3-Bedroom, 1474 Sq Ft Contemporary Plan with High Ceilings

This 3-bedroom, single-story home represents an updated take on the American ranch, giving it a contemporary farmhouse feel. The gable rooflines, simple front porch, and double-door entry create a welcoming presence. With 1474 living square feet, the smartly designed interior suggests a larger footprint. Nine- and ten-foot ceilings add to the spaciousness. The family room and kitchen are the home's hub of activity. With access to the front and rear porches, the family room enjoys plenty of sunlight plus the ability to expand entertaining to the outdoor living areas. The open-concept kitchen includes an island with an eating bar plus a small walk-in pantry, while the dining area overlooks the rear yard.

With a split-bedroom layout, the floor plan efficiently uses the space while also providing for additional privacy. The master suite includes a large walk-in closet and a master bath with separate his and her sink vanities, a shower, and a large tub. Bedrooms #2 and #3 share a hallway bathroom. Ultimately, this design blends in with rural or suburban surroundings, inspired by a traditional style that is at the same time "of the moment."
