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…
  • Plan to age in place—primary suite with sitting area and bath on main floor; laundry and mudroom nearby
  • Want a main-floor owner's retreat—master suite with sitting area and double-vanity bath
  • Have a large family or entertain frequently (4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, 3,278 sq ft with open main floor)
  • Need a home office on the main level, separate from bedrooms (first-floor office)
  • Work with larger suburban lots—78 feet wide by 68 feet deep
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need all bedrooms on one floor—only the primary suite is on the main floor; 3 bedrooms are upstairs
  • Work with a narrow lot under 78 feet—this plan requires at least 78 feet of width
  • Prefer a single-story layout—this is a two-story plan with secondary bedrooms upstairs
  • Seeking a compact footprint to keep build costs down (3,278 sq ft across two floors)
  • Need 5+ bedrooms—the plan has 4 bedrooms total

About this plan

Primary Suite with Sitting Area and Main-Floor Office

This Traditional colonial plan delivers 3,278 square feet across two stories with 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and 1 half bath. Requiring a 78-foot-wide, 68-foot-deep lot, the design accommodates larger suburban parcels while maintaining classical European proportions.

The first floor encompasses 2,398 square feet organized around an open-concept great room with fireplace as the focal point. The primary suite anchors one wing with a private sitting area, double-vanity master bath, and walk-in closet—all on the main floor. The kitchen features a central island and walk-in pantry with sightlines through the dining area. A first-floor laundry room, mudroom, home office, and side-load 3-car garage (1,066 sq ft) complete the main level, with 168 square feet of covered front porch and rear patio extending outdoor access.

The second floor provides 880 square feet for three additional bedrooms and flexible space, with 8-foot ceilings clearly delineating private quarters from the 9-foot main-floor volume. The 986-square-foot unfinished basement offers storage and future expansion.

  • First-floor primary suite with sitting area and private bath for master comfort
  • 3,278 sq ft on two floors with 4 bedrooms for growing families
  • Main-floor home office, laundry, and mudroom for organized daily operations
  • Kitchen island and walk-in pantry for efficient meal prep
  • 9-foot main-floor ceilings enhance the great room and entertaining zones

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.
