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…
  • Working remotely and need a dedicated home office separate from living spaces (home office/study integrated into floor plan)
  • Prefer a single-level layout with no stairs to navigate (one-story design)
  • Want a main-floor master suite for accessibility (first-floor primary suite with private bath)
  • Have a moderate lot size or prefer a compact footprint (40 ft wide by 70 ft 8 in. deep)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need 4+ bedrooms — this plan has 3 bedrooms total
  • Want multiple outdoor entertaining spaces — the plan includes only a rear deck and covered front porch
  • Require a large kitchen with a walk-in pantry — this design has a kitchen island but no walk-in pantry listed

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Single-Story Home with Home Office and Master Suite

This Craftsman cottage house plan spans 1,886 square feet on a single level, designed to fit efficiently on moderate lot sizes with a 40-foot width and 70-foot 8-inch depth. The open-concept core integrates the kitchen, dining area, and keeping room around a central island, with 9-foot ceilings that enhance perceived volume throughout the main living spaces.

Privacy is managed through a split-bedroom layout that separates the primary suite from two secondary bedrooms. The first-floor master suite includes a private bathroom, while a dedicated home office or study provides a quiet area for remote work, distinct from the main living zones. Practical circulation flows through a mud room connecting the 481-square-foot 2-car garage to the interior.

  • Covered front porch entry with 56-square-foot rear deck for outdoor access
  • First-floor laundry for daily convenience
  • 2x6 exterior wall framing for structural durability

What's included in this plan
  • Exterior elevations (all sides)
  • Detailed floor plan(s) with dimensions
  • Foundation plan
  • Roof plan
  • Schematic electrical layout
  • Building cross-sections

  • Architectural / engineering stamps
  • Site & grading plan

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.
