Plan 55440R is a 6-bedroom coastal house plan that rises four stories, offering 6098 ft² of living space beneath a hip roof, with siding wrapping the exterior walls. Elevated in the beach tradition and shaped by classic American design, this single-family home measures 40'0" wide and 57'6" deep. It is a tall, gracious house that makes the most of every level, and an elevator links the floors so everyone in the family can move between them with ease.
The reverse living layout places the main gathering spaces above the bedrooms, where daylight is at its most generous. An open floor plan joins the large family room to a large kitchen set at the front and center of the home, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. The kitchen is built for real family life: a generous island anchors the work zone, a breakfast bar seats a quick lunch or homework session, and a breakfast nook gives slow weekend mornings a place of their own.
Six bedrooms, three full baths and one half bath give a large household room to spread out. The bedrooms combine a split and a clustered arrangement: the second floor master stands apart for privacy, while the secondary bedrooms are grouped together, two of them sharing a Jack & Jill bath. A walk-in closet, a quiet sitting area and a second floor laundry keep daily routines close at hand. A home office supports remote work, a dedicated entry welcomes guests, and storage space keeps beach gear and seasonal items out of sight.
Outside, this 4 story house plan is layered with places to enjoy fresh air: a covered front porch, stacked porches on the upper levels, a balcony and a rooftop deck for evenings under the open sky. The drive-under garage holds four cars in a tandem, front entry configuration, tucked neatly beneath the living floors. The foundation is built as shown on the plans; a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement foundation is also available on request, and 2×6 exterior walls can be specified as an option.
