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…
  • Looking to generate rental income while living in one unit (two complete, separate residences with independent layouts)
  • Need accessible, stair-free living for retirees or those with mobility considerations (entire layout on single floor, first-floor master suite in each unit)
  • Working with a modest lot width—each unit fits efficiently (design is 66 feet wide)
  • Want multi-generational flexibility without a traditional in-law suite (two fully independent 2-bed, 2-bath homes)
  • Seeking to maximize bathroom convenience (4 full bathrooms across both units, 2 per residence)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need a large, open, unified floor plan—this is two separate residential units designed for privacy
  • Want a garage for vehicle storage (no garage bays included in the plan)
  • Require finished above-ground storage or additional square footage (each unit is approximately 1,000 sq ft)
  • Looking for a single-family home rather than a duplex investment or multi-occupancy structure
  • Need a master suite on the upper floor or prefer two-story living (both master suites are on the main floor)

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Two Single-Story Residences, One Thoughtful Design

This classic traditional duplex plan offers a practical housing solution ideal for multi-generational living, rental income, or owner-occupants seeking flexibility. Each of the two units spans approximately 1,035 to 1,036 sq ft on a single level, with 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a private owner's suite featuring a walk-in closet and ensuite bath. The entire structure measures 66 feet wide by 40 feet 8 inches deep, creating a balanced, attractive exterior with brick veneer and siding finished at traditional residential scale.

Both units share an open-concept floor plan that connects the kitchen, dining, and family room, maximizing natural light and creating bright, spacious interiors. Each residence opens to a welcoming 32 sq ft covered front porch and private 29 sq ft rear stoop, extending outdoor living while preserving privacy between households. First-floor laundry in each unit adds modern convenience, and 8-foot ceilings throughout contribute to comfortable room proportions. Built on a crawl space foundation with 2x4 framing, the duplex combines timeless charm with accessible single-story living—ideal for retirees, downsizers, or investors seeking long-term value and adaptability.

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.
