Farmhouse Plans

The classic farmhouse style house design plan conjures notions of a simpler time, plenty of room for a growing family and a strong connection to the land. Timeless features of classic Farmhouse design include clean lines, lap siding, steep roofs, and generous porches to enjoy the outdoors.

Farmhouse floor plans have become increasingly popular in recent years, as more and more people seek to reconnect with the simple pleasures of rural area living. These homes are characterized by their charming, traditional design, which typically includes architectural features like gabled roofs, large windows, a wide wraparound porch, and a focus on functionality and practicality.

One of the key features of traditional farmhouse home designs is their emphasis on outdoor living spaces. This is reflected in architectural details like the large, welcoming front porch or wrap-around porch that is a hallmark of these homes, which is often deep enough to accommodate rocking chairs or outdoor furniture. It may even feature a rear porch for extra functionality. This porch is not only a great place to relax and take in the view, but it also serves as an extension of the home's interior living space, providing an ideal spot for outdoor dining, entertaining, and socializing.

Another important aspect of modern farmhouse house plans is their efficient use of space. These homes are typically designed with an open floor plan, with the kitchen, dining room, and living room areas all connected in one large, communal space. This creates a sense of flow and connectivity between the different areas of the home, making it easy to entertain guests or keep an eye on children while preparing meals through the open kitchen. I Additional bedrooms may be available according to the house plan on the second floor or even on the first floor or main floor.

In addition to their functional design, modern farmhouse plans are also known for their warm, inviting aesthetic. These homes often feature contemporary touches such as natural materials like wood and stone. The overall effect is a inviting atmosphere that is perfect for relaxing and unwinding after a long day, with features like a cozy fireplace.

There are many different types of classic farmhouse style designs from the French Bresse house (characterized by its long length, brick exterior and wood shingle roof) to Norwegian farmhouses (made of timber or logs and built on the steep fjords) to the American farmhouse with its straightforward rectangular construction. Whichever farmhouse style homes appeal to you, their charming yet modest character fits into any neighborhood, in-fill lot or rural setting.
