Perfect for relaxing getaways and cozy evenings, farmhouse plans and cabin plans are the quintessential home designs for the fall season. Boasting timeless styles, indoor-outdoor living, open layouts, and captivating charm, these home plans are ideal for all kinds of families. Rustic and uncomplicated, cabin plans offer a sense of simplicity and a love for the great outdoors. Much like cabin plans, farmhouse plans exude a warm homey feel, and lots of indoor-outdoor living spaces (such as a wraparound front porch).

This striking cabin plan (plan923-23) features appealing rustic touches and many contemporary amenities. The open layout makes it easy to hang out and move between the great room (where you can curl up by the fireplace or step out to the grilling porch), the dining area, and the island kitchen.
Have a seat at the snack bar for a bite, then head back to the master suite to relax in the large shower. Once you've picked out a comfy outfit from the walk-in closet, head down to the lower level for games, drinks (check out the wet bar), and stargazing from the porch. A full bath makes this area suitable for overflow guests.
This beautiful farmhouse plan (plan17-2503) offers a huge wrap-around front porch and a side loading 3-car garage. The great room features a cozy fireplace and is open to the kitchen.

The handy laundry room boats a shower and toilet.

Three more bedrooms are located in the back corner of the house. Upstairs, an enormous game room can be used in a variety of ways.

Four more bedrooms and two bathrooms reside on the right side of the layout. Other highlights we love: the mudroom, office space, three-car garage, and large rear porch with outdoor kitchen and fireplace.
