This modern farmhouse spreads across about 3,872 sq ft, offering 4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths and a 3-car garage in a layout that celebrates light, vaulted volume and abundant porch living. The plan’s three shed dormers—echoed front and back—bring daylight into a dramatic two-story great room while the generous front and rear porches frame the home’s curb appeal and outdoor life. 0
Exterior Design & Curb Appeal
The façade reads as contemporary farmhouse with classic gestures: a wide 6’8″ front porch beneath crisp dormers and balanced 3-over-3 windows that create rhythm and scale. The three matching shed dormers add charm and vertical emphasis without overwhelming the horizontal farmhouse lines, giving the street face a calm, crafted presence. 1
Porches, Outdoor Living & Orientation
Porch life is central here. The shallow but welcoming front porch provides covered curbside seating, while a deep 14′ rear porch extends living outdoors—perfect for morning coffee, alfresco meals and long evenings with lights strung over comfortable seating. French doors off the porches create direct, graceful connections between interior rooms and these outdoor rooms, making the porches feel like natural extensions of daily life. 2
Arriving & Moving Through the Home
A thoughtful entry sequence leads from the front porch into a foyer that opens toward the great room. The two-story great room is the home’s theatrical focal point: with dormer-lit clerestory windows and a sense of vertical drama, it visually ties together main-floor public rooms and provides a lofty atmosphere while still feeling warm and intimate. Sightlines intentionally draw the eye through to the rear porch and yard. 3
Main Living: Kitchen, Dining & Great Room
The open plan circles around the great room: a large kitchen with a generous island anchors casual life and entertaining, while the dining zone slips adjacent for effortless flow. A farmhouse sink under a window and a well-sized pantry keep the kitchen practical for family life, while multiple access points to the porch make carrying food outside effortless—ideal for summer parties or quiet dinners beneath the overhang. 4
Private Wings & Bedrooms
The main level hosts the primary suite in a private wing, offering a restful retreat with generous closet space and a thoughtfully arranged bath. Three additional bedrooms provide family and guest flexibility, with baths placed for privacy and convenience. The bedroom placement balances ease of access to shared areas with separation for quiet and rest. 5
Bonus Spaces, Flex Rooms & Storage
Beyond the core rooms, the plan includes flexible spaces that adapt: a home office or study, optional bonus spaces above, and abundant storage through closets and a sizable pantry. Service spaces—mudroom, laundry and garage entry—are positioned to keep daily comings and goings tidy so primary rooms remain uncluttered. The three-car garage allows storage for vehicles and outdoor gear without sacrificing yard-facing aesthetics. 6
