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 ranch with all 4 bedrooms and 3 baths accessible on one level)
  • Need a 2-car garage for multiple vehicles (528 sq ft courtyard-entry garage)
  • Prefer aging in place — master suite, laundry, and living all on the main floor
  • Working from home and need a dedicated office (home office included on the main floor)
  • Love hosting and entertaining — open kitchen island, keeping room, formal dining, and 108 sq ft rear porch
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Working with a narrow lot under 50 feet — this design needs 62 feet of width
  • Want a compact footprint to minimize build costs (2,352 sq ft across one story)
  • Prefer a narrow depth — the design extends 73 feet 8 inches
  • Need a single-car garage — this plan includes a 2-car garage as the primary storage

About this plan

One-Story with Open Layout and Courtyard Garage

This spacious one-story home delivers 2,352 square feet of accessible living across a 62-foot width and 73-foot 8-inch depth. The 8:12 roof pitch and 23-foot 6-inch maximum height establish classic proportions while maintaining efficient single-level circulation throughout.

The interior revolves around an open-concept kitchen island positioned as a hub within the great room, with clear sightlines to the adjacent keeping room and formal dining area. A walk-in pantry supports kitchen utility, while a mudroom and dedicated laundry area manage entry and household workflow. A home office provides quiet space for remote work, separated from the active living zones.

The split-bedroom layout positions the first-floor primary suite away from three secondary bedrooms, maximizing acoustic privacy within the 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom floor plan. Covered porches — 24 square feet at the front and 108 square feet at the rear — extend outdoor entertaining and transition space. The 2-car courtyard-entry garage (528 sq ft) is positioned to preserve the home's front elevation while providing practical vehicle storage.

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.
