Located in Arlington, Virginia and recently built by Classic Cottages; a luxury custom home builder based in the DMV, this Craftsman Farmhouse home is the crown jewel of the charming neighborhood of Lyon Park.
This revised design is a spin off from the builder’s popular Amelia Model that was a fan favorite over the years (and for good reason). With open-concept living in mind, the new Tybee Model excels at maintaining function in every room of the house. Within each space, there is traditional family intent whether it be dining, entertaining, cooking, socializing, working, etc. This model checks all the boxes and appeals to home buyers who prefer a more transitional look with a subtle farmhouse flair, particularly a large front porch!
The home features window and door casing, wainscoting, and crown molding throughout — a homage to its craftsmanship roots. Nine-foot ceilings make the home feel lighter, brighter, and bigger than one would assume from the outside looking in. Each of Classic Cottages’ homes is unique unto itself, regardless of whether the architectural layout is based on a model plan. This originality is expressed through the gorgeous design finishes throughout the home chosen by Classic Cottages talented in-house designers. Take a look for yourself!

“With a farmhouse design in mind, we modernized the look of a traditional farmhouse by painting the exterior white and contrasting the light, bright exterior with black cladded windows, metal roof, and light fixtures. With slightly upward topography, this home has a few steps going up to the large front porch. Neutral stone details add an additional warm gradient to the façade.” – Classic Cottages

“Listed as a speculative home upon completion, it was important to keep secondary bathroom color palettes neutral to appeal to more buyers and stick to the status quo: less is more. The number one design element to come outdated first is TILE. So keeping tile neutral and sticking with a few different, yet common tile patterns was essential. Large scale tile as primary floor tile is more durable and easier to clean. The large-scale also makes small spaces appear larger. The smooth carrara marble countertops are durable and add an extra touch of luxury with the natural veiling, adding color and interest in smaller spaces where it matters most.”
