FreeCAD does have an architectural workbench. It’s free software, download it and give it a try, worst case scenario you decide “this sucks” and you buy Bricscad.
I haven’t used it for that extensively, but it has different “workbenches” for different purposes and I’ve of those is archipack for architecture. If you give it a shot let me know how it goes since I do need to plan out some home reno work myself.
The Arch workbench is now the BIM workbench. And you need quite a lot of tutorials and patience to work everything out. But after a few hours/days/weeks of frustration it feels like it’s worth it, because you actually own your data.
Don’t hesitate to ask/search in the FreeCAD-Forum, they are very helpful.
Will this be suitable to do 2D architecture stuff? I was about to buy Bricscad, how does this compare?
Many Youtube tutorials:
