Introducing The Hawthorne, a striking custom farmhouse-inspired residence offering approximately 2,818 square feet under air and over 3,400 total under roof, designed with timeless architectural character, warm natural finishes, and the kind of functional luxury today’s buyers crave. Inside, the plan delivers an intentional blend of openness and comfort, featuring 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, expansive vaulted living spaces, formal dining, a spacious chef-inspired kitchen with oversized island, pantry, gas range, private owner’s retreat, oversized 2-car garage, and a finished upper-level flex suite ideal for guests, media space, home office, or multi-generational living.
