See this rehabbed modern Minnesota farmhouse with amazing design ideas

Rehkamp Larson Architects together with Lifespace Construction has transformed this modern farmhouse, situated on an old farmstead in Lake Elmo, Minnesota. The renovation aimed to provide modern, comfortable living spaces while celebrating the surrounding rural views. Inspired by a vintage white barn, the exterior facade features an attractive material palette.

The dwelling combines traditional gable forms with contemporary elements like a corner window highlighting the steel staircase. A classic wraparound porch offers shelter to the living room, surrounded by extensive glass walls. A covered walkway connects the house to a three-season porch and frames a courtyard around the existing swimming pool. This design seamlessly integrates the kitchen with the outdoor space, ideal for both intimate gatherings and entertaining larger groups.

Unexpected pops of color and materials can be found throughout this renovated modern farmhouse. This includes polished concrete floors mixed with timber headers and whitewashed wood wallboards. Hints of red complement white oak and fresh blue cabinetry in the kitchen.

Reclaimed wood collected from around the property was incorporated into the fireplace mantel and barn doors. An old metal Butler grain bin door was repurposed in the refinished basement. Living spaces are defined but open, enabling long views through the house that frame the surrounding pond, outbuildings, and fields.
