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 single-story layout with no stairs (one-story design with accessible main-floor living)
  • Need accessible features for aging in place (first-floor primary suite, laundry room, and mudroom on main floor)
  • Working with a wide lot at least 86 feet across (85 ft 6 in wide footprint)
  • Prefer open-concept living with clear sightlines (kitchen island overlooking great room with fireplace)
  • Want generous covered outdoor space for entertaining (covered front and rear porches totaling 481 sq ft covered area)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Working with a narrow lot under 80 feet wide (this design needs 85 ft 6 in of lot width)
  • Need 5 or more bedrooms (plan has 4 bedrooms)
  • Want a compact footprint to minimize construction costs (2,396 sq ft with 85 ft 6 in width)

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Single-Story Open-Concept Living

This one-story home plan delivers 2,396 square feet of heated living space within an 85-foot 6-inch wide footprint, making it ideal for wider lots. The layout features 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and 1 half bathroom, arranged to maximize horizontal circulation. A covered front porch and covered back porch (481 sq ft) provide outdoor transitions, while the open-concept interior centers on a fireplace and great room with kitchen island and walk-in pantry.

Ten-foot ceilings enhance the sense of openness across the main living zones. A keeping room provides a distinct casual gathering space separate from the formal areas. The primary suite occupies the main floor with direct access to the living core, while a first-floor laundry room and mudroom support daily household function. A 2-car side-load garage maintains curb appeal without compromising the front elevation.

Structural elements include an 8:12 to 10:12 roof pitch and a maximum building height of 24 feet 3 inches, reflecting a traditional residential aesthetic that fits most neighborhood contexts.

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.
