Are you tired of going up and down the stairs? It’s not just “people of a certain age” who feel this way. We’ve had many homebuyers who simply prefer living all on one level. With so many lifestyle changes in recent years, Kettler Forlines Homes has refined The Bradley I floor plan. Now you can discover true luxury in a single-level home in Montgomery County.

You can customize this exclusive Kettler Forlines Homes luxury ranch design to create a home from 3,530 to 4,510 square feet, including a fully finished basement. The Bradley I also gives you options for up to 5 bedrooms and 4 baths. We’re currently offering this exclusive home design at Foxwood Crossing, our luxury community of only 5 homes with large yards in Poolesville, MD.

Look at the lifestyle opportunities  this beautiful new home design offers. And see what choosing Kettler Forlines Homes from the home builders in Montgomery County, MD, adds to your choice.

Create your curb appeal

To begin with, we give you choices for styling the exterior of The Bradley I, making it uniquely your own. Choose stone, shingle, board and batten, brick, and other types of siding, including an eye-pleasing combination. Add gables and a bay window. Maybe you’d prefer a side-loaded garage so the doors aren’t visible from the front. This plan features a 3-car garage and you have the option of choosing it to be side-loaded. And, of course, you decide on the colors of your exterior, trim, and front door!

Your selections all come together, and The Bradley I transforms into a home like no other.

A single level with limitless potential

When you decide on a single-level floor plan, you need the interior layout to make sense, to avoid long trips from one area to another, like from the owner’s suite to the kitchen.

Kettler Forlines Homes designed The Bradley I to reflect the way you want to live in your luxury ranch. Flexibility is a main feature. 

Step inside from the front porch to an open foyer, with a flex room on one side. Maybe you want to use it as a home office, a den, library, exercise room, hobby studio, or even another bedroom. There’s already a closet in this room so no matter what you choose, you have storage.

On the opposite side of the foyer, The Bradley I has 2 large bedrooms that share a full bath (with a linen closet). These rooms are set off from the foyer by a small vestibule to add privacy.

The main living area of this open floor plan demonstrates the way that Kettler Forlines Homes envisions luxury living. The massive family room presents so many ways to place your furniture. With so much space, you can create nooks, like a reading corner or homework station, while still having plenty of room for gathering together. With the fireplace and option for built-ins, as well as the adjacent outdoor living space, the view is calming from anywhere in the room.

If you want a pocket office, you’ll have one tucked in the back of the home for privacy. The cozy space right next to the kitchen is ideal for multitasking, like organizing your family’s schedule, paying bills, or working on home projects. It also works great as a homework area so your kids are  close by in an area where they can focus on their studies while you’re prepping the family dinner.

The gourmet experience at home

The chef’s kitchen in this single-level floor plan showcases our love of creative and productive culinary spaces. Quartz countertops and custom wood cabinetry can be personalized in your choice of colors, plus door styles and hardware for the cabinets. Pullouts and drawers are already factored in because they make so much sense in a kitchen. We include a gas cooktop, dual wall ovens, built-in microwave, stainless steel hood, tile backsplash and oversized island with sink and dishwasher. 

The walk-in pantry is essential to an organized kitchen, and you’ll love that ours is finished with wooden shelves, not wire racks. We can extend the pantry to incorporate a service pantry, with cabinets, shelving, sink, dishwasher, and mini-fridge. The service pantry adds a workstation that allows you to remove clutter from your kitchen and keep items like small appliances easily accessible but out of the way.

What more do you want in your kitchen? A pot filler faucet? Smart appliances? We’re here to make your kitchen perfect for you.

The dining room sits just beyond the kitchen. Full-sized windows wrapped around the room fill it with natural light. 

Behind the kitchen, we’ve positioned a large laundry room with space for a folding station, utility sink, and more. How about a pet washing station?

The owner’s suite you deserve

When you need a retreat, the owner’s suite in The Bradley I is your oasis in this luxury ranch home. Full-sized windows stream a flood of natural light into the large bedroom. And imagine the coziness of having a fireplace in your bedroom. Add built-ins on either side for your private library and a place to display and store the things that bring you comfort—family photos, heirlooms, travel mementos.

We understand that sharing closet space can sometimes be a challenge, so this floor plan features dual, separate walk-in closets. Like the kitchen pantry, these closets are finished with wood shelving.

You have so many ways to create your dream bathroom with The Bradley I’s  options. Maybe you want an oversized shower outfitted with shower heads and sprays. Or you want to add a soaking or freestanding tub. Is a private water closet part of your plan? We can configure your bathroom in various ways to provide the comfort and privacy you want.

Add a finished basement

A ranch style home keeps all of your living needs on one level. But that doesn’t mean you can’t expand for extras.

When you choose the finished basement for The Bradley I, you’ll no longer recognize it as a “basement”.  It’s well lit, beautifully finished, and as open and welcoming as the main level. Use your home’s footprint to create spaces for entertaining, relaxing, exercising, enjoying your favorite hobby, or even a resting place for guests and other family members. Design the finished basement with a large rec room, complete with wet bar. There’s still room for another suite, office, workout room, media room, and a second laundry room—a perfect complement for the lower level suite.

And, as you’d expect for a basement, you’ll also have great storage spaces.

Kettler Forlines Homes is one of the few home builders in Montgomery County, MD, that can build on your lot if you already have property. We’re also developing a small community of luxury homes in Montgomery County where the Bradley I would fit perfectly on a large lot. Foxwood Crossing in Poolesville spans 13 acres but will feature a total of just 5 homes. Three lots remain, so you can choose your home to be situated on 2.12 acres, 2.51 acres or 2.75 acres. No matter which Foxwood Crossing homesite, your new home will have a large yard that backs up to wooded conservation  land.

We’ve completed one home—a 2-story,  7-bedroom estate home on 3.2 acres at 17225 Tom Fox Avenue. Another luxury home is nearing completion and will be move-in ready soon. The 7-bedroom residence at 17221 Tom Fox Avenue sits on 2.29 acres.
