Whether you’re raising a family or entertaining guests, this plan offers beautifully connected interior spaces, generous natural light, and charming details throughout.

Exterior Character & Architectural Details

The exterior instantly communicates French Country charm with steep roof pitches, shuttered windows, and a harmonious trio of materials—brick, stone, and lap siding. The color palette, architectural shingles, and refined window trims give the home a classic suburban presence while maintaining European elegance. Shaded porches, well-structured gables, and lush landscaping enhance curb appeal and frame the home beautifully from every angle.
