Are you looking to be inspired by some gorgeous modern farmhouse exteriors? Me too! They are pretty much eye candy if you ask me!
If you are you getting ready to build your own farmhouse charmer, or are looking to update your home with some farmhouse style you are going to love this lineup below.
And between you and me, if you’re simply wanting to zone out on some gorgeous architecture…I like you even more! 😉
Whatever the reason, I’m glad you’re here. 🙂
I’ve put this collection together because we are mid renovation on an old two story (with cottage flair) and turning it into our modern farmhouse dream home.
I’m gathering design ideas here, and hoping to glean some direction from these modern farmhouse stunners.
As always, you can click on the picture or in text link to access the original images and websites.
Let’s get to it!
#1) Willow Homes Farmhouse Exterior
I love the front porch on the farmhouse exterior as featured on Home Bunch. If you’re looking for inspiration beyond the exterior, the inside of the farmhouse will not disappoint!
Farmhouse design elements in this exterior are:
- Dark Roof
- White Siding, White Trim
- Wood Beam Porch and Doors
Absolutely stunning!
#2) Show stopping Modern Farmhouse
I found this awesome modern farmhouse exterior from The Fancy Farmhouse Instagram.
Marg and Liz have a ton of stylish designs that you can check out at their blog Fancy Farmhouse.
Note worthy farmhouse exterior design elements are:
- Dark Roof
- White Plank Siding
- White Windows & Trim
- Black Shutters
- Brown Stone Chimney
- Covered Front Porch
#3) Modern Farmhouse Exterior With Side Garage
This lovely farmhouse from houseplans.net is doing everything right.
I think the gorgeous set of rich brown garage doors and the cozy covered porch are key. The black window grids and dark roof really set off the design.
Noteworthy farmhouse design elements include:
- White Siding
- Multicolor Dark Grey Roof
- Covered Porch
- Rich Brown Garage Doors Doors
#4) Stone & Shake Shingle Farmhouse Exterior
Light earth tone stone color and a complementing roof color really pull this farmhouse together! I love the white column beams near the entry. The shake shingle inspired roof helps give extra texture and appeal.
Farmhouse design elements worth nothing are:
- Light Grey Exterior With White Gable Accents
- White Columns and Covered Porch
- Light colored natural stone
- Coordinating light colored shake roof
#5) Old Charm Modern Farmhouse
I’m not sure why, but this one may be one of my favorites in the bunch. Maybe it’s the garage doors! I’m also loving the grey weathered shake shingle roof next to the grey tin roof over the covered porch.
Design elements worth nothing are:
- White Exterior
- Black Windows
- Natural Wood Doors
- Stacked ledge stone & cobblestone
- Shake Shingle & Tin Roof Combo
It’s a great idea to mix your roof textures in farmhouse design. Consider shingles with coordinating tin awnings. So pretty!

I love it when people make something new and make it feel old. Old homes give me the feels, and this farmhouse design did a great job of pulling in some of those elements into a new build.
Noteworthy design elements include:
- White plank siding
- Dark Roof
- Covered Porch With Columns, Extra Overhang, & Angled Beams
- Natural Wood Trellis Above Garage Door

#9) Modern Farmhouse With Flair By Stephanie Gamble Interiors
I love it when someone takes a classic style, and completely makes it their own. Stephanie Gamble Interiors does just that with this drool worthy modern farmhouse and eye catching red door. Large windows spanning the covered porch are simply stunning.
Design elements worth considering are:
- White Plank Siding
- Dark Tin Roof
- Double Doors In A Bright Accent Color (I’m thinking turquoise would look awesome too!)
- Black windows with white trim
#10) Country Living Farmhouse Charmer
Last but certainly not least is this farmhouse exterior designed by Lauren Crouch. It is featured on Country Living as one of the ‘pretties farmhouses they’ve ever seen.’ You won’t believe the style and design elements on the interior, they are fabulous.
I love the eclectic collection of vintage front porch furniture, what a perfect way to instantly give a modern farmhouse old world appeal.
Some design elements worth noting:
