Floor Plan

This commanding Castle Home Plan was designed with French Nobility in mind. This luxury house style allows for days of old, to be reintroduced and applied to modern times and conveniences. All the while this expansive Castle Home Plan will remain forever timeless.

The luxury castle house plan is styled as a French Chateau, lying astutely across your property. It offers multiple entryways, one accompanied by a Porte Cochere, also known as a drive-through carport or shelter. This Home Plan is a complete display of trey ceilings, domes, arches and columns. This gives way to the main entry into the home and Grand Foyer. To the left, there is a staircase leading you gracefully onto the second floor.

The second entry into the Castle Home Plan is one designed to greet nobility, or individuals for a modern style ball or formal fundraiser. As one ascends the stairs you are welcomed by a roaring 12-foot fireplace complemented by two sets of open and responsive French Doors. As you enter the Grand Room, you are immediately transported to a time where opulence was given within a noble French Chateau home.

  • Lying in front of you at the opposite end of the Grand Room is five sets of French Doors
  • The Grand Room gives complete sight through the doors onto the expansive Veranda
  • The Grand Room touches you with its regal materials & full-length windows

Off the Grand Room, this Castle House Plan offers an opulent Master Suite. The Bedroom has great circular depth. The Master Suite is also complemented by a full-size Sitting Area. Just you have witnessed the most commanding Master Suite to be seen, there are rare jewels yet to be seen.

  • The Master Bedroom offers “his” and “her” own private bathrooms
  • Each Bathroom is fitted with its dressing area
  • Tubs are garnished with an open-air feel as you can see through the windows & glass above

Making your way around this ample home, the kitchen comes within sight. The kitchen is long and lofty in the home plan. It exposes a generous bar with seating for five.

  • Great flow into the Morning Breakfast Room
  • Generous cabinet space
  • State of the art
  • Access to the large pantry
  • Multiple prep areas
  • A side stairway for children and backdoor guest
  • Easy access to serving within the dining area

What an awe-inspiring view from the entry of the kitchen into the Keeping Room. This Home Plan was designed with floor to domed ceiling windows inside the Keeping Room. It has a commanding view & presence, bathing you in the sunlight from every point. This room is also adorned with an expansive Fireplace to warm your family and guest; all the while, still delighting in the feel of being outdoors.

There must be mention of such a long opulent hallway, leading into a timeless Theater, with stage included, just as the Home Plan would have had it back centuries ago. You can modernize this space by making it your entertainment area.

Optimize Theater with a pull-down projection screen for movie viewing
Build-in storage, for all media-related equipment and movies

The Chateau Castle Home Plan also displays a liberal Library. The library can double as your home office. It is a great place to use the Home Plan as it is, for a Library or format a change for an office.

  • It has a private drive and entry
  • Tucked away stairs onto the second floor

See What Our Happy Customers Are Saying

JoAnne and the entire staff was extremely helpful and patient with us while we decided between 2 homes. This home has outstanding curb appeal and a great layout perfect for us. I work from home so having the home office off the foyer is fantastic. I converted the wet bar into a storage closet for my office. We also extended the laundry room into the porch and created a multipurpose laundry/mud room. I would buy from archival designs again and again.

It took almost a year to pick a plan. Since my husband and I retired a few years ago we wanted this last house had to have everything we wanted and needed. The kitchen is my favorite part of the house. I can see what’s happening in my neighborhood through my kitchen window and watch my husband garden in the back yard. Our children think we made a smart decision when we picked this house for our senior years.

We’ve had an amazing experience with our new home and are excited to be moved in. The customer service we received during our modifications was exceptional. We are loving the open layout of the kitchen and family room. It feels spacious and I’m already planning on hosting holiday dinners at home. We recommend Archival Designs to anyone interested in building the home they’ve always wanted!

We absolutely adore the Kildare Place house plan. Made some modifications to make this home ours! Our house is the talk of the neighborhood. We host big parties every holiday and still get compliments from our friends and family. We searched for months and looked through hundreds of floor plans and this one had almost everything we wanted, and with the help of the great staff at Archival Designs we got exactly what we wanted!

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.

 

Do your plans meet building codes in my area?

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:

  • Customers building in CA, OR, SC, WA, and NV: Our house plans do not meet Earthquake Seismic/Wind code requirements.
  • Customers building in GA, SC, FL, and NC Coastal Areas: Plans may have to be engineered to meet local Hurricane/Wind codes.
  • Customers building in AL, AZ, CO, CT, DE, FL, ID, LA, KY, MD, MA, MN, MI, NV, NH, NJ, NY, OH, PA, UT, WY, and VA: Plans may have to be engineered by a local licensed professional to meet local building codes. Please call your local building department before placing order.
  • Customers building in NV: NV law permits an owner or builder to build a house from their own plans. Contact your local building department to verify if our stock house plans will be accepted before placing order. 

 

Will the plans be stamped or signed by an architect or engineer?

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.

 

Will the foundation included in the construction drawings work for my site?

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.

   

Do your plans include electrical, plumbing and mechanical drawings?

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.
