Project Details
The Fleshmans came to Southeastern Custom Homes with a clear vision: a custom modern farmhouse on their wooded homesite in Bunnlevel, North Carolina. We worked side-by-side with them through design, material selection, and construction to deliver a home tailored to how their family actually lives. The result is a warm, light-filled custom modern farmhouse in Harnett County — every detail considered, every finish hand-picked, and every square foot earned.

What We Built
From first sketch to final walk-through — a custom modern farmhouse built to last in Bunnlevel, North Carolina.
Design & Planning
It started with the family, not a stock floorplan.
Met with the Fleshmans to understand their lifestyle, daily routines, and long-term vision for life on their wooded Bunnlevel homesite
Custom floorplan designed around how they actually live — open flow between kitchen, dining, and great room, a dedicated mudroom drop zone, and bedrooms zoned for privacy
Site-specific layout to maximize natural light, mature tree views, and front-porch curb appeal across the wooded lot
Materials, finishes, and color palette curated together — white board-and-batten siding, black window trim, warm interior wood tones — for a cohesive modern farmhouse look from exterior to interior
Build & Craftsmanship
Quality at every stage, with the owners in the loop.
Foundation, framing, and envelope built to exceed North Carolina code with upgraded sheathing, full house wrap, and premium synthetic underlayment
Color-matched architectural shingle roof installed for long-term durability and clean curb appeal against the white siding
Interior trim, cabinetry, and millwork crafted on-site with attention to fit, finish, and the small details that make a custom home feel custom
High-performance windows, doors, and insulation tuned for the North Carolina climate — comfortable year-round and energy-efficient by design
Owners walked the home at every major milestone — framing, drywall, finish — with clear updates and no surprises at the end
DESIGN & CRAFTSMANSHIP
Classic farmhouse silhouette with crisp white board-and-batten siding paired with a dark architectural roof for a timeless, high-contrast curb appeal
Wide covered front porch and clean gable lines designed to feel welcoming from the driveway and frame the home against the surrounding pines
Attached two-car garage tucked seamlessly into the elevation so it complements the home's lines instead of competing with them
Thoughtful site placement on the wooded lot to maximize natural light, privacy, and views from the main living areas
Architectural details — exposed beams, custom window trim, and a statement entry door — selected to give the home personality without overwhelming the simple farmhouse aesthetic
WHAT SETS THIS HOME APART
A true custom build — every choice tailored to how the Fleshmans actually live, not pulled from a stock plan.
Designed around the family's day-to-day routine, with an open-concept main living area that flows naturally between kitchen, dining, and great room
Premium finishes throughout: color-matched architectural shingles, durable siding, energy-efficient windows, and high-quality interior selections built to last
Functional layout decisions like a dedicated mudroom entry from the garage, generous storage, and a well-zoned floor plan for privacy between bedrooms and shared spaces
Built to perform in the North Carolina climate — proper flashing, ventilation, and a weather-tight envelope so the home stays comfortable year-round
Hands-on collaboration with the owners from foundation to final walkthrough — every detail signed off by them, not assumed by us
THE FINISHED HOME
A move-in ready custom farmhouse the Fleshmans can grow into for years to come.
Polished, cohesive curb appeal — the kind of home that turns heads coming up the drive
Bright, comfortable interiors that match the family's vision and feel like home from day one
Quality construction backed by a builder who stands behind the work long after handoff
Delivered on schedule with clear communication every step of the way — no surprises, no drama, just a finished home built right
