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 a rental property or investment—duplex format supports consistent rental income (two units, 2,554 total sq ft)
  • Multi-generational living arrangements—each unit operates independently with full kitchens and bathrooms (4 full, 2 half baths)
  • Appreciate second-floor laundry to avoid basement trips (laundry room on upper level, second floor master suite)
  • Want open-concept living with modern finishes (kitchen island, walk-in pantry, 9-foot main-level ceilings)
  • Working with a compact lot—this design fits efficiently (44 ft wide, 38 ft deep)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need a single-family home—this is a two-unit duplex designed for dual occupancy
  • Want a large garage—only 2 cars total (434 sq ft garage)
  • Prefer all bedrooms on the main floor—bedrooms are on the second floor only
  • Seeking a one-story layout—this is a two-story design

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Two-Unit Modern Duplex for Investment or Multi-Generational Living

This contemporary duplex totals 2,554 square feet across two stories, designed to maximize rental income or support multi-generational households. The efficient 44-foot-wide by 38-foot-deep footprint keeps land costs down while delivering balanced square footage to each unit.

Each unit's main level features 1,124 square feet centered on an open-concept kitchen, dining, and family room with a central island and walk-in pantry. Nine-foot ceilings amplify the sense of space on the ground floor. The second floor includes 1,430 square feet of private space, with a conveniently located laundry room to keep household chores on the upper level. Eight-foot ceiling heights maintain comfort throughout the bedrooms and secondary spaces.

The duplex provides 4 full bathrooms and 2 half bathrooms total, ensuring sufficient facilities for occupants. A 2-car garage (434 sq ft) offers off-street parking, while the low-profile 3:12 roof pitch and 25-foot 3-inch maximum height integrate seamlessly into residential neighborhoods.

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.
