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 to avoid stairs and stay on one level — single-story ranch layout with all bedrooms and living areas on the main floor
  • Need a first-floor master suite for aging in place or convenience (master bedroom, laundry, and living all main floor)
  • Love outdoor entertaining with multiple outdoor spaces (covered front porch, rear deck, patio areas)
  • Want a chef kitchen with serious storage and meal prep (kitchen island, eating bar, walk-in pantry)
  • Plan to host extended family or need flexible spaces (3 bedrooms, 2 baths, formal dining room)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need a compact footprint to minimize build costs — this plan spans 58 feet wide by 54 feet deep at 1,700 square feet
  • Have a narrow lot under 50 feet — the design requires at least 50 feet of width
  • Want minimal outdoor maintenance — multiple outdoor features (porch, deck, patio) require regular upkeep

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Main Floor Living with First-Floor Master Suite

This traditional house plan delivers 1,700 square feet of comfortable living space on a single story. The open floor plan centers around a spacious keeping and family room with fireplace, flowing seamlessly into a gourmet kitchen featuring a large island, eating bar, and walk-in pantry. A formal dining room provides elegant space for special occasions, while the breakfast area offers casual daily dining.

The first-floor master suite is a standout feature, complete with a private bath, double vanity, and walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms and a second full bathroom round out the layout. Practical touches include first-floor laundry, extensive storage, and 9-foot ceilings that enhance the sense of openness throughout.

Outdoor living extends the home's appeal with a covered front porch, rear deck, and 756 square feet of total outdoor and utility space. The attached two-car garage provides convenient parking and storage. Built on a crawl space foundation, the home measures 58 feet wide by 44 feet 5 inches deep and works well on a variety of lot sizes.

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.
