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 under 60 ft wide (53 ft width)
  • Building on a sloped site that can leverage a walkout basement design
  • Want to maximize usable square footage on a smaller lot (2,482 sq ft total with basement)
  • Need a single-story layout with no stairs to bedrooms (one-story ranch)
  • Seeking outdoor entertaining space (covered front porch and rear patio)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need a basement-free design — this plan is built around a finished walkout basement foundation
  • Prefer a larger garage or workshop space (2-car side-load garage with 672 sq ft)
  • Want a main-floor laundry separate from the garage (laundry access is via garage)
  • Looking for multiple bedrooms — only 1 bedroom in this design

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Modern Single-Story with Walkout Basement

This contemporary house plan combines 1,243 sq ft of main-level living with a finished 1,239 sq ft walkout basement, totaling 2,482 sq ft of usable space. Designed for a narrow 53 ft wide lot, the single-story layout centers on an open-concept great room with 9-foot ceilings and a fireplace, flowing seamlessly into a kitchen with an eating bar and walk-in pantry.

The main floor features a first-floor master suite with a sitting area, walk-in closet, and private bath. A side-load 2-car garage preserves the front facade while providing garage laundry access. The walkout basement includes a 957 sq ft deck and maintains 9-foot ceilings, creating a flexible media or guest area that maximizes the sloped site.

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.
