This beautiful 2,232 square foot Modern Farmhouse brings together classic farmhouse character and a surprisingly sophisticated interior layout. Designed as a one-story home, it offers 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 1 half bath, a private main-level owner’s suite, dedicated home office, 433-square-foot bonus room, open great room, formal dining room, large kitchen island, walk-in pantry, mudroom, main-level laundry, wrap-around front porch, rear porch, outdoor kitchen, outdoor fireplace, and a 2-car garage with an optional 3-car configuration.
The first floor contains all 2,232 square feet of heated living space, so the household can comfortably live on one level. Above it, the optional bonus room adds another 433 square feet for recreation, hobbies, storage, a home theater, or other flexible uses.
The exterior is where this home immediately earns its farmhouse credentials. A generous wrap-around porch, timber-style pillars, brick skirt, triple dormers, and a strong 9:12 roof pitch give it a welcoming country presence.
But the real surprise happens around back.
The rear living area includes a wood-burning outdoor fireplace, outdoor kitchen, and uncovered patio, creating an entertaining zone that feels like another room of the house.
Inside, the great room rises to an impressive 16-foot vaulted ceiling with a wood ridge beam, while the foyer features an 11-foot ceiling. The combination gives a 2,232-square-foot house a considerably larger visual presence.
Exterior & First Impressions
The exterior combines traditional farmhouse proportions with contemporary details.
The wrap-around front porch is supported by substantial timber-style pillars and accented by a brick skirt, creating the relaxed character associated with classic farmhouse architecture.
Three front dormers add another layer of visual interest to the roofline and help break up the large roof plane.
The home features:
- Modern Farmhouse exterior styling
- Large wrap-around front porch
- Timber-style porch pillars
- Brick skirt accents
- Triple front dormers
- Large windows
- Rear porch
- Outdoor kitchen
- Wood-burning outdoor fireplace
- Uncovered rear patio
- Side-entry garage
- Optional 3-car side garage configuration
- 9:12 main roof pitch
- 75 ft 3 in overall width
- 70 ft 4 in overall depth
The 9:12 roof pitch gives the home a tall farmhouse silhouette.
The side-entry garage keeps the front elevation focused on the porch and architecture rather than garage doors.
That is an important detail.
A three-car garage can easily become the visual star of a house.
Here, the porch gets that job instead.
Entry & Interior Flow
The main entrance leads into a spacious foyer with an impressive 11-foot ceiling.
A barn door provides access to the dedicated office, creating a subtle farmhouse detail while also giving the workspace privacy.
The main floor includes:
- Welcoming foyer
- 11-foot foyer ceiling
- Open floor plan
- Split-bedroom layout
- Four bedrooms
- Two full bathrooms
- One half bath
- Main-level owner’s suite
- Dedicated office
- Great room
- 16-foot vaulted great-room ceiling
- Wood ridge beam
- Fireplace
- Built-in shelving
- Kitchen island with eating bar
- Walk-in pantry
- Formal dining room
- Mudroom
- Main-level laundry
- Wrap-around porch
- Rear porch
- Outdoor kitchen
- Outdoor fireplace
- 2-car garage
- Optional 3-car garage
- 433 sq ft bonus room option
The split-bedroom arrangement is one of the strongest planning decisions.
The owner’s suite occupies one end of the house.
The three secondary bedrooms sit toward the opposite side.
The central living areas connect the two zones.
That creates privacy without making the home feel divided.
Great Room – 16-Foot Vaulted Ceiling & Fireplace
The great room is arguably the architectural centerpiece of the interior.
It features:
- 16-foot vaulted ceiling
- Wood ridge beam
- Fireplace
- Built-in shelving
- Open connection with kitchen
- Open relationship with dining area
- Large windows
- Strong indoor-outdoor connection
The 16-foot vaulted ceiling immediately changes the character of the room.
Instead of feeling like a standard family room, the space has a much more dramatic sense of volume.
The wood ridge beam adds warmth and reinforces the farmhouse aesthetic.
The fireplace creates a natural focal point, while built-in shelving provides space for books, décor, media equipment, or family treasures.
The open connection with the kitchen means the great room remains part of the home’s social center.
Someone can be preparing dinner while everyone else relaxes nearby.
And when guests arrive, people naturally spread between the kitchen, great room, dining area, and outdoor spaces.
Kitchen – Island, Eating Bar & Walk-In Pantry
The kitchen is positioned across from the great room and is designed around an efficient central island.
