This elegant Georgian-style house plan blends timeless architectural symmetry with a highly functional modern layout, offering a total of 3,476 square feet of heated living space plus an expansive daylight basement designed for recreation, storage, and flexible living. A traditional brick exterior, balanced rooflines, and gracious covered porches establish classic curb appeal while welcoming visitors with enduring sophistication.
The main level spans 2,056 square feet and is thoughtfully arranged for both everyday living and formal entertaining. A covered front porch leads into a well-defined entry that opens to formal living spaces, including a dedicated dining room ideal for hosting gatherings and celebrations. The great room anchors the heart of the home with a fireplace and generous windows, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere while maintaining visual connections to outdoor living areas.
The kitchen is centrally positioned and designed for efficiency and connection, featuring an eating bar and direct access to adjacent gathering spaces. This layout supports effortless entertaining and comfortable daily routines. Nearby, the first-floor primary suite provides privacy and convenience, complete with a well-appointed bath offering a double vanity and a private bathing area. Split bedroom placement ensures quiet separation from secondary sleeping spaces, enhancing comfort for homeowners and guests alike.
Outdoor living is a defining feature of this design. Multiple covered and open-air spaces—including a deck, patio, and screened porch or sunroom—extend the home’s living areas outward, creating seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor environments. These spaces are ideal for seasonal entertaining, quiet relaxation, or enjoying views of the surrounding landscape.
The daylight basement significantly expands the home’s versatility and appeal. Designed for both function and fun, this lower level includes a guest suite accompanied by a dedicated bunk room—perfect for accommodating extended family, overnight visitors, or group stays. A spacious recreation room and play room provide ample space for games, media, and leisure activities, while a basement kitchenette enhances convenience for entertaining or independent living arrangements.
Adding to the basement’s practicality is a dedicated boat storage area, making this plan especially attractive for lake or waterfront settings. Whether used for recreational equipment, workshop needs, or seasonal storage, this feature adds exceptional value and flexibility. Utility and storage areas are thoughtfully incorporated to keep the home organized without sacrificing living space.
The 3-car garage enhances everyday functionality with both front and rear access, including a drive-under configuration that integrates seamlessly with the daylight basement design. A porte cochere further elevates the home’s classic Georgian character while offering covered convenience for arrivals and departures.
With five bedrooms, three and a half baths, generous porches, and a highly adaptable daylight basement, this Georgian house plan delivers timeless style paired with modern livability. It is an ideal solution for homeowners seeking traditional architecture, expansive entertaining spaces, and a home designed to evolve with changing lifestyle needs.

All house plans sold by Archival Designs have been designed to comply with the International Residential Code (IRC) and to the local codes in the area where the designer resides or where the house was built.
All house plans are designed to meet or exceed the national building standards required by the International Residential Code (IRC). Due to differences in climate and geography throughout North America, every city, local municipality and county has unique building codes and regulations that must be followed to obtain a building permit. Prior to purchasing a set of house plans, we recommend that you meet with your local building officials in order to determine the building requirements for your area. It is the responsibility of the purchaser(s) and/or builder to ensure that the structure is constructed to meet the codes of their local area.
Important Note:
House plans do not come stamped or signed by an architect or engineer. Additionally, house plans typically will not include structural engineering notes/calculations. Please check with your local building officials to determine if a stamp is required. If required, the building department will only accept a stamp from a licensed professional in the state where the home will be built.
Depending on your city, county, and state building requirements, house plans may need to be reviewed by a local licensed architect or engineer for structural details and code standards before construction begins. This is particularly true in coastal areas and those facing seismic events, extreme winds, and heavy snow. If you are building in any of these areas, a licensed structural engineer will likely be needed to provide the necessary calculations and additional drawings. We authorize the use of our plans conditioned on your obligation and agreement to strictly comply with all local building codes, ordinances, regulations, and requirements, including permits and inspections at the time of and during construction. We recommend checking with your local building department for the most current requirements. The purchaser(s) and/or builder are responsible for additional expenses incurred through meeting municipality requirements or other requirements for construction.
Our foundation plans have been designed for universal conditions and may need to be adjusted to fit your specific site conditions. The foundation should be modified by a local structural engineer to comply with soil testing laboratory findings and local building requirements.
Our house plans will include schematic electrical drawings; however, circuiting or wire sizing will not be included. Your electrical subcontractor will typically provide these drawings.
HVAC and plumbing drawings are not included. Your mechanical and plumbing subcontractors will determine the best layout for your site. Local HVAC codes, climatic requirements and commonly used systems vary throughout the country. The direction of how water flow will enter the home vary from case to case. For this reason, it is impossible to provide universal plans.
