Coastal Beach House Plan with Elevated Design, Shingle Detailing & Expansive Outdoor Living

This three-story coastal beach house plan blends timeless seaside architecture with modern comforts, offering 4,159 heated sq. ft., five bedrooms, five baths, and an elevated piling foundation built for waterfront resilience. Designed to maximize views, natural light, and outdoor living, this plan is perfect for oceanfront, canal-front, and intracoastal properties.

Timeless Coastal Architecture

The exterior showcases a harmonious mix of fiber-cement siding and shingle accents, paired with wide porches and upper-level balconies that frame the surrounding scenery. Clean white trim, arched porch openings, and multiple covered decks reinforce the classic coastal aesthetic while enhancing durability against salt air and moisture. Elevated on pilings, the home achieves both beauty and essential flood protection.

Open-Concept Living with Waterfront Views

Step inside to a bright, open-concept layout where expansive windows and sliding doors make the most of natural light and outdoor connections. The main living area offers seamless flow between the great room, dining area, and chef-inspired kitchen—an ideal arrangement for entertaining, hosting family gatherings, or enjoying everyday coastal living. Vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and optional fireplace elements provide architectural charm and warmth.

Gourmet Kitchen & Entertaining Features

The kitchen serves as the heart of the home, complete with an oversized island, walk-in pantry, and customizable cabinetry. Whether preparing meals for a crowd or enjoying casual breakfasts, the layout supports effortless functionality. The open great room transitions naturally to covered decks, allowing indoor-outdoor living that suits any season.

Luxurious Bedroom Suites

This coastal plan includes five bedrooms—two of which function as full Owner’s Suites. The main-level suite is perfect for aging in place or accommodating guests, while the upper-level suite offers a private balcony with sweeping views. Each bedroom is generously sized and positioned to welcome abundant daylight, providing restful retreats for everyone in the household.

Five Baths & Thoughtful Convenience

With five full baths and an additional powder room, the home is designed for comfort and privacy. The baths can be upgraded to feature walk-in showers, spa tubs, dual vanities, and coastal-friendly finishes. Thoughtful circulation ensures that guests, children, and multi-generational families can move easily between floors and private spaces.

Elevator Access Across All Floors

An elevator connects each level, offering convenience for homeowners of all ages. Whether transporting groceries from the garage or luggage to the guest suites, the elevator enhances daily usability and ensures long-term accessibility.

Outdoor Living Designed for Coastal Climates

Expansive covered porches and balconies highlight the home’s focus on outdoor enjoyment. Morning coffee on the upper balcony, sunset dinners on the main deck, or relaxed afternoons on the shaded ground-level patio—all become part of the daily rhythm of coastal life. Composite decking and durable railings withstand weather exposure, offering long-lasting performance.
