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…
  • Love covered outdoor living with front and rear porches totaling 987 square feet
  • Need flexible space for growth — bonus room above garage plus loft framed for future use
  • Want a two-story layout with separate work and recreation zones (home office and loft on upper floor)
  • Working with a wide lot — the design spans 88 feet 6 inches in width
  • Require multiple bathrooms for a growing household (4 full baths and 1 half bath)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need a single-story, no-stairs layout — this is a two-story design
  • Want a compact footprint to minimize building costs (2,859 sq ft across two floors)
  • Need a narrow lot under 60 feet — this plan requires 88 feet 6 inches of width
  • Prefer minimal exterior living — covered porches total 987 square feet here

About this plan

Farmhouse Design with Flexible Loft & Bonus Space

This two-story farmhouse house plan spans 2,859 square feet and features a wide 88-foot-6-inch footprint that prioritizes exterior living. Board and batten siding and a 12:12 roof pitch create a distinctive vertical profile, reaching 26 feet 10 inches at maximum height.

The main floor occupies 1,928 square feet with 10-foot ceilings throughout the vaulted family room and dining areas. Three bedrooms and four full bathrooms provide private quarters, while a keeping room adjacent to the kitchen creates a central social hub. Front and rear covered porches totaling 987 square feet extend the living experience outdoors.

The second floor features 931 square feet with an integrated home office, recreation room, and flexible loft area. A 414-square-foot unheated bonus room above the garage offers room for expansion or specialized storage. The 817-square-foot two-car garage maintains the home's practical 51-foot-6-inch depth.

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.
