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 with a narrow lot — the design is just 50 feet 3 inches wide
  • Love covered outdoor living — 821 square feet of combined front and rear porches
  • Want a compact, efficient footprint (1,638 square feet on a single story)
  • Need a first-floor master suite with minimal stairs (split-bedroom layout)
  • Prefer a cozy gathering space — kitchen island and fireplace as the home's anchor
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need 4+ bedrooms for a large family — this plan has 3 bedrooms
  • Want a spacious home — 1,638 square feet is a modest footprint
  • Require a garage — this plan does not include one
  • Prefer a deep lot — the design is 52 feet 7 inches deep, limiting expansion

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Barndo 2 is a 1,638 sq ft single-story residence designed to maximize footprint efficiency on a 50'3" wide by 52'7" deep lot. This New American-inspired ranch plan integrates a total of 821 sq ft of porch space, including a 419 sq ft front porch and a 402 sq ft rear porch, facilitating significant indoor-outdoor transitions. The structural design features a maximum building height of 20'2" and utilizes a combination of 5:12 and 9:12 roof pitches to define its exterior profile.

The interior layout centers on an open-concept core, where the kitchen island serves as the primary anchor for the living space. A fireplace is positioned to provide thermal efficiency and a focal point within the main living area. The floor plan utilizes a split-bedroom configuration, effectively separating the primary suite from the secondary bedrooms to enhance acoustic privacy. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and is situated on the first floor to provide direct access to the central living zones.

Technical specifications include a consistent 9-foot ceiling height throughout the first floor, which promotes a uniform sense of volume across the 1,638 sq ft of heated living area. The inclusion of a dedicated first-floor laundry room streamlines household logistics, while the proximity of the kitchen to both the front and rear porches allows for natural light penetration and cross-ventilation. The structure is engineered for a compact footprint, making it a viable option for narrower residential lots.

Key Features: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, first-floor master suite, split-bedroom layout, kitchen island, fireplace, 821 sq ft total porch area, walk-in closet, first-floor laundry, 9-foot ceiling heights, 5:12 and 9:12 roof pitch.

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.
