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 first-floor owner's suite with private bath and main-level laundry (first-floor master suite)
  • Need flexible space for a home office or guest retreat (central loft area)
  • Working with a narrow lot under 50 ft wide (40 ft wide footprint)
  • Prefer a compact footprint to keep build costs manageable (1,840 sq ft across two stories)
  • Want a covered entry and outdoor living (covered front porch and rear patio)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need 4+ bedrooms — this plan has 3 bedrooms and a flexible loft (2 are on the second floor)
  • Want all bedrooms on the main floor — the secondary bedrooms are upstairs only
  • Have a small budget and want to minimize height — the 27 ft 7 in building height may increase site prep and foundation costs

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Craftsman Home Plan with Main-Floor Master and Flexible Loft

This Craftsman house plan delivers 1,840 sq ft of living space within a compact 40 ft wide by 50 ft deep footprint, ideal for building on smaller lots without sacrificing functionality. The two-story design centers on a main level that opens the kitchen, dining, and family room into one flowing zone, anchored by a central island and walk-in pantry.

The first floor is anchored by a private primary suite, complemented by a dedicated mud room, half bath, and laundry area. Nine-foot ceilings enhance the sense of volume throughout the social zones. Upstairs, two secondary bedrooms share a full bathroom, while a central loft provides flexible space for a study or media retreat. The 2-car garage, covered front porch, and rear patio extend the home's utility and curb appeal.

  • First-floor primary suite for independent main-level living
  • Flexible loft zone for work, study, or recreation
  • Walk-in pantry and kitchen island in open-concept kitchen
  • Narrow footprint maximizes smaller-lot placement
  • 9-foot first-floor ceilings with 2x6 exterior framing

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.
