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…
  • Have a large or growing family that needs 4 bedrooms (four bedrooms plus 4 full baths)
  • Frequently host extended family or gatherings (formal dining room, great room, and front, rear, and side porches)
  • Need upstairs laundry to avoid carrying loads between floors (second-floor laundry room)
  • Want a master suite on the upper level for privacy from guest or secondary bedrooms (second-floor owner's suite)
  • Working with a narrow lot — the design footprint is only 40 to 49 ft wide despite 2,968 sq ft of living space
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need single-level living — this is a two-story plan with stairs to bedrooms
  • Want to minimize stairs and main-floor spaces (all three secondary bedrooms are upstairs)
  • Prefer a compact footprint to keep build costs down (2,968 sq ft across two floors is substantial)

This plan tends to appeal to:

JoAnne and the entire staff was extremely helpful and patient with us while we decided between 2 homes. Outstanding curb appeal and a great layout perfect for us.

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.
