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…
  • Want a main-floor master suite for accessibility while keeping secondary bedrooms upstairs (primary suite on first floor, three bedrooms on second)
  • Need a flexible office or study space without sacrificing bedroom count (loft area on second floor serves as home office/study)
  • Appreciate dramatic vertical space and high ceilings in main living areas (two-story great room with 9-foot ceilings on main level)
  • Value covered outdoor living on both front and rear of home (covered front and back porches, 152 sq ft total)
  • Want future expansion potential (unfinished basement for additional finished space)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need a single-story layout with no stairs (two-story design with bedrooms on second floor)
  • Want all bedrooms on the same floor as the master suite (three secondary bedrooms are upstairs, master is on main level)
  • Require a 3-car or larger garage (2-car front-load garage with 480 sq ft)
  • Have a lot under 50 feet wide (design requires 54 feet of width)

About this plan

Two-Story Craftsman with Two-Story Grand Room

This Craftsman home provides 2,196 square feet across two stories, built on a compact 54-by-47-foot footprint. The main level spans 1,497 square feet and features a dramatic two-story great room that creates direct sightlines and natural light throughout the central living zone. The kitchen includes a walk-in pantry and breakfast area, flowing into a formal dining room. The primary suite is positioned on the main floor for first-floor access, and 9-foot ceilings enhance the sense of scale within the primary social zones.

The second floor occupies 699 square feet and houses three secondary bedrooms that share a full bathroom. A central loft area serves as a flexible home office or study space, maintaining separation from main-floor activity. An unfinished basement offers expansion potential for future finished space or storage. The home includes 152 square feet of covered porch area across front and rear, and a 2-car front-load garage (480 sq ft).

JoAnne and the entire staff was extremely helpful and patient with us while we decided between 2 homes. Outstanding curb appeal and a great layout perfect for us.

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.
