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…
  • Want a statement-making entrance with porte-cochère and courtyard garage (signature architectural feature)
  • Frequently entertain guests — two-story foyer and dual kitchen islands serve high-energy social gatherings
  • Working with a wide lot over 110 ft (requires substantial frontage for this design)
  • Need a first-floor master suite with luxury bath and makeup area (spacious retreat on main level)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need more than 4 bedrooms (four bedrooms total across two floors)
  • Want a low-profile, understated European home (castle-style facade and porte-cochère are bold architectural statements)
  • Prefer a compact footprint (3,300+ sq ft across two stories)
  • Have a narrow or standard lot under 110 ft (this plan requires wide lot width)

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Grand Porte-Cochère & European Estate

The Lady Rose is a 3,302 sq ft European castle-style home that makes an immediate impact with its signature porte-cochère and dramatic two-story foyer. This four-bedroom, four-bath estate spans two stories on a wide lot and includes a side-load courtyard garage, ideal for formal arrivals and high-end entertaining.

The interior features a designer gourmet kitchen with two islands anchoring the great room and family room, with large windows above the sink framing backyard views. The first-floor master retreat provides a private escape with an enormous walk-in closet and makeup vanity, while three additional upstairs bedroom suites each offer private baths and walk-in closets. A Juliette balcony overlooks the social hub below. Built on a full basement foundation with expansion potential above the garage, the plan delivers luxury finishes, sophisticated flow, and room for growth.

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.
