Modern farmhouse house plans combine the traditional appeal of farmhouses with architectural aspects of contemporary design. Expect to see gables and porches with clean, simple lines outside and open-concept spaces inside. Large modern windows are typical—they define exterior style, flood the interior with natural light, and bring in great views. Modern farmhouse designs fall under the transitional house plan category and are perfect for those looking for a unique yet balanced home.
Traditional farmhouses often have front porches with railing, clapboard siding, and windows with historically accurate divided lites. Modern farmhouses, on the other hand, simplify and open up key features. They forgo porch railing and divided lites, and also favor board and batten siding due to its trendy vertical orientation and defined lines. Inside, a traditional farmhouse may have a formally partitioned floor plan while modern farmhouses combine common areas into one great room.
Modern farmhouse plans have streamlined exteriors with clean gables and/or dormers and spacious interiors that often include volume ceilings. Oversized and multi-unit windows strike a contemporary tone while wood beam details add a rustic touch in many designs. Neutral colors are favored, with either black or white exteriors and interiors finished with white and wood tones.