It includes:
- Center kitchen island
- Eating bar
- Generous countertop workspace
- Walk-in pantry
- Cabinet storage
- Open relationship with great room
- Convenient connection with dining area
- Views toward the rear patio
The island with eating bar gives the kitchen a natural gathering point.
It can handle casual breakfasts, quick lunches, food preparation, homework, or conversations while dinner is being prepared.
The walk-in pantry provides additional storage away from the main counters.
That means bulk groceries, small appliances, serving pieces, and household supplies can stay organized without turning the kitchen into a storage warehouse.
The kitchen also has views toward the uncovered patio, strengthening the relationship between cooking and outdoor entertaining.
Formal Dining Room – Dedicated Family Dining
The formal dining room sits close to the kitchen, making it convenient for both everyday meals and larger gatherings.
It provides:
- Dedicated dining space
- Direct kitchen relationship
- Large dining table potential
- Entertaining flexibility
- Convenient access to the main living area
The room gives the home a slightly more traditional layer despite the otherwise open interior.
Everyday meals can happen at the kitchen island.
Family dinners can happen around the dining table.
Holiday meals can take over the entire space.
And when entertaining becomes serious, the dining room connects naturally with the kitchen and great room.
Owner’s Suite – Private Main-Level Retreat
The owner’s suite is positioned on one end of the house, away from the three secondary bedrooms.
It includes:
- Main-level owner’s bedroom
- Private ensuite bathroom
- Walk-in closet
- Vaulted ceiling
- Large windows
- Split-bedroom privacy
The vaulted owner’s bedroom gives the suite additional vertical volume.
That creates a more spacious feeling without requiring an enormous bedroom footprint.
The walk-in closet provides dedicated clothing storage, while the ensuite bathroom keeps the owner’s daily routine separate from the secondary bedroom bathroom.
The split-bedroom arrangement also gives the suite a quieter position in the home.
Primary Bathroom – Private Ensuite
The owner’s suite includes a dedicated full bathroom.
It provides:
- Private ensuite access
- Dedicated vanity area
- Full bathroom functionality
- Convenient connection with owner’s bedroom
- Separate from the secondary bedroom zone
The private bathroom is especially valuable in a four-bedroom home.
The secondary bedrooms can use their own bathroom without creating traffic through the owner’s private area.
Secondary Bedrooms – Three Flexible Rooms
The home includes three secondary bedrooms, giving it genuine four-bedroom capacity on the main level.
The bedrooms are positioned together on the opposite side of the home from the owner’s suite.
They provide:
- Family bedroom capacity
- Guest bedroom flexibility
- Good closet space
- Large window views
- Convenient shared-bath access
- Privacy from the owner’s suite
For a family with children, the three rooms can serve as dedicated bedrooms.
For a couple, one or more can eventually become offices, guest rooms, hobby rooms, or exercise spaces.
Because the rooms are grouped together, they create a clear secondary bedroom wing without requiring a second story.
Secondary Bathroom – Family-Friendly Layout
The secondary bedrooms share a full bathroom located within their bedroom zone.
This provides:
- Shared full bathroom
- Convenient bedroom access
- Family-friendly circulation
- Reduced traffic through the owner’s suite
- Easy access for guests
The arrangement keeps bathroom traffic concentrated in the secondary bedroom area.
That is particularly helpful when several people need to get ready at the same time.
Office – Private Front-Facing Workspace
One of the home’s most useful features is the dedicated home office near the front entry.
The office includes:
- Barn-door access
- Closet
- Built-in shelving
- Front-facing window
- Privacy from the main living areas
- Potential for work-from-home use
Its front location gives the room a quieter atmosphere.
The barn door adds a farmhouse-inspired design detail while allowing the office to be closed off when concentration is required.
The built-in shelving provides space for books, files, equipment, or decorative pieces.
It can function as a professional office, study, library, or creative workspace.
Mudroom – Organized Transition from Garage
The mudroom sits between the garage and interior living areas.
It includes lockers for household organization.
This is particularly useful for families because it gives everyday items a designated place.
The mudroom can organize:
- Shoes
- Coats
- Backpacks
- Sports equipment
- Outdoor gear
- Shopping bags
- School supplies
Instead of allowing all of those things to migrate into the kitchen, the mudroom catches them near the point of entry.
The garage also connects directly into this area, making the arrival sequence especially practical.
Park the car.
Walk inside.
Drop the bags.
Take off the shoes.
Carry on with life.
No obstacle course required.
