms, and open views below.
Fun Fact: Those two unfinished rooms aren’t wasted space. Both carry 10-foot tray ceilings, so they’re already framed up to become proper bedrooms or a home office without touching a load-bearing wall — a genuinely smart move for a family that expects to outgrow its square footage.
Soaring Stone Fireplace Wall Sets the Tone for Every Gathering
Floor-to-ceiling stacked stone frames a linear gas fireplace with a raw wood mantel sitting just above the firebox. Exposed ceiling beams and an iron chandelier pull the eye upward in a room clearly built for volume. The oversized sectional earns its footprint here — this is not a space that would suffer a loveseat.

Dark Cabinets, White Stone, and Five Barstools That Mean Business
Charcoal flat-front cabinetry runs floor to ceiling on three walls, balanced by a white quartz island long enough to seat five. Drum pendants hang low over the island while articulating sconce arms flank the perimeter, and open shelving breaks up the upper cabinet run without cluttering it.
Style Math: Dark lower cabinets against a white stone countertop is one of the few high-contrast combinations that actually gets easier to live with over time. The island hides everyday smudges while the light surface shows you exactly where prep residue lands — useful in ways that sound unglamorous but matter on a Tuesday night. Wood-toned barstools keep the whole palette from reading cold.
Exposed Beam Vaulted Ceiling Turns an Open Floor Plan Into Something Worth Gathering Under
Weathered wood beams run the full pitch of the cathedral ceiling, grounding a space that could easily tip into feeling cavernous. Below them, the fluted pedestal dining table holds its own under geometric pendant lights that are doing a lot of quiet work. Live-edge barstools at the island add warmth against the dark cabinetry without pulling focus.
Designer’s Secret: Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams work best when the beam finish echoes existing wood tones elsewhere in the room rather than fighting them. Here, the ceiling beams pick up the dining chair legs and barstool seats, so the eye moves continuously around the space instead of snagging on any single element. That kind of tonal repetition does more visual work than most people realize.
Channeled Headboard and Warm Wood Floors Make a Case for Restrained Bedroom Design
Vertical channel tufting on the upholstered headboard draws the eye upward without competing with the geometric black-and-white art trio above it. Distressed wood floors keep the neutral palette grounded. The whole room is an argument for editing down.
In The Details: Draping a knit throw across the foot of the bed rather than folding it at the edge adds visual texture without requiring extra throw pillows. It’s a small shift, but a made bed looks less staged and more like someone actually sleeps there.
Warm Wood Vanity and Matte Black Fixtures Anchor a Bath Built for Two
A floating oak vanity with six drawers sits across from a freestanding soaking tub, both set against floor-to-ceiling marble tile in cool grey. Matte black fixtures tie the hardware together without making the room feel like a showroom.
Trend Alert: Wet rooms that combine an open shower and freestanding tub within a single tiled zone are gaining ground in primary bath design. Beyond the look, putting both in one enclosed space reduces the glass enclosure needed, which cuts the cleaning surface area considerably. If you’re planning a renovation, it’s a layout shift that pays off every single week.
Loft-Level Living Room Proves Vaulted Ceilings and Wood Railings Do Real Work
Viewed from the staircase landing, the seating arrangement reads clearly: white sectional, dark coffee table, two accent chairs facing in. The woven pouf adds texture without competing. Exposed ceiling beams share a finish with the railing cap, which pulls the upper half of the room into a single visual register instead of a collection of separate decisions.
- Matching wood tones between the railing cap and ceiling beams keeps the eye moving upward rather than stopping at the balustrade.
- A round chandelier above a rectangular seating group relieves visual tension without requiring any furniture repositioning.
- Placing accent chairs across from the sectional rather than beside it gives the space a genuine conversation layout instead of a TV-facing row.
Open Shelving and Dark Cabinetry Make This Laundry Room Actually Worth Spending Time In
Shiplap runs floor to ceiling behind two floating wood shelves loaded with woven baskets and glass canisters. Dark cabinetry carries through to the washer and dryer fronts, keeping that wall from reading as an interruption, and a matte black faucet at the sink pulls the hardware together without making a fuss about it. Honestly, more laundry rooms should look this deliberate.
