Featured House Plan: The Marine Farmhouse

This simple yet unique house plan was originally designed and constructed for a site that had a beautiful back yard setting of woods and a stream. The house plan takes advantage of that by spreading the interior spaces out across the width and through the abundant use of windows. One approaches the home via a continuous open porch, unencumbered by columns spanning the entire width of the house. An exterior “nook” provides the perfect place to have a cup of coffee and to watch the world go by. A similar open porch at the rear of the home provides an environment with more solitude. The interior of the main floor features a functional mudroom, a mini office and an open floor plan filled with light from all directions. Upstairs 3 bedrooms are neatly tucked in under a sloping ceiling, while cleverly placed dormers provide the interior spaces with additional natural light and views.
