Floor Plan Overview

Main Level: A gracious porch leads to a foyer that opens directly to the living area. The kitchen anchors the center with an island and quick access to the garage entry, powder room, and a highly functional mudroom wall with hooks, cubbies, and bench. Large windows frame rear-yard views, and sliding doors can be specified for deck or patio access. The dining area supports both daily meals and weekend gatherings without feeling cramped.

Upper Level: The staircase arrives at a light-filled landing. Two secondary bedrooms share a full hall bath with a double-bowl option. The Owner Suite features a tray ceiling upgrade, a generous walk-in closet, and a private bath with dual sinks, large shower (or tub/shower combo), and linen storage. A dedicated laundry closet sits near all bedrooms for efficiency.

Architectural Style: Modern Farmhouse with Minimal Traditional & Coastal Vernacular Influences

On the exterior, the Modern Farmhouse language is unmistakable—board-and-batten siding, clean gable forms, crisp white palette, and a standing-seam metal roof accent. The plan also borrows from Minimal Traditional homes in its restrained trim and compact massing, avoiding overly ornate details so the façade looks tidy on narrow lots. In warmer or humid regions, a touch of Coastal Vernacular inspires the airy porch and elevated threshold, promoting breezes and providing a welcoming, sheltered entrance.

Design Options & Upgrades

• Kitchen package upgrades: 36" range, chimney hood, drawer microwave in the island, and pull-out pantry inserts.
• Bath upgrades: Frameless glass shower, double vanity in secondary bath, and a transom window for daylight without sacrificing privacy.
• Energy & envelope: Zip-R or continuous exterior insulation, advanced air sealing at plates and penetrations, and optional ERV for indoor air quality.
• Finish palettes: Classic white with black windows for contrast, or warmer coastal-beige siding with soft gray trim and a pale blue door.
• Site adaptability: Works with slab, crawlspace, or basement foundations; the compact footprint simplifies infill approvals.

Buildability & Cost-Conscious Detailing

Every line in this plan is drawn with trades and schedules in mind. Straightforward framing, stacked plumbing walls, and a simple roof geometry keep bids predictable. Window groupings and framing modules align, reducing waste. The garage is intentionally modest to preserve backyard space—perfect for a small patio, lawn, or garden shed while still meeting parking requirements in many municipalities.

Sustainability & Comfort

• Right-sized glazing balances daylight and thermal performance; specify low-e coatings tuned to your climate zone.
• Mechanical zoning is supported by the stacked layout, improving comfort and efficiency.
• Material longevity through durable siding, metal roofing accents, and rot-resistant porch details.
