This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 58990R is a 3-bedroom coastal house plan with four stories, an elevated profile and 4005 ft² of living space shaped by Beach and American influences. A gable roof with its ridge perpendicular to the street crowns the narrow facade, finished in siding, and the house measures 36'5" wide and 53'2" deep. With 3 full bathrooms, 2 half bathrooms and a built-in elevator, this 4 story house plan lets a family use every floor with ease, from the first grocery run to the last trip upstairs at night.
The heart of the home is an open floor plan that joins a large family room to a large center kitchen. A fireplace anchors the family room, so the seating area has a natural focus on cool evenings. The kitchen is built for real cooking and casual gatherings at once: an island gives generous prep space, a breakfast bar seats quick meals and homework sessions, and a breakfast nook offers a quieter spot for morning coffee. A walk-in pantry keeps supplies out of sight and the counters clear.
The second floor master suite includes a walk-in closet, and the laundry on the same level means clothes go from the bedrooms to the washer without carrying baskets up and down the stairs. An in-law suite gives visiting parents or older children their own private quarters, while a bonus/flex room adapts to a home office, playroom or media space as the family's needs change. A utility room and dedicated storage handle the practical side of a house this size.
Outside, stacked porches bring covered front and rear porches to more than one level, joined by a lanai and a balcony for fresh air and long views. The front entry drive-under garage holds two cars beneath the living floors, a smart arrangement for an elevated home. The house is built on the foundation as shown, without a basement; it is also available with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement foundation, and with 2×6 exterior walls on request.
