Today’s modern farmhouses paint the picture of an enticing lifestyle: a bright, open place for your family to grow. Nothing too fancy, nothing too formal. But maybe a bit of glam in the form of a chandelier or super-sized kitchen island. These home plans capture the mood perfectly.

In the great room, three sets of French doors create indoor-outdoor flow between here and the patio. A pocket office sits behind barn doors for a charming spot to study or work from home. On the left side, the master suite offers owners a huge walk-in closet, access to the screened porch, and a deluxe bathroom with two sinks and a separate tub and shower. Another bedroom on the opposite end of the home makes an easy-to-reach suite for an in-law or visitors. See more images, information, and the floor plans.
This plan does quite a bit with 1,792 square feet. The open layout makes it easy to move from the living room to the island kitchen, out to the porch, and over to the dining room. Deep porches create spacious outdoor living areas on front and back of the home. Tucked into an alcove near the second bedroom, a desk provides space for homework or hobbies. A third bedroom sits upstairs, offering a private suite for an older child, live-in relative, or special guest. Don’t miss the master suite’s walk-in closet or double sinks. See more images, information, and the floor plans.
Flexible and family-friendly, this farmhouse stands out. The study can also serve as a formal dining room or hobby space on the main floor, with two entrances adding extra utility and good flow. Everyone will love hanging out around the island in the open kitchen, which overlooks the great room and open dining area. A series of French doors open to the back porch, even from the master suite. In less-than-perfect weather, take the party to the screen porch. See more images, information, and the floor plans.
Beautifully combining country style with a modern layout, this plan delivers the best of old and new. The graceful front porch wraps around the side and eventually meets a screened porch in back, giving you plenty of options for outdoor enjoyment. Inside, the little details make all the difference, like double linen closets near the hall bathroom and the master suite’s walk-in closet. See more images, information, and the floor plans.
