Flexible Study

Discover this beautiful Farmhouse plan, beginning with a large front porch that will provide a shady respite on hot days and even has room for a real porch swing. The formal foyer and dining room create an elegant entry that leads to the wide-open family space and island kitchen. The family room is vaulted with a masonry fireplace and opens onto the rear covered veranda, which has a built-in barbecue and a nearby space for a hot tub. The large master suite opens to the veranda via French doors, and boasts a bath with dual vanities, a garden tub, a separate shower, and a large walk-in closet. The study can double as a guest room with an adjacent full hall bath. Upstairs are two more bedrooms and a hall bath. A bonus room invites later expansion. See more images, information, and the floor plan.

Country Charisma

This country charmer has been designed to meet the needs of a growing family, offering three large bedrooms with two-and-a-half baths in an open floor plan. In addition, you’ll find a formal dining room (easy to reach from the kitchen and butler’s pantry), a small but handy office, and a spacious bonus room upstairs. The highlight, however, is the terrific outdoor space: a wide front porch, a covered rear porch, and a large patio. Don’t miss the master suite’s dual sinks, large closet, and decorative ceiling treatment. See more images, information, and the floor plan.

Terrific Curb Appeal

This beautiful design offers traditional neighborhood styling along with great floor plan features. The great room features a tray ceiling, built-in cabinets, and excellent views. A well-equipped kitchen offers a central island, a snack bar, and easy access to the casual breakfast area. Buyers can relax in the expansive and well-appointed master suite, which includes dual walk-in closets, a garden tub, a separate shower, a water closet, and two sinks with lots of counter space. The bonus room provides space for a game room or home office and an optional bath. See more images, information, and the floor plan.

Out of the Ordinary

An elegant tower draws all eyes to this unique home. Inside, that tower holds the staircase that takes you up to the luxurious master suite. Buyers can take it easy in the window-side tub, the large shower, or the bedroom under a decorative tray ceiling. Two more bedrooms also occupy this level, sharing a full hall bath. On the main floor, the super-open layout makes it easy to move between the great room, the island kitchen, and the bright dining area (complete with a beautiful bay window). Handy storage abounds, especially in the mudroom on the way in from the two-car garage. See more images, information, and the floor plan.
