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 small or narrow lot — the 56-foot by 55-foot footprint is one of the most compact available
  • Want a guest cottage or vacation home — the efficient 1,300 sq ft plan is designed for secondary properties
  • Need maximum kitchen functionality in a small space — walk-in pantry, butler's pantry, and island serve a high-capacity culinary core
  • Prefer minimal maintenance — slab foundation and 1,300 sq ft keep ongoing costs low
  • Enjoy outdoor living without square footage — 717 sq ft of covered and open porches extend the usable space
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need multiple bedrooms for a growing family — this plan has only 2 bedrooms in 1,300 sq ft
  • Want a garage — no garage is included in this design
  • Have a large lot and want to build a spacious primary residence — 1,300 sq ft is intentionally modest
  • Require finished basement or expandable footprint — slab foundation with no below-grade potential

About this plan

Compact Cottage with Efficient Kitchen & Outdoor Porches

Rock Hill Guest House is a single-story cottage spanning 1,300 square feet, designed for a tight 56-foot by 55-foot building footprint on a slab foundation. The interior centers on a 10-foot ceiling height in the primary living zone, where a keeping room with fireplace and vaulted ceilings anchors the open-concept core. The kitchen features a large island, dedicated walk-in pantry, and butler's pantry—an exceptionally generous kitchen assembly for a home of this size.

The plan includes 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, with clear separation between private quarters and communal space. A 177 square foot covered front porch and 540 square foot rear porch provide 717 square feet of total outdoor coverage, effectively extending the home's usable living space. The modern farmhouse aesthetic combines efficient design with distinctive character, making this plan ideal for guest cottages, vacation homes, or primary residences on modest lots.

  • 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths in 1,300 sq ft
  • Large kitchen with island, walk-in pantry, and butler's pantry
  • Vaulted ceilings and 10-foot heights in keeping room

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.
