Sherman Oaks

Wood beams and board and batten siding give this family-friendly 2 story house plan a beautiful modern farmhouse look. Upon entering the home, guests are greeted by a two-story-high entry hall with views into the formal dining room. A few steps farther inside reveal a spacious great room with a fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases. Adjacent to the great room, the breakfast area lies open to the kitchen with its breakfast island, walk-in pantry and built-in desk. Just off the kitchen, a mudroom with walk-in closet and built-in lockers accesses the three-car garage. The garage features a storage area that could opt as space for a workshop. A secondary rear stairway leads from the kitchen area to the second level.

Upstairs, the master bedroom features a cozy, but naturally lit sitting area -- perfect for reading. The master bath offers pampering features that include his and her vanities, a corner tub, walk-in closet, and compartmented toilet. Bedrooms 2 and 3 have walk-in closets and share a centrally located hall bath. A second-level laundry conveniently serves all bedrooms with plenty of counter space for folding clothes.
