The Henry is a truly custom home that blends traditional farmhouse charm with modern elegance. East Tennessee Contractors guided this 3,400-sq-ft build in Monterey, Tennessee, shaping a home that fits a larger family and adapts as needs change. With four bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and flexible rooms for a nursery, office, or play space, this design supports real life—busy mornings, quiet evenings, and weekends with company.
A Plan That Lives Large
Space only matters when it works. The Henry places gathering areas at the center and gives private spaces clear boundaries. The living room opens toward the kitchen so conversation flows during meals and homework time. The deep base kitchen sink and custom cabinetry make cleanup and storage easy. You get clear counters, strong work zones, and room for everyone to help without bumping elbows.
Everyday Comfort, Thoughtfully Built
Comfort shows up in small choices that add up. The large covered porch extends living space outdoors in every season. Oversized porch posts ground the façade and deliver a confident, classic look. Inside, a walk-in tiled shower and large soaking tub turn daily routines into a pause. Tile feels solid underfoot and cleans fast. The soaking tub invites a deep reset after long days.
Rooms That Adapt as Life Changes
Families change; the house should keep up. The Henry includes a nursery that can become a quiet office later, and a playroom that can convert to a guest room or an extra bedroom when needed. This flexibility protects your investment and reduces the urge to add on. With a smart layout, you gain years of usefulness from the same square footage.
Materials That Work Hard
Durability keeps a home beautiful. Tiled showers resist wear and moisture. Custom cabinetry delivers the right mix of drawers and doors, so everything has a place. The deep sink handles stock pots and sheet pans without splashing the counters. These choices reduce maintenance and keep the home fresh through busy seasons and bigger gatherings.
