Plan 22659R is a 4-bedroom coastal house plan rising four stories on an elevated design, with lap siding on the walls and a gable roof punctuated by dormers. Spread over 2215 ft², this single-family home pairs relaxed beach style with classic American proportions. The roof ridge runs parallel to the street, which gives the front a calm, balanced silhouette, and the footprint measures 39'0" wide and 37'0" deep.
The main living level follows an open floor plan built around a center kitchen. A large island with a breakfast bar faces the family room, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation, and a breakfast nook offers a second, more casual place for morning coffee. A walk-in pantry keeps groceries and small appliances out of sight. The large family room is anchored by a fireplace, making this a house plan with fireplace warmth for cool evenings after a day outdoors. The open concept lets each space flow easily into the next and out toward the porches.
The master suite sits on the main floor and includes a walk-in closet, so daily life can stay on one level. The other bedrooms are clustered together, which keeps children or guests close to one another and away from the noise of the living area. The home has 2 full bathrooms and 1 half bathroom. Laundry on the main floor saves trips up and down the stairs, and a mudroom catches sandy shoes, wet towels and beach bags before they reach the rest of the house.
Outside, this 4 story house plan is designed for an active coastal life. The drive-under garage holds four cars in a tandem layout with a front entry, leaving room for boats, bikes and gear beneath the living levels. A covered front porch welcomes visitors, while a screened porch, a lanai, a balcony and a patio offer shade, breeze and open sky at different times of day. The plan has no basement; the foundation is built as shown in the drawings, and it is also available on request with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement foundation. The exterior walls are framed as shown, with 2×6 exterior walls available as an option.
