Exterior Design
This modern farmhouse presents about **1,645 square feet** of heated living space, with a nicely detailed exterior. It features a **10-foot deep front porch** with a centered gable above it, including decorative windows that add charm and curb appeal.
At the back there’s a **40 ft 8 in wide by 9 ft deep** porch, another covered outdoor space making the house feel more expansive outdoors.
The home uses a **side-load 2-car garage**, about **615 sq ft** in area, which helps keep the front facade clean and unobstructed.
Roof pitches are steep: **10:12** on primary roof surfaces, giving dramatic lines in silhouette. Exterior walls are built 2×4, with an optional upgrade to 2×6 for better insulation.

The master suite is positioned for privacy, tucked away from more public zones, and it features its own vaulted ceiling (~13 ft 5 in) for added spaciousness. Utility / laundry room is nearby for convenience.
Floor Plan:
Bedrooms & Bathrooms
This plan has **2 to 3 bedrooms**: the master bedroom and two additional rooms which can serve as guest bedrooms, children’s rooms, or a study.
There are **2 full bathrooms**. One is in the master suite; the other serves the secondary bedrooms/guests.
Living & Dining Spaces
The great room is central, vaulted, open to the kitchen, and encourages family gathering / entertaining. High ceilings and large porch access help draw in light.
Dining space shares this openness, placed to benefit both indoor flow and view toward the rear porch. The design avoids excessive halls.
