Is this the right plan for you?

Most regret comes from buying a plan that doesn't fit your life. Skim this before you decide.

Great fit if you…
  • Working with a smaller lot — the design fits within 60–69 ft width
  • Want an open floor plan with kitchen island and main gathering spaces flowing together
  • Love covered outdoor living without excessive square footage (covered front and back porches)
  • Need first-floor master suite with direct laundry access for convenience and aging in place
  • Seeking a compact, affordable farmhouse design under 1,900 sq ft
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need 4+ bedrooms for a growing family — this plan has 3
  • Want a two-story to maximize bedrooms — this is single-story design
  • Prefer expansive square footage over efficiency (1,817 sq ft total)

About this plan

Compact Modern Farmhouse for Smaller Lots

The Mulberry reinterprets the modern farmhouse within a compact 1,817 sq ft design that prioritizes open-concept flow and outdoor integration. This three-bedroom ranch features a two-car front-load garage and a solid slab foundation, making it ideal for smaller lots. Clean lines and an inviting covered front porch introduce a voluminous interior filled with architectural light and openness.

The main floor centers on an open social core where the kitchen, great room, and dining area merge into one bright, airy space. The gourmet kitchen is a highlight, equipped with a central island and high-end finishes that flow naturally into the gathering zones. The first-floor master suite is a private retreat with premium finishes and direct laundry access from the wardrobe, ensuring comfort and convenience.

Outdoor relaxation centers around covered front and back porches, perfect for year-round entertaining and landscape enjoyment. A dedicated mudroom off the garage keeps daily life organized and efficient. A walk-in pantry and butler's pantry add chef-friendly storage and function.
