About this plan

A slender 28-foot-4-inch width gives this 1,260-square-foot single-story residence a distinctive narrow footprint, extending 69 feet in depth to accommodate three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The 43-square-foot covered front porch marks the entry, while the rear-load two-car garage keeps vehicle access toward the back of the property.

From the foyer, the open floor plan leads into a great room connected to the kitchen and formal dining room. An eating bar provides a transition between the kitchen and living area, while the fireplace creates a focal point within the great room. The first-floor master suite includes a private bath and walk-in closet, and main-floor laundry keeps household service functions on the primary level.

The rear-load garage preserves the front-facing composition and provides parking for two vehicles. Slab or crawl-space foundations support the compact footprint, with 2x4 wall framing and stick roof framing defining the construction system. The covered front porch provides a sheltered outdoor threshold. 👉 View floor plans, photos, and pricing to get started today.

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.
