This design doesn't have an open concept living space like the other homes from Yankee Barn Homes, since the living room is part of the main entrance and then the kitchen and dining area are off to one side. The kitchen is a beautiful space surrounded by windows making the room bright and open.

The dining area is close by with a large table to gather around and french doors leading out to the deck. The generous sized oven and stove combo would be the best place to make family meals, and there is also a dishwasher and a wine fridge as well as a large sink with a window above it. Through the kitchen, there's also a mudroom which is the perfect place to store shoes and coats as well as other outdoor items.
