3-Bedroom Elevated Coastal Cottage Plan
1,430 SQ. FT. | 3 BED | 2.5 BATH | 1-STORY LIVING | 2-CAR DRIVE-UNDER CARPORT
The Magnolia Beach Hut is the ultimate elevated coastal cottage house plan — compact, charming, and designed for the beach lifestyle from the ground up. A sweeping 30’ x 8’ front porch sets the tone before you even step inside, while a vaulted shared living space and rear grilling deck keep the indoor-outdoor flow effortless.
The primary suite features a walk-in closet and a luxurious bath, while two additional bedrooms and a half bath round out the main living level. Below, a ground-level open rec room and a 2-car drive-under carport provide flexible bonus space for beach gear, games, or guests.
30’ x 8’ Front Porch: A generous, full-width front porch creates the quintessential coastal welcome — perfect for rocking chairs, morning coffee, and watching the world go by.
Vaulted Shared Living Space: Soaring vaulted ceilings over the open living area create an airy, expansive atmosphere that feels far larger than the footprint.
Rear Grilling Deck: A dedicated rear deck with grill access extends the living space outdoors for casual entertaining and al fresco dining.
Primary Suite with Luxurious Bath: The master retreat features a walk-in closet and a well-appointed bath — a true luxury experience in a compact coastal package.
Ground-Level Open Rec Room: A flexible open rec room at ground level is perfect for beach gear storage, a game room, or casual overflow entertaining space.
Elevated Piling & Pier Foundation: Built for coastal resilience — elevated above flood zones with a secure drive-under garage below.
