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 urban lot under 40 feet wide — engineered for 20-foot widths (narrow 20-foot lot width)
  • Want a master suite with dual vanity sinks and walk-in closet (master bath with double vanity)
  • Need 3 bedrooms without a sprawling footprint (3 bedrooms in 1,575 sq ft)
  • Seeking unfinished basement space for future recreation or storage (unfinished basement with 9-foot ceilings)
  • Love farmhouse style with vertical presence (12:12 roof pitch, covered front porch, 25-foot height)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need a main-floor master suite — the master is on the second floor only
  • Want all bedrooms finished and ready on move-in — 2 of 3 bedrooms are upstairs in a secondary zone
  • Prefer single-story living — this is a two-story vertical design
  • Dislike unfinished basements or need minimal basement space — plan includes a full unfinished basement

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Modern Farmhouse for Tight Urban Lots

This narrow farmhouse plan spans 1,575 square feet across two stories and is engineered for infill sites with a 20-foot width and 48-foot depth. The exterior is defined by a steep 12:12 roof pitch and a covered front porch, creating a classic vertical silhouette with a 25-foot building height that maximizes potential on constrained lots.

The main level occupies 787 square feet, centering on an open-concept core where the kitchen, breakfast area, and family room share an uninterrupted floor plate. A central kitchen island with integrated eating bar serves as the hub, complemented by a dedicated wall pantry. A fireplace anchors the family room, while a powder room and laundry area maintain household utility. The 9-foot main-floor ceiling enhances light and volume.

The second floor occupies 788 square feet and serves as the private zone with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The master suite features a walk-in closet and private bathroom with dual vanity sinks, while two secondary bedrooms share a full bathroom. The 8-foot upper-floor ceiling creates a more intimate scale. An unfinished basement with 9-foot ceilings provides flexibility for storage or future recreation space.

  • 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms on a 1,575 sq ft footprint
  • Designed for narrow 20-foot-wide infill lots
  • Open-concept main floor with kitchen island and fireplace
  • Master suite with walk-in closet and dual vanity sink
  • Unfinished basement with 9-foot ceilings
  • Covered front porch and steep 12:12 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.
