This Wheat Ridge, CO home desperately needed a siding replacement, and the homeowners saw an opportunity to create the modern farmhouse of their dreams.

This home in Wheat Ridge, CO was in desperate need of some TLC. The old siding was aged and warped, and the design of the exterior was dated. In a somewhat rural setting, the homeowners had a vision for a modern day farmhouse. Using a board and batten siding profile with James Hardie fiber cement siding in Arctic White they were able to achieve the dream house of their goals, which is perfectly inviting among their acreage and trees.

James Hardie fiber cement siding is the most versatile siding product for any style of home. Comprised of cement and cellulose fibers, fiber cement siding planks can be pressed into any shape. The homeowners chose to feature the board and batten elements on the front of their home for a perfectly farmhouse look, finishing off other portions with a more traditional lap siding in the same Arctic White. This maintains a cohesive look but adds some texture and variety, while also cutting costs with fewer materials used.

James Hardie fiber cement siding in Arctic White is the perfect farmhouse color when contrasted with black design features.
