Couples are increasingly designing their lives around outdoor living first and square footage second, and the floor plans actually catching up to that shift are built differently. The Fairfield Banks leans hard into it — covered terrace for unhurried Saturday mornings, an open layout that pulls evening light deep into the kitchen, and a bedroom wing quiet enough to let the weekend last as long as you want it to.

- Bathrooms: 2
Floor Plan – Main Floor
Three bedrooms, two baths, an open kitchen and living room, with a covered terrace running the full front.
Stone Fireplace Tower and Exposed Beams Set the Tone for This Lake-View Interior
Floor-to-ceiling stone anchors the living area, and the woven pendant overhead pulls your eye straight toward the kitchen island beyond. It’s a good visual trick in a compact plan.
Woven Pendants and Walnut Cabinetry Make This Kitchen Feel Like a Resort
Two oversized rattan pendants anchor the island, and the walnut lower cabinets paired with cream uppers give the space a warmth that white-on-white kitchens rarely manage. Marble runs across both the island and the backsplash, keeping the material palette tight. That ceramic vase with olive branches on the counter is a small detail, but it earns its spot.
Woven Rattan and Reclaimed Wood Beams Give This Bedroom Its Quiet Warmth
Dark walnut runs from the ceiling planks down to the matching nightstands, pulling the room into a coherent whole without feeling overdone. Gray linen bedding sits soft against the earthy wall tone. The woven rattan chandelier overhead does more heavy lifting than it looks like it should.
- Exposed ceiling beams ground the rafter-style wood planking overhead
- Matching walnut nightstands anchor both sides of the upholstered headboard
- Symmetrical table lamps create even ambient light without relying on overhead fixtures alone
Pin It
The top half shows a rendered exterior of a modern cabin-style home with vertical siding, a stone chimney, and warm lighting at dusk. Below it, the floor plan reveals a single-story layout spanning 44 by 28 feet, with three bedrooms, a covered terrace, open kitchen and living room, and a stacked washer/dryer tucked into a central utility space.
In The Details: The covered terrace runs the full 26-foot width of the rear, which is an unusual move for a home this compact — and it’s the single detail that earns the vacation-home feeling the design is going for. Bedroom #1 also gets its own private bath, so the primary suite stays functional without anyone needing to add a second floor to pull it off.
