Timeless design details like mixed siding, metal roof accents, and a welcoming front porch deliver country curb appeal to this modern farmhouse plan. The layout inside encourages modern living with excellent flow between the great room, the dining area, and the kitchen. Check out the two-sided fireplace! We love the extra-big island and the corner built-in breakfast nook.
A mudroom with a bench and a handy home office rest next to the two-car garage. Located on the main level, the primary suite shines with two walk-in closets, dual sinks, a spacious shower, and a separate tub. Don’t miss the fun activity room on the second floor.

Just under 28 feet wide, this contemporary plan would work well on a compact lot.

Inside, the island kitchen flows seamlessly to the dining area and the living room, where sliding glass doors open to the back.
The primary suite and two additional bedroom suites rest on the second level. The laundry room is conveniently located up here as well. A versatile loft is a welcome addition.

Here’s a contemporary Prairie house plan with thoughtful details. The layout creates effortless flow between the great room, the island kitchen, and the dining area. Just off the kitchen, a patio invites you outside.
A smart detail: the two-car garage gives you dedicated storage space. A study offers flexibility and would work well as a home office. The unfinished portion of the basement can be completed now or later.