Laundry – Convenient Main-Level Location
The home includes main-level laundry, keeping household chores conveniently close to the bedrooms and living areas.
It provides:
- Main-level laundry
- Convenient bedroom access
- Utility organization
- Efficient clothing-care workflow
- Easy household circulation
Since all four bedrooms are on the first floor, laundry never needs to travel between multiple living levels.
That is one of those details that may seem ordinary on a floor plan but becomes extremely valuable once the house is occupied.
Bonus Room – 433 Sq. Ft. of Flexible Space
The optional 433-square-foot bonus room provides additional space above the main level.
This room can be used as:
- Media room
- Game room
- Home theater
- Playroom
- Home gym
- Hobby room
- Teen retreat
- Creative studio
- Additional storage
At 433 square feet, the bonus room is large enough to serve as a genuine secondary living area.
It can absorb activities that might otherwise compete for space in the great room.
The family can watch movies upstairs.
Children can play upstairs.
A home gym can occupy the bonus area.
Or the room can remain unfinished until the household knows exactly what it needs.
That makes the bonus room particularly useful for long-term planning.
Wrap-Around Front Porch – Classic Farmhouse Living
The wrap-around front porch is one of the defining architectural features of the home.
It combines generous covered space with timber-style pillars and a brick skirt.
It provides:
- Covered front entry
- Wrap-around outdoor space
- Seating potential
- Farmhouse curb appeal
- Protected entrance
- Space for planters and décor
- Relaxed outdoor living
A wrap-around porch creates more than curb appeal.
It provides another usable outdoor zone.
Chairs can be positioned around the porch.
A small table can create a morning coffee spot.
Plants can soften the corners.
And the covered roof keeps the space useful even when the weather is less cooperative.
Rear Outdoor Living – Fireplace, Kitchen & Patio
The rear of the home is designed specifically for entertaining.
It includes:
- Rear porch
- Wood-burning outdoor fireplace
- Outdoor kitchen
- Uncovered patio
- Grilling area
- Outdoor dining potential
- Covered seating
- Entertainment space
The wood-burning outdoor fireplace provides a strong focal point.
It can anchor an outdoor seating arrangement and make the rear area useful during cooler evenings.
The outdoor kitchen provides a dedicated area for cooking and serving.
The uncovered patio can function as a grilling station, dining area, or additional seating zone.
Together, these features create a layered outdoor environment.
The covered porch provides shade.
The fireplace creates warmth.
The outdoor kitchen handles cooking.
The patio provides open-air space.
It is a surprisingly complete backyard setup for a 2,232-square-foot home.
Garage – 600 Sq. Ft. 2-Car Garage with Optional 3-Car Expansion
The standard design includes approximately 600 square feet of garage space with a two-car configuration.
An optional 3-car side garage can also be added.
The garage provides:
- Two-car parking
- Optional three-car configuration
- Approximately 600 sq ft of garage area
- Side-entry access
- Storage potential
- Workshop potential
- Direct mudroom connection
- Pedestrian entry door
The optional three-car configuration is particularly useful for homeowners who need additional vehicle or equipment storage.
The standard two-car garage can accommodate vehicles while leaving room for tools, bicycles, lawn equipment, storage cabinets, and workshop equipment.
The direct connection to the mudroom makes the garage practical for everyday family use.
Storage – Built-In Organization
Storage is distributed throughout the design rather than being concentrated in one area.
The home provides:
- Walk-in kitchen pantry
- Owner’s walk-in closet
- Bedroom closets
- Office closet
- Built-in office shelving
- Mudroom lockers
- Garage storage
- Potential bonus-room storage
This combination gives the household several places to organize everyday belongings.
The walk-in pantry handles food and kitchen equipment.
The mudroom handles family gear.
The office shelving handles work materials.
The garage handles larger equipment.
The bonus room can absorb recreational items.
That distribution helps keep the main living areas cleaner.
Foundation & Structural Options
The design is available with multiple foundation configurations.
Options include:
- Slab foundation
- Crawlspace foundation
- Basement foundation
The basement option is unfinished, allowing homeowners to potentially develop it later into storage or additional living space depending on the site and local building requirements.
A slab can offer a straightforward construction approach where appropriate.
A crawlspace provides access beneath the home for utilities and maintenance.
A basement requires excavation, concrete, waterproofing, drainage, stairs, and additional structural work, but it can provide considerable future flexibility.
The standard exterior framing is 2×4 wood construction, with an optional 2×6 conversion.
