50 Years of Yankee Barn Homes
Carter Beach Home
This contemporary beach home plan features 3,109 square feet of post and beam living space, 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, floor to ceiling windows to capture views and a private second floor balcony.
The exterior combines two looks in one house: a traditional farmhouse from one side and an island beach house from the other. The inset roof deck adds a Victorian look to the exterior and a sunny aerie for the master bedroom. The kitchen opens into a breakfast area with stacked windows for island views and sunshine. The layout with a private guest area and several bathrooms is appealing for rental as well as entertaining family and friends.
“We built a dream house where we have plenty of room to enjoy family and friends. It is two houses in one: a traditional farmhouse that fits right in the countryside, like it had been here a long time, and a less formal island beach house with lots of windows for views of the ocean and the island.” – Carter Beach House Owner
