Gables at varying heights and black-trimmed windows contribute to the<br />
striking look of the rear façade.<br />
Portions of the exterior are clad in white wainscot panels to complement<br />

DNJ: You call this style Modern Farmhouse. What do you consider the modern<br />
architectural elements used here and what are the farmhouse elements?<br />
M. SCRO: The modern architectural elements include shed dormers, the<br />

on a classic farmhouse, and refined, clean panels of wainscot exterior<br />
trim. The classic farmhouse elements are the steeply pitched gable rooflines,<br />
the white clapboard siding, the stone accents, and two-over-two grille<br />
patterns, both in the square and the tall/thin windows. Timeless features,<br />
