The main floor opens from a front porch into a foyer flanked by an office. Kitchen, dining, and family room flow together at the rear. A 2-car garage and mech/storage sit off the kitchen, with stairs to the upper level.
Floor Plan
Four bedrooms spread across what reads as a single level, anchored by a primary suite with its own bath and walk-in closet. A central hallway connects three secondary bedrooms to a shared bath. Laundry sits tucked near the WIC. Out front, a covered porch adds usable outdoor space just off the entry.
White Horizontal Siding and Generous Windows Define This Farmhouse Rear Elevation
Crisp white lap siding wraps both floors, with a large multi-pane window grouping anchoring the back. Steps lead directly onto a concrete pad from French doors.
Floating Shelves and a Leather Chair Make This Home Office Work Hard
Dark wood desk anchors the room without crowding it. Yellow woven orbs add a pop of warmth against the greige walls. Floating shelves carry books, a globe, and a model shark. Wide windows pull in a green field view that keeps the space from feeling enclosed.
Why the shelf styling works here:
1. Objects vary in height and texture, so the shelves don’t look like a store display
2. The shark and globe add personality without matching too precisely
3. Negative space between groupings lets each piece read clearly
Stone-to-Ceiling Fireplace Anchors a Living Room Built for Wide-Open Views
Natural stone climbs full-height beside a lit gas fireplace, while picture windows frame green fields beyond.
Did You Know: Stone veneer fireplaces have surged in popularity in new construction because they deliver the visual weight of a masonry fireplace without requiring a full masonry foundation. Gas inserts like the one shown here can produce heat output comparable to a wood-burning fire while venting more cleanly. Pairing one with floor-to-ceiling stone is a common way to make a fireplace feel like the genuine architectural centerpiece of a room.
Candle-Style Chandelier and Dark Wood Table Ground an Open-Plan Dining Space
Wrought-iron candelabra chandelier anchors the dining area, while a herringbone tile backsplash and gray kitchen island connect the two zones visually.
Designer’s Secret: Open-plan kitchens gain visual separation without walls when you use contrasting island colors. Painting an island a few shades darker than the perimeter cabinets, as done here with gray against white, creates a furniture-like focal point that defines the cooking zone without closing it off. It’s a low-cost decision at the cabinet-painting stage that reads as intentional design from across the room.
Marble-Top Island and Lantern Pendants Pull Double Duty in This Farmhouse Kitchen
Slipcovered barstools tuck under a gray island topped with veined quartz. Stainless appliances and a herringbone tile backsplash keep the palette grounded.
Why It Works: Quartz countertops mimic the look of marble without the maintenance demands that natural stone requires. Sealed marble can stain from everyday acids like lemon juice and wine, while quartz holds up without annual sealing. For a busy kitchen island used as both prep space and casual seating, that’s a practical advantage worth considering.
Moving into the sleeping quarters, the primary bedroom shows how the rest of the home’s palette carries through.
Recessed Lighting and a Low-Profile Bed Give This Primary Bedroom Room to Breathe
Gray carpet softens the contrast between dark furniture and warm taupe walls. Two table lamps do most of the heavy lighting work here. The low-profile platform bed keeps sightlines open to the wide picture window beyond.
Marble Counters and Sconce Lighting Make This Master Bath Feel Polished
Veined quartz countertops run the full length of a double vanity with white shaker cabinets below. Candle-style wall sconces cast warm light while a glass-enclosed tub-shower combo anchors the far wall.
Fun Fact: Frameless glass shower enclosures became the go-to choice in master bath renovations because they keep sightlines open and make smaller bathrooms read as larger. Cleaning them does take more effort since every water spot shows, but a squeegee hung inside the door makes it manageable. Builders often spec them alongside soaking tubs to give the space a spa-like continuity without adding square footage.
Pin It
White board-and-batten farmhouse exterior pairs with a first-floor plan showing an open kitchen, dining, and family room layout, plus a front porch, office, two-car garage, and staircase accessing upper levels.
In The Details: Front porches have made a strong comeback in new construction because buyers want outdoor space that connects directly to street life rather than backing into a private yard. A porch sized at 8 by 17 feet gives you room for rocking chairs and a small table without feeling like a decorative afterthought.
