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 or tight urban space (46 ft wide, 30 ft deep)
  • Want a first-floor master suite with bedrooms upstairs (primary suite on main level)
  • Need single-floor laundry convenience (first-floor laundry room)
  • Seeking efficient, compact square footage for affordability (1,150 sq ft total)
  • Value kitchen functionality on a small footprint (kitchen island in modest space)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need a single-level layout — this is a two-story design with bedrooms upstairs
  • Want substantial living space — 1,150 sq ft is compact
  • Require multiple bathrooms — only 2 full baths total for 3 bedrooms
  • Need a spacious lot footprint — the 30-foot depth and 46-foot width are minimal dimensions

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

The Dane Mills 35084 is a traditional two-story home delivering 1,150 square feet across a compact 46-foot width and 30-foot depth, engineered for efficient performance on smaller residential lots. The design rises to a maximum height of 24 feet with an 8:12 roof pitch, creating a low-profile exterior that fits well in established neighborhoods.

The main floor centers on a keeping room that anchors the living core, adjacent to a kitchen equipped with a central island. A primary suite is positioned on the first floor for single-level convenience, while two additional bedrooms cluster upstairs, maximizing flow and minimizing hallway waste. The floor plan features 8-foot ceiling heights, consistent proportions throughout. Practical utility is integrated via a dedicated first-floor laundry room and front stoop entry.

Structural support includes an unfinished basement, offering flexibility for future expansion or storage. The front-load 2-car garage spans 641 square feet and is optimized for standard lot configurations, ensuring the driveway remains proportional to the site. This design is engineered for efficient construction and maintenance within a compact footprint.

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.
