Anyone who spent twenty years in apartments and starter homes with one cramped garage bay knows the specific frustration of parking a truck in the driveway all winter because there was nowhere else to put it. The Hayfield is built around finally having enough room — six-car tandem garage, a traditional farmhouse exterior that reads like you meant it, wide-open living spaces for the weekends you have been putting off hosting, and a two-story layout that gives everyone somewhere to land.

Floor Plan – Main Floor
The main floor centers on a large family room that connects to the dining room and kitchen without walls getting in the way. The owner’s suite sits privately off a hall, with its own bath and a generous walk-in closet. Two covered porches frame opposite sides of the plan, a stair leads up, and two separate two-car garages flank the entry side.
Floor Plan – Second Floor
The upper level holds two bedrooms, a loft, a bonus room, three bathrooms, a reading nook, and stair access with open-to-below views into the main living space below.
Dark Doors, Deep Green, and a Bench That Means Business
Painted board-and-batten in deep forest green anchors the entry wall and makes the white trim on those double doors pop harder than it would against a neutral backdrop. A floating wood bench keeps things functional without crowding the floor. Snake plant, round mirror, recessed lighting — nothing fights for attention, and that restraint is exactly why it works.
Color Story: Forest green on vertical board-and-batten reads richer than a flat painted wall because the grooves catch shadow and create depth. Pairing it with warm wood tones in the bench keeps the palette from going cold, and that dark door stain ties both elements together without dragging in a third color family.
Wall Sconces, a Piano, and a Room That Knows What It’s For
Framed landscape art flanked by black sconce fixtures anchors one side of the room. On the opposite wall, a wood upright piano holds a folded flag and open sheet music. Two distinct purposes, one shared space, and somehow neither one crowds the other out.
Did You Know: Upright pianos work well in living rooms because their flat backs sit flush against a wall, taking up less floor space than a grand. If you’re placing one on a rug, make sure the rug is thick enough to reduce sound reflection off hard floors — not just for looks, but because it actually affects how the instrument sounds in the room.
Soaring Ceilings, Built-Ins, and a Fireplace Wall Worth Centering Your Life Around
Double-height ceilings make the black ceiling fan look almost small by comparison. Flanking the linear fireplace, wood built-ins with arched niches give the wall structure without tipping into formal territory. Woven baskets on the lower shelves handle storage quietly, and the Persian-style rug does the job of anchoring furniture that’s otherwise kept light and neutral throughout.
Style Math: Arched niches inside a rectangular bookcase unit soften what could easily read as a corporate wall of shelving. Building custom units with a mix of arch-top and flat-top cubbies gives the eye somewhere to move and rest. Small decision, genuinely different result.
Warm Wood Cabinets, a Waterfall Island, and Seating for the Whole Crew
Beadboard-style cabinet fronts run floor to ceiling across the entire back wall, with black hardware and pendant lights keeping the palette consistent. Bar stools line the island, which is genuinely large enough to seat five without anyone feeling squeezed. This is the kind of kitchen that actually changes how you use a weekend.
Fun Fact: Quartz countertops with soft veining have largely replaced marble in high-use kitchens because they don’t require sealing and resist staining far better. On an island that sees heavy daily use, a honed finish hides fine scratches more forgivingly than a polished surface — a practical call most homeowners don’t think about until after installation.
Rattan Chairs, a Linear Pendant, and Windows That Do the Heavy Lifting
Cane-back dining chairs bring texture without adding visual weight to a room that’s already doing a lot with light. Four wide windows flood the space. That rectangular black pendant keeps the eye anchored low over the wood table rather than drifting toward the ceiling — which, in a room this bright, is the right call.
Why a Linear Pendant Works Better Here Than a Round One
Round pendants and chandeliers suit square tables. This table runs long, so a rectangular fixture follows that geometry rather than fighting it. Centered over the length, every seat gets roughly equal light. A useful rule of thumb: size a linear pendant to roughly two-thirds the table’s length so it reads as intentional rather than overpowering.
Four-Post Frame, Woven Baskets, and a Closet That Earns Its Own Wall
Walnut-toned posts on the canopy bed pull the eye up without competing with the grid-panel wall beside it. Rattan baskets clustered asymmetrically add the kind of texture paint alone can’t deliver. Best detail in the room: the walk-in closet opening sits flush with the paneling, so it reads as part of the wall rather than a gap punched through it.
The Psychology Behind This: Canopy beds work because the vertical frame defines personal space within a larger room, giving the sleeping area a sense of enclosure without actual walls. That feeling of contained space is something people find genuinely calming, which is probably why four-poster beds have survived centuries of shifting taste.
Hex Tile, Matte Black Fixtures, and a Double Vanity That Pulls Its Weight
Matte black hardware in a white bathroom isn’t a trend anymore — it’s a decision that ages better than chrome.
The walk-in shower pairs hexagonal tile with a sliding handheld fixture on a floor-to-ceiling bar, giving the whole wall a strong vertical pull. At the vanity, undermount sinks sit deep in a quartz countertop with soft veining, and the wood cabinetry underneath saves the room from reading too cold and clinical. Frameless black glass on the shower door echoes every fixture without feeling like it was trying to.
Pin It

The main floor plan below reveals an open kitchen, dining room, and family room anchored by an owner’s suite with walk-in closet, two covered porches, laundry, pantry, and stair access up to the second level.
