Stacked gables and a friendly front porch grace this farmhouse design, big enough for a large family. A bonus room allows expansion to a fifth bedroom, a playroom or a hobby room.
On the first floor, nine-foot ceilings are standard. Formal living and dining rooms flow into each other, offering a wonderful space for entertaining.
The family area in back includes a good-sized kitchen with a pantry closet, a built-in desk and a cooktop-eating island. A breakfast nook forms a transition to the family room with its cozy corner fireplace. Completing this level is a den off the foyer.
An L-shaped staircase leads upstairs, where doors to the four bedrooms close on an angle, adding interest. Note the laundry room, sensibly located near the bedrooms on this floor.
Three secondary bedrooms share a hall bath. The scissor-vaulted master bedroom opens to a bath with a skylit walk-in closet, garden tub, separate shower and his and her sinks.
Doors to the two-bay garage can be located either in front or on the side. A shop area is the perfect handyman's retreat.
