Plan 34613R is a 3-bedroom, 4-story coastal house plan with 2546 ft² of living space: an elevated beach-style home with American character, a hip and valley roof and siding on the exterior walls. The house measures 34'6" wide and 58'8" deep. This narrow single-family design rises in levels from a drive-under garage, and an elevator links every floor, so the height of the house never becomes a burden for groceries, guests or growing older in place.
The plan follows a reverse living layout, which places the gathering spaces on an upper level where the large windows can take in the widest outlook. An open floor plan joins a large family room with a fireplace to a large kitchen set at the rear of the house. The island and the breakfast bar keep whoever is cooking part of the conversation. A breakfast nook gives the family an easy spot for weekday mornings, and a walk-in pantry keeps supplies organized and out of sight. For anyone looking for a house plan with fireplace and open concept living above the street, this arrangement brings the light in and keeps the family together.
The master suite sits on the main floor and includes a walk-in closet, so the owners' retreat stays private from the living level. The two other bedrooms are clustered nearby and share a Jack & Jill bath, an arrangement that works well for children or visiting family. Three full bathrooms serve the whole household. Laundry on the main floor means no hauling baskets between levels, and a dedicated home office offers a quiet place for remote work or homework.
Outside, stacked porches give the facade its unmistakable coastal profile, together with a covered front porch, a balcony and a covered rear porch. A lanai and a deck add more room for warm afternoons, shaded or in full sun. The front-entry, drive-under garage holds one car and has space upstairs. The foundation is built as shown on the plans, and the design is also available with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement. 2×6 exterior walls are offered on request.
