Plan 92700R is a 3-bedroom coastal house plan rising over four stories, with 1704 ft² of living space beneath a gable roof accented by dormers. Shaped by Beach and American influences, this elevated single-family home is finished in siding, and its roof ridge runs parallel to the street for a calm, balanced front elevation. The footprint measures 31'0" wide and 51'0" deep, so the house grows upward rather than outward and gives each level its own clear purpose.
The living areas follow an open floor plan that joins a large family room with a large kitchen set toward the rear of the house. A central island and a breakfast bar give space for quick meals and easy conversation while dinner is under way, and a breakfast nook offers a quieter corner for the first coffee of the day. With the kitchen at the back, the family room stays the natural gathering place for weekends, games and long evenings together, and the open concept lets the cook stay part of every conversation.
Three bedrooms and two full bathrooms are arranged in a split bedroom layout, which keeps the owners' retreat apart from the secondary rooms. The master suite occupies the second floor and includes a walk-in closet. Laundry on the main floor keeps everyday chores close to the kitchen and living spaces, and a dedicated home office gives a quiet place for work or study, which makes this 3 bedroom house plan practical for a busy family.
Outdoor living is generous. A wraparound porch and a covered front porch frame the entry, while a deck, a patio and a lanai add more places to dine, read or simply rest in the open air. The drive-under, front-entry garage holds two cars beneath the living levels. The house stands on the foundation as shown in the plans, without a basement, and it is also available on request with a crawl space, a slab, a monolithic slab, a stem wall or a basement. The exterior walls are framed as shown, with 2×6 exterior walls offered as an option. This elevated house plan with a 2-car garage turns 1704 ft² into a comfortable home for every season of the year.
