Plan 13197R is a 5-bedroom coastal house plan rising four stories, with 3026 ft² of living space, a hip roof and siding on the exterior walls. This elevated single-family home blends coastal and American character and measures 51'4" wide and 55'8" deep. Its reverse living layout places the everyday rooms on an upper level, where the views open up, while four full bathrooms and a half bath serve the household and guests.
The open floor plan joins the family room, the dining area and the kitchen into one continuous space, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. A fireplace in the family room anchors the seating area and gives the living floor a natural gathering point on cool evenings. The rear kitchen is built for real use: an island with a breakfast bar for quick meals and homework, a breakfast nook for slower mornings, and a walk-in pantry that keeps supplies out of sight and the counters clear.
The master suite sits on the main living floor, so the owners have their bedroom a few steps from the kitchen and family room. The remaining bedrooms are clustered together, keeping children's or guest rooms close to one another and to their bathrooms. With four full baths there is no morning queue, and the half bath lets visitors freshen up without passing through private areas. Laundry on the main floor saves carrying baskets between levels, and a dedicated entry gives everyone a place to leave coats, shoes and bags on the way in.
Outside, stacked porches extend the living space onto several levels, joined by a balcony and a covered front porch that shelters the arrival. The house is designed on the foundation as shown in the drawings, and it is also available with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement foundation on request. The walls are framed as shown, with 2×6 exterior walls offered as an option. For a family looking for a 4 story house plan with fireplace, generous outdoor space and a bright upper living floor, this 5-bedroom coastal house plan makes every level count.
