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…
  • Work with a sloping or hillside lot (walkout basement foundation ideal for varied terrain)
  • Want future expansion potential without building extra space now (unfinished basement allows a third bedroom later)
  • Prefer a compact heated footprint while maximizing outdoor living (1,679 sq ft plus 657-sq-ft deck)
  • Desire a master suite on the main floor with his-and-hers closets (first-floor master with dual walk-in closets)
  • Appreciate landscape connection from multiple levels (walkout basement with main-floor deck access)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need finished bedroom space on day one (third bedroom is unfinished in the basement)
  • Require more than two-car garage capacity (this plan has no garage)
  • Want a large footprint across a level lot (50–59 ft wide, designed for sloping terrain)
  • Prefer a traditional slab or crawl space foundation (walkout basement only)

About this plan

Modern Mountain Home with Walkout Basement and Expandable Space

Designed for sloping homesites, the Wayside I House Plan combines 1,679 square feet of heated living with an unfinished walkout basement that expands the home's total footprint. A 657-square-foot deck extends the main level toward the landscape, while the basement foundation provides substantial room for future expansion, making this contemporary design especially practical for mountain or waterfront lots.

Vaulted ceilings define the open floor plan, where the great room flows directly into a kitchen with a central island, eating bar, and walk-in pantry. The first-floor master suite features separate his-and-hers walk-in closets and a double-vanity bath, while an additional bedroom is positioned across the home for privacy. The unfinished basement can accommodate a third bedroom as needs change, adding flexibility without overbuilding from day one.

Built with 2x6 wall framing and stick-built roof framing on a walkout basement foundation, this modern mountain home pairs practical construction with landscape connection. Covered front and rear porches, along with the expansive deck, create multiple outdoor destinations, while the mud room and first-floor laundry support daily convenience.

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.
