French Country Style

The interior of this handsome two–story home features clean lines combined with beautiful wood details, which produce a feeling of spaciousness and comfort. The modest exterior materials – the plans call for a stucco finish, accented with stone veneer and wood details – should help to keep construction costs down.

The covered front porch is designed with a stone facade, and it provides plenty of room to sit and enjoy the outdoors. After entering the foyer, a pair of doors to your left leads to a study/guest room with a closet, and direct access to a full bath. Straight ahead is the dramatic great room. It features a 20′ high ceiling, a fireplace, and windows along the rear wall that look out to the rear patio. On one side of the fireplace is a door that opens onto a covered patio, and on the other side is space for media, and a small vestibule with a coat closet and the full bathroom. To the right of the great room, past the stairs to the bedrooms upstairs, is a large kitchen with a sunlit breakfast nook and a walk–in pantry. The kitchen has a square center island, which has room for eating, and the breakfast nook has sliding glass doors that accesses the rear patio. From the kitchen, a door leads to a laundry room, which accesses the three–car garage. A built–in hutch is conveniently located next to an arched opening to a formal dining room with a tray ceiling.

Upstairs, the landing opens up to a large loft space with a balcony looking down to the great room, and windows looking out to the front, creating an ideal space for reading or for a playroom. The left wing is devoted to the master bedroom suite, which has a tray ceiling and sliding glass doors to a private deck. The large master bath area has a private toilet room, both a tub and a shower, two separate sinks, and a huge walk–in closet. The right wing has two more bedrooms, which are separated by a full bathroom with two sinks.
