Fresh Breezes on the Porch

It’s all about relaxed living in this farmhouse design, which would make a great vacation or primary residence. The kitchen seats six and overlook the open great room, which in turn opens out to the screened porch in back (when you want a little extra protection against insects and such). Other highlights include the super-spacious laundry room, the master suite’s big walk-in closet, and a roomy office upstairs. The lower level holds parking, flex space, storage, and even a safe room. See more images, information, and the floor plans.


Medium-Sized Modern Design

Modern, warm, and welcoming, this 2,370-square-foot home can fit on a modestly sized lot. A 3-sided fireplace creates a neat focal point in the living room. Over in the kitchen, four people can sit at the large island. Check out the private master suite upstairs. See more images, information, and the floor plans.

Outstanding Flow

This brand-new farmhouse plan features 2,095 square feet and a very open layout between the island kitchen and the vaulted great room. The master suite steps out to the back porch, which wraps all the way around the side and to the front. See more images, information, and the floor plans.


Maximizes a Scenic Lot

Vacation homes are all about the views. This one is prepared to take advantage of a scenic site, with a spacious deck, covered porch, and wall of windows. The vaulted great room encourages mingling around the kitchen’s island or near the cozy fireplace. Two bedrooms sit on this level, while the best views are reserved for the master suite upstairs. See more images, information, and the floor plans.
