On a scale of FBCoach to Joanna Gaines, how Modern Farmhouse is this?

Only concern is the garage deep enough for whatever you want to put in it?

And you really need to commit to shutters or no shutters. It’s like 2 different houses stuck together

That said, it’s straight Joanna, that’s all the rage right now.

Re: Not sure I could sleep under mismatched roofs


Apr 14, 2022, 10:06 AM

Believe me we could have gone way more Joanna. The black skinny windows, skip the shutters, etc. we put the big front porch on it and made it a classic 5,4, and a door, just a more classic look than some of the #magnolia#familyfarmhouse stuff you see these days

2024 orange level member flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

they may have the metal on the porches due to the slope


Apr 14, 2022, 10:55 AM [ in reply to Not sure I could sleep under mismatched roofs ]

of the roof being too flat for shingles. shingles can't go flatter than 4:12 slope, but in that case put metal on the whole thing.

date your house. 10 years from now we will be able to tell when your house was constructed. Not saying I don't like it, but to me, it's a fad. Just like I can look at the dark siding craftsman houses and tell they were build circa 2008-2015.

What are those trees doing next to the house?


Apr 14, 2022, 9:49 AM

That was a bad idea. I told our builder remove all trees so that if one falls, it won't hit the house.

Of course I have like 10 60 ft pines, 30 feet from the house.

Apr 14, 2022, 9:55 AM

Can't see the trash-burning pit, which I assume is in the back. No chickens running around in the yard. No angle showing outhouse placement.

Really not very farmy at all, in my unquestionable opinion.

ringofhonor-rhtig.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


looks similar, but much better than one like that near me.


Apr 14, 2022, 9:57 AM

it also has mixed roofing, but way more black metal, and dormers that have out-of-scale shed roofs, also metal. All of their black roof, shutters, doors, random trim is extremely glossy black. Looks awefull, but the worst is it's a couple hundred yards from US220, the major north-south 4 lane highway through Botetourt.

I bought a modern farmhouse plan from a Texas architect


Apr 14, 2022, 12:23 PM

My older son, an architect, helped me modify the roofline and a couple other exterior items. We also made some changes to the floorplan to better utilize space.
Turned out great with horizontal siding, board/batten in gables, stone highlights, mix of shingles and metal.
