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…
  • Have a large family or frequently host extended family (5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms)
  • Work from home and need a dedicated office (home office on the main floor)
  • Entertain frequently with outdoor space (covered front porch, covered rear porch, 592 sq ft rear patio)
  • Need substantial garage and storage for vehicles and equipment (1,056 sq ft 3-car front-load garage)
  • Want a premium kitchen for serious cooking (island, walk-in pantry, clear sightlines to great room)
  • Plan to age in place — master suite and laundry on the main floor with full-height 9-foot ceilings
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need a compact footprint to keep build costs down (3,843 sq ft across two floors is a substantial home)
  • Want a single-story layout — this is a two-story plan with stairs to bedrooms
  • Have a narrow lot under 70 feet — this design requires 88 feet of width
  • Prefer a simple, minimalist design — this plan includes substantial square footage and multiple zones

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Grand Two-Story Living with Home Office and Premium Garage

This Craftsman home plan spans 3,843 square feet across two stories, featuring a dramatic two-story grand room with 9-foot first-floor ceilings. The 88-foot width and 63-foot depth provide an authoritative footprint suitable for larger lots. The main level encompasses 2,322 square feet, anchored by the soaring great room, a chef kitchen with island and walk-in pantry, and a first-floor primary suite for immediate accessibility.

A dedicated home office and mud room support modern family operations, while first-floor laundry manages household efficiency. Upstairs, 929 square feet house secondary bedrooms and a full bathroom. A 592 square foot bonus room provides separation for a media retreat or guest suite beyond the five finished bedrooms. The 1,056 square foot front-load 3-car garage offers substantial vehicle and storage capacity, and a 592 square foot rear patio extends living to the outdoors.

Structural integrity relies on 2x6 framing and truss construction, with 8:12 and 10:12 roof pitches reaching 27 ft 6 in height. Covered front and rear porches facilitate indoor-outdoor transitions, while ceiling heights of 9 feet on the first floor and 8 feet upstairs maintain comfortable proportions throughout.

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.
