Floor Plan
The walkout basement holds a theater, social room, gym, workshop, and optional storm shelter. Bedroom #3 sits in the upper-left corner with a walk-in closet and private bath. A pool bath connects to the patio slab above, while a kitchenette serves the lower-level living spaces.
Designer’s Secret: Positioning the optional storm shelter beneath the theater keeps it accessible without sacrificing square footage in finished living areas. The shelter’s 19-foot-6-inch by 9-foot-8-inch footprint offers enough space to double as a wine cellar or cold storage when severe weather isn’t a concern.
Backyard Pool and Covered Porch Anchor This White Farmhouse Design
Board-and-batten siding wraps the two-story exterior in white. Dark-framed windows contrast sharply against it. Exposed wood trusses frame the covered porch above a second-floor balcony. Below, a rectangular pool sits beside a swing set and patio seating.
Editor’s Note: White board-and-batten siding paired with black window frames is one of the most requested exterior combinations in modern farmhouse construction. The wood truss detail beneath the gabled dormer adds warmth that painted surfaces alone cannot provide. Landscaping with Italian cypress trees reinforces the vertical lines of the facade.
Vaulted Timber Beams and a Stone Fireplace Define This Cottage Great Room
Few ceilings command a room like exposed timber trusses arching twenty feet overhead.
Cognac leather seating anchors the sitting area beneath a cathedral ceiling laced with dark wood beams and decorative corbels. Gray stacked-stone rises floor to ceiling around the fireplace. Reclaimed wood flooring, a floral area rug, and tall windows opening to the open countryside give the space a grounded, unhurried character.
Stone Fireplace and Floor-to-Ceiling Windows Pull This Cottage Living Room in Two Directions
Gray stacked-stone fireplace anchors the left wall while black-framed windows frame open farmland beyond. Wood chairs, a neutral sofa, and herringbone floors complete the room.
Color Story: Warm beige upholstery and dark walnut wood tones create a palette that reads as grounded rather than stark. Layering a traditional patterned rug over herringbone flooring adds visual depth without introducing new colors. Snake plants in white pots repeat the green already visible through the windows, tying indoors and outdoors together.
Reclaimed Wood and Marble Meet in This Cottage-Style Kitchen
Rustic wood table, metal stools, marble backsplash, white shaker cabinets, and lantern pendants define this kitchen’s layered character.
Material Matters: Marble slab backsplashes installed full-height behind ranges and across entire walls cost more upfront but eliminate grout lines that trap grease over time. Pairing that stone against reclaimed wood balances cool and warm surfaces without relying on paint color to do the work.
Open-Plan Living Finds Balance Between Stone, Wood, and White Cabinetry
Stacked stone runs floor to ceiling beside built-in shelving with warm wood backing. Dark dining furniture anchors the foreground while white kitchen cabinetry and pendant lighting pull the eye deeper into the open layout.
- Ceiling fans with integrated lighting work harder than recessed fixtures alone in open plans
- Stone fireplace surrounds double as thermal mass, holding heat longer after the fire dies down
- Built-in cabinetry flanking a fireplace adds storage without pushing furniture into traffic paths
Carved Dark Wood and Metal Leaf Art Give This Cottage Bedroom Timeless Character
An ornate dark wood bed frame anchors the space, flanked by ceramic lamps on distressed nightstands. Floral metal wall art sits between two framed botanical prints. Patterned bedding, a trellis rug, and wood-plank flooring layer texture throughout.
