Nestled near a lush neighborhood park, this two-story plan captures the charm of the idyllic surroundings with a farmhouse aesthetic and a modern touch. The timeless architectural design is set within tree-lined streets and white picket fences with rich custom details, including recessed windows, wood trim, board-and-batten siding, and a brick porch.
Strong proportions are reminiscent of a classic farmhouse design and give a charming first impression within the community. A dominant front gable roof draws attention to the entry and enhances the neighborhood street scene.
The spacious four-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom home with loft provides all the amenities of contemporary living, with custom-built quality. Abundant windows create a light-filled interior, and the large entry foyer establishes a unique sense of arrival. The formal living room leads to an open kitchen with ample storage and entertaining conveniences.
A ground-floor bedroom suite offers privacy for visitors or a solution to aging-in-place needs. Upstairs, comfort is maximized with a private owner’s suite with a large walk-in closet, and a flexible-use den that is perfect for a media room, playroom or home office.

Judges’ Comments | This is a good plan for a compact lot, with the garage set back to not overpower it. The site line from the foyer is unobstructed, with the stairs hidden out of view, to showcase the beautiful interior of the home.
