Sprawling across 3,223 square feet, this New American home is perfect for large families who love to entertain. It includes 4–6 bedrooms, 3.5–4.5 bathrooms, and a 3-car garage. The heart of the home is a great room that flows into the kitchen and dining area. Upstairs, an open area connects the two floors, maintaining an airy feel.
I Love the Timeless Muted Blue Exterior With White Trims!
Since this is a New American home, it combines elements of craftsman and farmhouse architectural styles. The oval accent windows and the bay window flood the interior with natural light while adding visual interest to the facade.
Main Level Floor Plan
I like the flow of this floor plan. The great room (with a two-story ceiling), kitchen, and dining area form a large, open space. There’s only one bedroom on this floor, though. That would be the master bedroom in the right wing.

Second Level Floor Plan
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a versatile loft area. But only one bedroom on this level has a separate bath. The other two share a Jack and Jill bathroom.
Basement Floor Plan With Two More Bedrooms
There’s a spacious game room, a wet bar, and two additional bedrooms in the basement. Note how the layout of the storage areas can keep clutter out of sight.

Here’s How the Slate Blue Exterior Looks Under Soft Lighting
I’m a huge fan of the mixture of textures here. It keeps things interesting, and the lighting definitely helps set the mood.
Angled View That Shows the Interesting Silhouette
From this angle, the multiple roof lines and turret-like structure create an eye-catching silhouette. Large windows promise bright, sunlit interiors. I also really like how the side is fully white.
Notice How the Rear Is Mostly White (Rather Than Blue)
Here’s a right-rear rendering of the house. I think the siding choice is well-suited for the patio. And that door right there opens to the dining area and the kitchen. So, you’ve got both the indoor and outdoor dining setups connected—smart!
Check out This Not-So-Shaded Seating Area
That little nook between the covered patio and the master bedroom’s walls works as an outdoor seating area. It’s not exposed to a whole lot of sunlight, anyway. The patio cover creates partial shade over that spot.
Lots of Windows Overlook the Backyard
Large windows blur the line between the indoors and the outdoors, capitalizing on what is, hopefully, a spectacular view. I also appreciate that the landscaping doesn’t compete with the architecture.
Fantastic First Impressions in the Foyer
A grand double door, flanked by potted plants, creates a welcoming and inviting atmosphere. I believe plants can bring life to any area. However, I’d be wary of those fiddle-leaf figs—they can be high-maintenance! But no matter what, I wouldn’t remove the rug or the chandelier. They look quite elegant and tie the different elements together.
Symmetrical Great Room With Chesterfield Sofas
Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the great room with natural light, creating an airy atmosphere. But the thing I’m drawn to the most is the symmetrical layout, with twin sofas in front of a brick fireplace that anchors the room. Simple but elegant!
Ceiling-Height Cabinets and a Pop of Color in the Kitchen
There are lots of small details that I love here. For one, the ceiling-height cabinets maximize storage while creating a sense of grandeur. Then, the geometric backsplash injects personality without clashing with the room’s vibe. Those globe pendant lights are a nice touch, too. However, my favorite part is the blue stools. They add a pop of color, breaking the sterile white-and-gray scheme.
Sun-Drenched Dining Area With a Linear Chandelier
Remember the doors that lead from the covered patio to the indoor dining area? Well, here’s the view from the inside. I dig the contrast between the crisp white walls and the dark window frames. And that chandelier is a perfect choice for the oval dining table.
