Is this the right plan for you?

Most regret comes from buying a plan that doesn't fit your life. Skim this before you decide.

Great fit if you…
  • Building a rental duplex or income property—two separate residential units with independent access (3,078 sq ft total)
  • Working with a narrow lot under 50 feet wide and deep—this design fits on a 48-by-42-foot footprint
  • Need loft space for flexibility—loft is featured on the second floor
  • Prefer convenience on upper floors—second-floor laundry and master suites (no carrying laundry downstairs)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need a single-family home—this is a duplex with two separate units
  • Want all bedrooms on one floor—bedrooms are split between levels, with primary suites on the second floor
  • Have a lot over 60 feet in any direction—this compact plan fits within 48-by-42 feet

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Compact Two-Story Duplex with Loft and Second-Floor Laundry

This two-story Craftsman duplex plan spans 3,078 square feet of heated living area, fitting neatly on a compact 48-by-42-foot lot. Designed for multi-family or multi-generational living, the duplex combines a 1,376-square-foot first floor with a 1,702-square-foot second floor, providing efficient separation between private and shared spaces.

The main level centers on an open-concept living area with a kitchen island that connects culinary and social zones. Each unit benefits from first-floor functionality, while the second floor houses the primary suites, a loft space, and dedicated laundry facilities. The primary suites are positioned upstairs to maximize privacy and create clear separation from daytime living areas. A 134-square-foot covered front porch provides a welcoming entry point for both residents.

The structure reaches 28 feet 4 inches tall with roof pitches of 6:12 and 10:12, and is anchored by 9-foot first-floor ceilings and 8-foot second-floor ceilings. A 2-car garage providing 452 square feet offers vehicle and storage capacity while allowing each unit to maintain independent access. The design includes 4 full bathrooms and a cluster bedroom layout, making it well-suited for rental income or shared-property living arrangements.

We compared three plan sources and Archival's pricing + free design call won us over. Our builder said the construction docs were the cleanest he'd seen.
