A stunning rustic farmhouse has been designed by Swan Architecture, located in the rural countryside of Minneapolis, Minnesota. The property involves a master-planned estate, which encompasses the main residence, a horse stable, barn, pastures, prairies, and ancillary structures. This two-story home is in perfect harmony with its surroundings, which offers verdant landscaping and a mature growth forest at the back of the property.

The residence itself offers its inhabitants the perfect atmosphere to chill out after spending an enduring day on the ranch. The interior spaces provides sweeping views over the surrounding countryside, a double-sided wood burning fireplace and plenty of nooks and crannies. This impressive property was also featured in the communities “Dream Parade of Homes 2015”.

The exterior of the property features a beautiful stone walkway, leading from the garage all the way around the side of the home. The exterior facade showcases stone wrapped around the bottom portion of the farmhouse, while wood siding provides a gorgeous visual contrast. This rustic beauty fits perfectly in its natural environment.

What We Love: This rustic farmhouse offers lovely details such as wood beamed ceilings, wood flooring and an eye-catching stone fireplace in the living room. Large expanses of windows helps to illuminate the interior spaces with natural light. This also enables the homes inhabitants to enjoy the beautiful surrounding landscape… readers, what do you think, could you visualize yourself and your family living here?
