This delightful modern farmhouse packs a punch of style and smart design into about 1,650 sq ft.
With 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms plus a handy powder room, a spacious open living zone and both front and rear porches, it’s perfect for today’s lifestyle—without that “I built a fortress” vibe.
Curb Appeal & Welcome Home Vibes
White board-and-batten, a generous covered front porch, and timber-accented posts give this home the warm-and-inviting look of a farmhouse that’s happy to see you come home.
(Bonus: you can actually *sit* on the porch, maybe with a lemonade … or iced tea … or pumpkin-spiced something.)
Open Living That Makes Sense
Step inside and the floor plan flows: the great room opens directly into the dining and kitchen area, while a tray ceiling or vaulted element draws your eye upward and gives the space that “bigger than it looks” feeling.
The kitchen island says “let’s hang out,” the walk-in pantry says “I got you,” and the rear porch just outside the living area says “let’s grill.”
Bedrooms that Work with Your Life
The master suite sits quietly on one side of the home, giving you privacy and that “finally, my zone” feeling.
It includes its own full bath and closet space sized for real clothes (not just the “I’ll wear that once” pile).
On the opposite side, two more bedrooms and another full bath create a smart split-layout—great for kids, guests, or turning one into the home-office-that-miraculously-becomes-a-guest-room when needed.
Details That Earn Their Keep
- Powder room near the main living area = no “why is there only one bathroom?” crisis during movie night.
- Rear covered porch extends the living outdoors—hello, fresh air evening chats.
- Compact footprint (~58′ wide × ~54′ deep) makes this plan site-friendly for many lots. 1
- Designed with a side-entry 2-car garage (~533 sq ft) to keep cars, storage, and clutter off your main view. 2

Why This Plan Makes Sense (And Smiles)
It’s compact without feeling tight, stylish without being over the top, and flexible enough to adapt—whether you’re hosting friends, working from home, or simply enjoying your evenings in. In short: modern farmhouse charm meets real-life usability.
