Tired of modern farmhouses? Well, house plan buyers aren’t—the style is still gaining in popularity. Here’s a new one with 1,747 square feet and some surprising amenities.

On the exterior, the usual white siding gets jazzed up with some warm accents and eye-catching garage doors (as suggested in this rendering). The front porch provides a spacious, relaxing place to spend a summer evening.

Take a look at the main floor plan. First, check out the porch in back. It wraps around the side of the home to connect with the laundry room, making it easier to drop off muddy shoes before heading into the house. The main suite also opens to the back porch. In the kitchen, seating at the bar creates a relaxed dining zone.

Upstairs, the secondary bedrooms showcase walk-in closets and share a hall bath that boasts two sinks. A bonus room and optional bunk room create opportunities for expansion.
