Sometimes the challenge is to fit a lot of square footage onto a small lot. Other times, it's to get more bedrooms and functionality into a small one-story plan that can appeal to many different buyers.

This new farmhouse plan meets the latter situation nicely.

On the exterior, a harmonious mix of materials includes painted brick, siding, and board and batten. Metal roof accents add a sleek touch without requiring the whole roof to be metal.

Inside, the main gathering areas keep things open and simple. The island kitchen flows into the dining area and then out to the back porch, where an optional outdoor kitchen awaits. On the right side of the home, the primary suite gives owners privacy away from the other three bedrooms. They'll also appreciate the surprisingly spacious bathroom with a freestanding tub and separate shower.

On the way to the garage, convenient details include a walk-in pantry, lockers, and a desk.
