3-Story House Plan 2048 ft²: 3 Beds, 2.5 Baths, Open Floor Plan, 3-Car Garage

Plan 43809R is a 3-bedroom 4-story coastal house plan that sets a cottage-style family home on an elevated base, with 2048 ft² of living space under a gable and hip & valley roof and exterior walls finished in siding. Beach and American influences give it a relaxed yet polished character, carried by a wraparound porch and generous windows on every side. The house measures 34'6" wide and 41'0" deep and includes three bedrooms, two full bathrooms and a half bath, all within a single family home designed for year-round living.

The heart of the home is an open floor plan that brings the family room and the kitchen together in one bright, connected space. The large family room centers on a fireplace, a natural gathering point on cool evenings, while large windows and floor-to-ceiling windows pull daylight deep into the interior. The large center kitchen is built for both everyday cooking and entertaining: an island anchors the work zone, a breakfast bar seats family and guests for quick meals, and a walk-in pantry keeps supplies organized and out of sight. Beyond the living area, a lanai extends the main level outdoors for shaded meals and quiet conversation.

The master suite sits on the main floor and comes with a walk-in closet, so daily life can unfold on a single level. Split bedrooms place the two secondary bedrooms apart from the owners' retreat, giving parents and children their own privacy. Laundry on the main floor saves trips up and down, a half bath serves guests near the living spaces, and dedicated storage rooms help the house stay tidy. An elevator links all four levels, a rare convenience that makes this house plan with elevator comfortable for every generation.

Outside, a drive-under 3-car garage in a tandem layout with front entry tucks the vehicles beneath the home, and the garage with upstairs adds valuable space above. The wraparound porch joins a covered front porch and a covered side porch, offering shelter for slow mornings and plenty of room for outdoor seating. The foundation is built as shown in the drawings, and the plan is also available with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement foundation. Exterior walls are framed as shown, with 2×6 exterior walls available on request.
