Exterior Design
This striking mountain farmhouse plan delivers a blend of rustic charm and modern elegance. According to the listing, it provides **2,113 sq ft** of heated living space, plus a **414 sq ft bonus** expansion above the garage.
The home features board-and-batten siding combined with stone accents—typical of mountain home aesthetics. Large windows and dormers punctuate the façade, bringing light and visual interest.
The entry is protected by an **8-ft deep covered porch**, reached through a pair of French doors.
Attached is a **3-car garage (902 sq ft)** at the front of the house, which also supports the bonus level above.
The roof is designed for mountain climates, with a steep primary pitch (10:12) and secondary slopes (3:12) to shed snow and add visual drama.
Interior Layout
The plan is primarily single level, with all **2,113 sq ft** on the main floor.
The bonus level above the garage adds **414 sq ft** of expansion space.
Entering from the front porch, you pass through a foyer that opens into a **vaulted great room** with exposed beams and a large stonework fireplace as focal point.
The kitchen is separated from the great room by a generous island (with seating for up to five). Behind it is a full pantry.
The dining area is adjacent, with windows on two sides. From there, sliding doors lead out to a grilling porch.
The home uses a **split bedroom layout**: the master suite is set to one side, while two additional bedrooms lie together on the opposite wing. Between them sits a laundry / mudroom buffer area.
