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 lot or working with tight width constraints (just 60-69 feet wide)
  • Need a single-story layout with no stairs and first-floor master suite (one-story ranch)
  • Want a workshop or room for vehicles and equipment (768 sq ft two-car garage with attached workshop)
  • Seeking efficient living on a modest footprint without sacrificing covered outdoor space (wraparound porch)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need 3+ bedrooms — this plan offers only 2 bedrooms total
  • Want multiple full bathrooms — there is only 1 bathroom
  • Require substantial square footage for a large family (896 sq ft total)
  • Need a main-floor laundry room separate from living areas — laundry is integrated into the central flow

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Compact Single-Level Living with Workshop Space

This barndominium house plan delivers 896 square feet of efficient, single-level living wrapped by generous covered porches. Built on a slab foundation with 12-foot ceiling heights, the Joan plan maximizes every square foot through an open floor plan that connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas into one continuous gathering space.

The layout places a first-floor master bedroom and clustered second bedroom on the same level, eliminating stairs while maintaining comfortable separation. A convenient mud room transitions from the 768-square-foot two-car garage and attached workshop, where the first-floor laundry supports daily routines. The wraparound porch expands outdoor living and complements the home's modest, practical footprint.

Durable 2x6 wall framing and truss roof construction provide lasting performance on a narrow lot. The integrated workshop and generous garage deliver ample room for vehicles, equipment, or hobby projects without sacrificing interior comfort.

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.
