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…
  • Need a guest house or rental unit with full independence (1,196 sq ft with kitchen, master suite, and bathroom)
  • Want a three-car garage for vehicles or workshop space (3-car garage with 1,042 sq ft base)
  • Working with a narrow lot — the design is just 43 feet 9 inches wide
  • Need a home office with separation from living areas (dedicated office on upper level)
  • Plan to age in place with single-level living (all living space on one floor above garage)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need multiple bedrooms for a family — this plan has only 1 bedroom
  • Want a large primary home footprint (1,196 sq ft total, with garage occupying most of the base)
  • Prefer a single-story layout — this is a two-story carriage house
  • Need more than one full bathroom (1 full bath and 1 half bath)

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Freeman Garage 2 is a versatile carriage house plan offering 1,196 square feet of total heated living area, designed to maximize utility on a 43-foot 9-inch wide footprint. This two-story accessory dwelling unit provides a structured solution for property owners seeking multi-use space, featuring a 1,042 square foot garage base that accommodates three vehicles or a dedicated workshop area.

The upper level spans 1,052 square feet and centers on an open-concept living core. This floor includes a kitchen equipped with island seating that maintains sightlines into the adjacent keeping room. A dedicated home office provides a quiet environment for remote work, while the primary suite offers a private layout with an attached full bathroom, walk-in closet, and convenient second-floor laundry facilities.

Construction specifications utilize a slab foundation and 2x4 wall framing to ensure structural efficiency. The roof assembly incorporates both 12:12 and 8:12 roof pitches, contributing to an overall maximum building height of 27 feet 10 inches. The 9-foot ceiling height on the first floor and 8-foot ceiling height on the second floor establish clear vertical separation between the utility and residential zones.

With a depth of 28 feet, this design integrates effectively into various lot configurations, functioning as a guest house, rental unit, or standalone studio. The combination of high-capacity parking and a fully contained living level allows for flexible property development without sacrificing architectural character or material durability.

Key Features: carriage house plan, 3-car garage, 1,196 sq ft living area, second-floor master suite, home office, kitchen island, keeping room, slab foundation, 12:12 and 8:12 roof pitch, accessory dwelling unit.

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.
