The farmhouse look is great, but a luxury farmhouse design is even better. By combining custom home luxury living with the simplicity of the farmhouse chic style, you can create a unique custom home perfect for entertaining and daily living.
Before you get started, here are a few ideas for luxury farmhouse designs for custom homes:
Wrap around porches provide amazing views and plenty of space for outdoor entertainment.
Imagine hosting a cookout or barbeque with all of your friends and family hanging out on oversized swings or relaxing on comfortable porch chairs while sipping their favorite beverage. If outdoor entertainment spaces and amazing, natural aesthetics are on your list of must haves in custom home designs, then you have to have a wrap around porch. As far as farmhouse custom homes are concerned, wrap around porches are a staple that take the simple style to luxury home status. By adding outdoor living areas, your wrap around porch will be the summer destination for the whole neighborhood.
A double sided fireplace means you can enjoy the warmth of a winter fire from multiple rooms.
Fireplaces aren’t reserved for family rooms or even great rooms anymore. Instead, you can (and should) enjoy them from any room that you want to. Master suites with fireplaces create an even more romantic and intimate atmosphere, but you can take that aesthetic into the master bath with a double sided fireplace. A double sided fireplace can also provide warmth to your family room while setting the mood in your dining room.
Walk-in-pantries mean more storage and prep area for entertaining and everyday life.
There never seems to be enough room for everything in the kitchen, but how do you add more storage space without losing counter space or space to move around? Walk-in-pantries are the perfect solution and they add a great luxury farmhouse feel to any custom home. Your custom home builder can build exactly what you need in a walk-in-pantry. Microwaves, blenders, juicers, and food processors can easily be tucked into the walk-in-pantry. Plus, you’ll have even more space to prepare the food for your next party.
A large mudroom gives everyone a space to kick off their shoes.
Clutter can build up all over the house. The counters in your kitchen can become overrun with papers, bills, and backpacks. The entryway becomes a locker for sports gear and tennis shoes. You lead a busy life, so keeping everything organized can be a little difficult. However, with a mud room, keeping everything organized is as simple as tucking a pair of shoes under a bench. With a good mudroom, you can install hooks for everyone’s coat and bag, include a bench for seating, and even have built in storage. Your laundry room might even be in the mudroom and it can feature a folding table, extra clothes baskets, and hanging racks to dry clothes on. The mudroom is a universal room that every great luxury farmhouse design needs to include.
