The Modern farmhouse

Current, yet classic. This modern farmhouse sits close to the mountains, complimenting the farmhouse vibe with views of the ridge lines beyond the backyard meadow. The feel was achieved through an open common area, clean frame design and a whitewash tint in the finish oil. A uniquely bright atmosphere tempers itself with an easy disposition throughout. Simple appointments suggest coziness and comfort to its residents.
