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 on a narrow lot under 40 feet wide—the 38-foot width accommodates most challenging sites
  • Want a fireplace as the focal point of your family gathering space (keeping room with fireplace)
  • Need a work-from-home setup without sacrificing living space (first-floor home office)
  • Want flexible bonus space beyond the main bedrooms (130 sq ft bonus room on the second floor)
  • Need a second-floor laundry to reduce travel time between bedrooms and chores (second-floor laundry room)
  • Seeking substantial storage without a basement (215 sq ft attic storage plus walk-in pantry)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need 4+ bedrooms on the main floor—only 3 finished bedrooms upstairs plus the bonus room
  • Want a master suite on the main floor—the primary suite is upstairs
  • Require a single-story, no-stairs layout—this is a two-story design
  • Need 3+ parking spaces—only a 2-car garage is included
  • Prefer a sprawling footprint—the 42-foot depth keeps the home compact and narrow

About this plan

Traditional Two-Story Home on a Compact Footprint

This country-style home delivers 1,649 square feet across a 38-foot-wide lot, making it ideal for narrow to modest residential plots. The 807-square-foot main floor features a covered front porch entry, formal dining room, and open keeping room centered around a fireplace. A kitchen with walk-in pantry and dedicated home office complete the first level, which benefits from 9-foot ceiling heights for enhanced natural light and spaciousness.

The second floor spans 842 square feet and houses the primary suite with full bath, walk-in closet, and laundry access. Three additional bedrooms rest upstairs, and a 130-square-foot bonus room provides flexible space for media, hobbies, or guest use. Attic storage totals 215 square feet, offering substantial organizational capacity. A 2-car front-load garage and slab foundation keep the footprint efficient at 42 feet in depth.

Built with an 8:12 roof pitch and reaching 27 feet 9 inches in height, the home balances visual appeal with practical proportions. Second-floor ceilings reach 8 feet, providing comfortable volume in bedrooms while the home remains well-suited to smaller lots.

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.
