Build this home and you'll own an heirloom in the making. Stately and refined on the outside, it's beautifully appointed and family friendly on the inside. The colonial-style home features a trio of dormers, multi-pane windows with shutters, and a covered front porch, bounded by columns. The unobtrusive two-car garage opens to the side.

The floor plan is thoroughly modern with spacious rooms and vaulted ceilings in the foyer, great room, and dining nook. Traditionally styled columns define the open public rooms, aligned along a central corridor. Windows on all the perimeter walls flood the house with sunlight. French doors in the great room and nook offer access to the back yard. There's storage galore: Built-in shelves in the study, a media center beside the fireplace in the great room, a closet beneath the staircase, cabinetry in the laundry room, and two accessible attic spaces.

The gracious home features four bedrooms, including the master suite on the main level. The suite is replete with amenities, including his-and-her closets, a whirlpool tub, and a walk-in shower with two showerheads. Three large bedrooms and a compartmentalized bath are on the top level. This level also houses a bonus room, which can be furnished as a home office, a guest bedroom, a hobby room, or playroom.
