Families are leaving planned subdivisions for rural acreage in serious numbers, and they’re bringing every hobby, after-school mess, and weekend project with them. The Kellerman is built around that reality — open main living, a bonus room that absorbs whatever gets thrown at it, a layout that keeps noise where it belongs, and a barndominium shell that fits land instead of fighting it.
Specifications
- Sq. Ft.: 3,059
- Bedrooms: 3
- Bathrooms: 2.5
Floor Plan – Main Floor
The single-story layout pushes the primary suite and office toward the back, well away from the two secondary bedrooms. A saferoom, powder room, and laundry/mud room handle the practical end of daily life, while the open living, dining, and kitchen area anchors the front — all of it behind a covered porch that runs the full width of the house.
Floor Plan – Second Floor
The upper level splits into two distinct zones connected by a central loft with a vaulted ceiling. Stairs land between the open-below great room and a bonus game room with two closets — which is a sensible way to keep the playing separate from the living without banishing anyone to a finished basement.
Wraparound Covered Porch Anchored by Stone Columns and Wide Sliding Glass Doors
Stone wainscoting runs the full perimeter at base level, grounding the white board-and-batten siding above it. Thick square columns carry the roofline across the covered rear porch, which stretches wide enough to be genuinely useful rather than decorative. Large sliding glass doors dissolve the boundary between inside and out — on a good evening, you barely notice where one ends.
Vaulted Ceilings and a Mezzanine Make the Kitchen Feel Genuinely Grand
White shaker cabinets, a black wall-mount range hood, and bar stools pulled up to a gray-topped island anchor a kitchen that opens to countryside views through full-height glass doors.
By The Numbers: Barndominiums typically feature double-height ceilings in the main living area, and this kitchen puts that volume to work by pairing recessed lighting with pendant drops calibrated to the island height. The mezzanine railing overhead keeps the upper level visually connected to the kitchen without choking off airflow below. Most open-plan builds this size don’t manage both as cleanly.
Step inside and the living area makes the architectural ambitions of the barndominium format impossible to ignore.
Teak Frames and Vaulted Height Turn an Open Living Room Into Something Worth Staying In
The furniture does something unusual here. Chunky teak frames on the sofas and chairs read more like outdoor pieces brought inside, grounding the room without weighing it down. Recessed lights dot the cathedral ceiling, but afternoon sun through the side windows does most of the actual work — the electrical is almost beside the point by mid-afternoon.
Pendant Clusters and a Portrait Wall Turn This Bedroom Into Its Own Edit
Gray linen upholstery on the bed frame carries through to the ottoman at the foot, keeping the palette grounded without going flat. A branching spur chandelier earns its place against that high ceiling in a way a standard drum fixture never would. The framed fashion portrait leaning into the room’s point of view is either going to work for you or it isn’t — but it commits, and that counts for something.
That branching spur chandelier does real work against the high ceiling.
Pin It
The exterior rendering shows a modern farmhouse barndominium with a full-width covered porch, white stucco facade, and attached two-car garage. Pull back to the floor plan and you get 3 bedrooms, a primary suite with walk-in closet and private bath, a bonus office, saferoom, mudroom, and a rear patio spanning 85 feet 6 inches wide.
Try This: A mud room positioned between the garage and the main living area is one of those features that sounds minor until you actually have kids. Boots, bags, coats — contained before any of it reaches the kitchen floor. Stack the laundry right there too, as this plan does, and you’ve corralled most of the daily wreckage into a single corner before it spreads.
