Every parent eventually builds a door in their head — the one room where nobody under twelve is welcome. The Wrenhollow is built around that idea, with a screened porch that closes off from the main living area, a split-bedroom layout that puts the kids on their own end, an open kitchen for the dinner-table chaos, and a primary suite that sits on the quiet side of the house.
Specifications
- Sq. Ft.: 3,236
- Bedrooms: 4
- Bathrooms: 3.5
Floor Plan – Main Floor
Single-story layout with the master suite tucked left, three bedrooms right, great room at center, screened porch off the back, and a dedicated office near the foyer.
Screened Porch with Cathedral Timber Frame Steals the Backyard
Exposed wood trusses anchor the screened porch gable, and board-and-batten siding paired with dark shingles keep the exterior from feeling like it’s trying too hard.
Vaulted Beams and a Sofa Deep Enough to Disappear Into
Those wood beams are doing real structural and visual work — they give the room its scale. The sectional is oversized in exactly the right way, and because the kitchen’s pendant lights are visible from this end of the great room, the open layout reads as deliberate rather than just walls that got removed.
Marble Island Big Enough to Lose Your Keys On Forever
Gold-veined marble countertops anchor the island, which seats enough people to require some negotiation about chairs. Black pendant lights with brass hardware keep the palette grounded, white shaker cabinets run wall to wall, and the stainless range sits under a custom hood with a pot filler overhead.
Fun Fact: White kitchens photograph brighter than they actually live because cameras expose for the lightest surface in the frame. That pot filler above the range sounds like a luxury right up until you’ve hauled a full stockpot of water across the kitchen for the hundredth time. And that veined quartz? Engineered to look like marble without the maintenance marble actually demands.
Coffered Ceilings and a Round Table That Ends the “Who Sits at the Head” Argument
Wainscoting, a brass pendant cluster, and a wood table set for eight give this dining room quiet formality without making anyone feel like they need to sit up straighter.
By The Numbers: Round tables seat the same number of guests as rectangular ones while taking up less floor space, which is why they keep appearing in dining rooms that flow into adjacent living areas. The coffered ceiling adds visual weight overhead without actually lowering the room — a useful trick in formal spaces that might otherwise feel like a gymnasium. Wainscoting also pulls some acoustic duty; the added wall mass absorbs sound, which matters more than people expect once a family dinner gets going.
Kitchen-to-Living Sightlines That Make the Stone Fireplace the Center of Everything
Three black pendants anchor the marble island, and the wood ceiling beams pull your eye across the room directly to the floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Hard to compete with that as a focal point.
Common Mistake: Pendant lights over an island look right when the bottom of the shade sits roughly 30 to 36 inches above the countertop. Hang them too high and they lose the feeling of task lighting altogether. Too low and anyone sitting at the island spends the meal staring directly into a shade.
Pin It
The exterior rendering shows board-and-batten siding with stone accents on a modern farmhouse form. Drop down to the floor plan and the single-level layout becomes clear: master suite tucked privately to one side, an office off the foyer, and a Great Room flanked by built-ins at the center of it all.
