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…
  • Working with a narrow lot under 50 feet wide — the design is just 40 feet across
  • Want a master suite on the main floor with bedrooms upstairs for privacy (first-floor primary suite, two secondary bedrooms on second story)
  • Need a compact vertical design that maximizes volume without sprawl (1,424 sq ft across two stories)
  • Appreciate covered entry and outdoor spaces (175 sq ft covered front porch plus 21 sq ft side porch)
  • Value walk-in pantry and first-floor laundry for daily convenience (dedicated laundry room and walk-in pantry on main level)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need all bedrooms on one level — two of the three bedrooms are upstairs
  • Prefer a single-story layout without stairs (two-story design with upper-level sleeping quarters)
  • Want a wider lot footprint — this plan requires only 40 feet of width and fits tight sites
  • Need 4+ bedrooms — this plan has 3 total

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Vertical Living on a Narrow Lot

The Vestra 4-B is a 1,424 square-foot two-story house plan designed for compact lots, measuring just 40 feet wide and 33 feet 4 inches deep. This Cape Cod and Craftsman-inspired home uses a steep 12:12 roof pitch and a maximum height of 23 feet 11 inches to maximize interior volume while maintaining a narrow footprint. The vertical profile creates a distinctive silhouette while keeping exterior maintenance and lot coverage minimal.

The first floor offers 973 square feet, anchored by a central keeping room that links the kitchen and formal dining area. A split-bedroom configuration places the primary suite on the main level with a private bath and walk-in closet, ensuring the owners remain separated from guest and family bedrooms. A dedicated laundry room and walk-in pantry support efficient daily circulation. The 8-foot ceilings maintain a comfortable scale for everyday use.

Upstairs, two secondary bedrooms and a shared full bathroom occupy 451 square feet, creating a quiet retreat away from the main living zones. Exterior features include 175 square feet of covered front porch and an additional 21 square feet of side porch, totaling 196 square feet of outdoor transitions. With two full bathrooms and one half-bath supporting three bedrooms, this plan is well-suited for downsizers or first-time builders working with land constraints.

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.
