Classic Colonial Design with Updated Curb Appeal

The exterior of this colonial-style home balances traditional proportions with contemporary materials chosen for durability and visual interest. Vinyl siding provides low-maintenance performance, while vinyl shake siding on the upper level adds texture and depth to the façade. This combination gives the home a classic appearance with a bold modern edge.

Open Floor Plan Suited for Modern Living

Inside, the home features an open floor plan that allows for easy movement between the kitchen, dining, and living areas. Large windows and recessed lighting work together to fill the space with natural light, amplifying the sense of openness throughout the main level. This open concept home layout is ideal for entertaining, family gatherings, and everyday living.

Throughout most of the home, red oak hardwood floors add warmth and continuity, a hallmark of hardwood floors in new construction. Tile flooring was selected for high-traffic areas, including the laundry room, drop zone, primary bathroom, and second-floor bathroom, providing a balance of beauty and durability.

Kitchen Design That Blends Style and Function

The kitchen serves as the centerpiece of the home, reflecting Sunwood’s approach to custom home interior design. Fantasy Brown granite countertops extend across the kitchen, pantry, and drop zone, tying these spaces together with rich, natural tones. Modern two-tone cabinetry adds contrast and visual interest while maintaining a clean, timeless look.

Designed with convenience in mind, the kitchen connects seamlessly to a walk-in pantry large enough to accommodate a second refrigerator, which is an increasingly popular feature in new construction luxury homes.

Smart Storage and Everyday Organization

One of the standout features of this home is its emphasis on organization. The drop zone mudroom design offers a dedicated space for shoes, coats, and bags, helping maintain a clutter-free entry point. This thoughtful planning supports the daily rhythms of a busy household while enhancing overall livability.

Comfort and Architectural Detail Throughout

The main living area is anchored by a cozy electric fireplace, providing warmth and ambiance during colder months. Moving upstairs, iron balusters line the staircase, introducing a subtle modern detail that complements the home’s traditional roots.

The primary bedroom suite includes a generous walk-in closet, creating a private retreat within the home. All additional bedrooms are also equipped with walk-in closets, an important feature in a four-bedroom home designed for comfort and storage.

Both the primary bath and hall bath feature quartz countertops, providing a durable and elegant surface that aligns with the home’s high-end finishes.
