House Description

This rustic modern farmhouse plan balances functional efficiency with refined spatial design. The main living area centers on a vaulted Great Room, where expansive glass doors extend the interior toward a private courtyard deck, shared with the master suite. The kitchen features a full-height pantry wall in lieu of upper cabinetry, emphasizing uninterrupted sightlines and a minimalist character. Above both bedroom wings, conditioned attic spaces provide discreet yet practical storage. Totaling 1,430 square feet, the layout accommodates three bedrooms and two baths, offering flexible use as a family residence, getaway home, or short-term rental.

This design promotes an environmentally sustainable and healthy living environment, while also being affordable to maintain as it ages. Notable features include:

• A super-insulated building shell that utilizes traditional 2x6 framing in conjunction with Huber Zip System® R-12 Insulated Panels for external insulation.
• The combination of extra insulation and a compact building size results in reduced energy consumption for heating and cooling.
• Durable, low-maintenance fiber cement exterior finishes help minimize long-term maintenance costs and reduce wildfire risk.
• Interior materials are carefully selected to be low or no-VOC, ensuring healthy indoor air quality.
