Plan Description
Farmhouse Plan with Open Concept Living and Beautiful Front Porch
New Modern Farmhouse Plan 56700 has 2,553 square feet of living space, 3 bedrooms, and 2.5 bathrooms. Anyone who loves Farmhouse style will not be disappointed because the home has two large covered porches. When it's time to expand, the upper level bonus room will add recreation space for your family.Antique white paint and a silver metal roof help to reflect the sunlight and keep the home cooler in the hot summer sun. Rustic wood porch columns lend to the country style curb appeal. Side lights border the front door. The front door color matches the porch columns.
The plan comes standard with a 2 car side load garage, but there is a 3 car option available for an additional fee when you call to order. The back storage room measures 4'8 x 5', and it's a great place to put up shelves and organize your tools.
Outdoor Living Space, Modern Farmhouse Style
The front porch is 6' deep and 35' long. Therefore, you can fit quite a few rocking chairs. Making it even more attractive, two tall windows on each side of the front door create balance.
The back porch is 41'10 wide x 10'4 deep. From inside, you can enter the rear porch through a set of French doors. Order a large table if you like outdoor dining and grilling on the porch.
Open Living Space With Special Features
This Modern Farmhouse Plan has an open floor plan. For example, the great room, dining room and kitchen are all open to one another.
Decorative beams and brick features adorn the main living space and add country charm to the home.
Several design choices make the kitchen bright and cheerful. Firstly, light streams inside through a large picture window over the sink. Secondly, light reflects from the white stone counter top on the island. Thirdly, light reflects off the stainless steel appliances.
The kitchen has a hidden walk-in pantry which measures 8'6 x 5'. Similarly, a lower cabinet hides the trash can. As a result, you can keep unsightly trash and cooking supplies out of sight.
Homebuyers will love this Modern Farmhouse Plan because it has a gas log fireplace surrounded by built-ins. Furthermore, you have a nice view because of the abundant windows in the great room.
Modern Farmhouse Plan With 3 Bedrooms
Bedrooms 2 and 3 are located at the front of the house. They both have a good-sized closet. The bathroom offers privacy because it has a split design. For example, the double vanity is separated from the toilet and shower area. While one child showers, the other can brush his teeth.
The master bedroom is located in the rear of the house. The measurements are 14' x 16'. It has a vaulted ceiling which makes the room feel spacious. The ensuite features a his and hers vanity, custom shower, whirlpool tub, and private water closet. In addition, there is a walk-in closet measuring 11'10 x 7'2.
Notice the convenient layout of the smaller rooms. Firstly, the master closet is connected to the laundry room through a pocket door. Secondly, the laundry room is connected to the mudroom. Thirdly, parents will appreciate the mud room because it has built-in lockers for hanging coats and book bags. Drop zones always make family organization easier!

Plan modification is a way of turning a stock plan into your unique custom plan. It's still just a small fraction of the price you would pay to create a home plan from scratch. We believe that modification estimates should be FREE!
We provide a modification service so that you can customize your new home plan to fit your budget and lifestyle.
Email Designer This is the best and quickest way to get a modification quote!

Q & A
Ask the Designer any question you may have. NOTE: If you have a plan modification question, please click on the Plan Modifications tab above.
Previous Q & A
A: Board and batten siding is specified. The manufacturer is up to the homeowner.
A: Approximately 5' x 5'.
A: We can certainly provide images for you to use. However, you would need to sign a marketing license agreement stating that the original design belongs to the home designer. There would also have to be verbiage on the images stating that the original plans are copyrighted by the designer.
A: 4'-0" X 8'-4"
A: Adding the 3rd car garage adds approximately 10-11 feet to the depth of the bonus room.
A: The plan shows board and batten siding. The brand is not specified as it is up to the homeowner to select finish materials.
A: The ceiling heights should be shown on the floorplan. Closets, halls, etc. will generally be the same height as the room they serve.
A: The side walls are approximately 5' tall and slope up to the 9' ceiling height.
A: Yes....the bonus room will also increase by the same dimensions as the garage (increase by 11').
A: Garage door is an 18' door....8' tall.
A: Unfortunately, there are no pictures with a three car option available.
A: Yes...the bonus room will enlarge by the same distance that the garage does.
A: Unfortunately we do not have a rendering for all of the additional options available. The front of the house will look the same with the exception of the front of the garage moving forward 11'.
A: The mechanical systems will be located by your mechanical contractor based on the systems that you install. Generally, the HVAC systems will be located in the attic space, but could be located in the basement if you choose that foundation option. The water heater might be located on the exterior of the house if you choose a tankless model, or could be located in the storage room if you choose a tank model. This is why the locations of these systems must be determined on site. Thanks!
A: The measurement includes the sloped ceiling areas. The side walls are approximately 5' tall, so they are still adequate for usable space. The window above the front door is simply for aesthetic purposes and does not access any space other than the attic.
A: All interior brick is decorative.
A: There is an abundance of attic space available over the entire plan. There might be room to have a short walk-in door from the bonus room, but right now the access is from an access panel in the stairwell. The ceilings will definitely be sloped since an attic is the space below the roof framing which is sloped.
A: The beams that you see in the photos are decorative, but there are structural beams above in the attic where needed. The bonus room will add 400 sf.
A: The rendering shows board and batten siding. There are many different manufacturers of this type of siding so it will be up to you to pick the exact product that fits within your preference and budget.
A: This is just a computer generated rendering and no specific manufacturer colors were used. It is just an artist's depiction of the home.
A: You are correct....plumbing is based entirely off of your site conditions. This is why plumbing drawings are not included. Typically the plans are fulfilled with only one foundation type. You can receive both as long as there are no other options selected. Otherwise the drawings would have to be amended for multiple foundations which would result in additional fees.
A: Attic space is available over all heated areas of the home. How much is used as storage is up to you. Access is from the bonus room stairwell.
A: The windows in question are for aesthetic purposes only and do not serve any living area of the design.
A: The bonus room will increase the same distance as the three car garage below. The three car option adds 11' to the depth which will be added to the bonus room as well.
A: So much of energy efficient home design comes down to the materials, appliances, and mechanical systems that are selected by the homeowner. Since the plans are not specifying the exact models, brands, or specs of these homeowner selected items, it will be better for you to work with your builder in order to achieve your energy efficiency goals.
A: A vaulted ceiling can be easily added. This is a simple change that your contractor can make on site or you can click the “Modifications” link to inquire as to a price and timeline.
A: Yes...a roof plan is provided in the construction drawings when purchasing the plan.
A: The exact material and finishes of the beams are not provided in the plans since these are owner-selected items. The beams in the brick openings are specified to be 12x12 and the beams in the great room are 8x8.
A: The reversal can be sent out the same day if ordering electronic files. However, if you add or subtract footage and change room sizes, this would be a modification, and you would need to submit a request by clicking the modifications link. Price and timeframe will depend on the complexity of the changes that you would like to make, but generally speaking modifications will take anywhere from 4-6 weeks.
A: There is no floor plan available for the basement since it is an unfinished basement. The basement area will include all areas under the heated (yellow shaded) space of the main floor.
Common Q & A
A: Yes you can! Please click the "Modifications" tab above to get more information.
A: The national average for a house is running right at $125.00 per SF. You can get more detailed information by clicking the Cost-To-Build tab above. Sorry, but we cannot give cost estimates for garage, multifamily or project plans.
