Step Inside This Charming Modern Farmhouse with the Best Details
Step inside this charming modern farmhouse by Nicola’s Home, where classic rustic charm meets sleek contemporary design. From the moment you enter, you’re greeted by warm wood accents, shiplap walls, and airy, light-filled spaces that blend comfort and style effortlessly. Every detail has been carefully curated, creating a welcoming atmosphere that feels both sophisticated and down-to-earth.
The outside of this Portland, Maine home is equally impressive as the inside. I love the mix of textures here. Most of the roof is shingled, but a section of metal roof tops the small side porch. Beautiful wood grain doors grace the garage and the entry while a brick driveway pairs with flagstone and stacked rocks.
Interior window frames are black creating a classic look on the outside of the modern farmhouse. A Japanese maple at right lends a bit of red to the landscaping.
Copper gutters and downspouts are another classic addition to this beautiful exterior.
Inside the modern farmhouse, the built-in kitchen cupboard has the most amazing wood cabinetry I’ve seen. The grain and color are fabulous. Beadboard is incorporated to add a bit more interest.
The kitchen island features the same wood finish as the cupboard while the rest of the cabinets are white and blend with the planked ceilings. Wooden beams help tie the wood and white theme together. A cozy seating area and dining table can be seen from this view of the kitchen.
The seating area enjoys the cozy glow of the fireplace that’s decorated for Halloween with black ravens.
The dining space has a wooden farmhouse table with large, wicker end chairs. A striped rug adds color underfoot.
Sliding glass and wood doors provide entry into one of the bedrooms in this charming modern farmhouse. A textured ceiling pairs with a softly-patterned wallpaper to create the backdrop for this feminine bedroom. A mix of patterns gives it a bit of an English country vibe.
Blue wallpaper is applied in a second bedroom with its unique ceiling lines and big fluffy bed. Stripes, geometrics, and flower patterns come together to create vintage appeal for dreaming.
The bathroom features a trellis-patterned wallpaper with creamy, glass front cabinetry. A free-standing vintage sink is flanked by two vanities with marble counters. A black oval mirror completes the look.
Back outside, an outdoor bar area creates a gathering space next to the lighted pool at night. This would be a great spot to end the day.
