Palmetto Beach Hut House Plan

4-Bedroom Modern Elevated Coastal Cottage Plan

2,018 SQ. FT. | 4 BED | 3 BATH | 2-STORY | 2-CAR DRIVE-UNDER GARAGE

The Palmetto Beach Hut is the spacious successor to our top-selling Magnolia Beach Hut design. It maintains the highly efficient 30-foot footprint required for narrow coastal lots while purposefully expanding the interior volume for modern living. Structured for multi-generational families or versatile vacation hosting, the Palmetto integrates a fully independent lower-level guest suite, providing maximum flexibility without compromising the classic coastal aesthetic.

A welcoming entry leads directly into a soaring vaulted living and dining area. The indoor-outdoor flow is seamless, pushing out onto a multi-level rear deck where a striking dual-sided fireplace bridges the covered and uncovered living spaces. Below, the drive-under garage provides ample storage and leads to a private lower suite that opens directly to a ground-level patio.

Independent Lower-Level Suite: A fully functional downstairs living space featuring a bedroom, kitchen + bar, bath, and direct access to the lower patio. Perfect for guests, older children, or private rental potential.

Dual-Sided Outdoor Fireplace: A striking architectural centerpiece shared between the covered and uncovered rear decks, extending the usability of your outdoor living spaces deep into the cooler seasons.

Vaulted Shared Living Space: Soaring vaulted ceilings over the open dining and living rooms create an expansive atmosphere, flanked by a well-appointed kitchen with a large eat-in island and a walk-in pantry.

Primary Suite with Deck Access: The vaulted primary retreat features direct access to the open rear deck. The en-suite is designed for daily comfort, featuring dual sinks, a private water closet, and a large bench shower.

Direct-to-Laundry Drop: An intelligent spatial feature in the primary walk-in closet includes a direct clothes-drop into the adjacent laundry room, streamlining household logistics.

Multi-Level Rear Decking: A robust outdoor footprint featuring a covered deck for entertaining, an open deck off the primary suite for sunning, and a connecting staircase down to the ground-level patio.

  • Footprint: 30' 0" Width x 66' 0" Depth (Ideal for narrow beachfront or coastal lots)
  • Max Ridge Height: 30' 10"
  • Foundation: Pier + 2x6
  • Framing: 2x6 Exterior Walls | Truss Roof Framing
  • Ceilings: 8' 8" Lower Level | 9' First Floor
  • Garage: Attached Drive-Under, 2 Cars, Rear Storage Capacity
  • Roof Details: 8 on 12 Primary Pitch | Truss Framing

Every blueprint in our collection is crafted with a strict focus on structural flow and spatial efficiency. The Palmetto Beach Hut takes the pure coastal essence of our original designs and scales it for long-term living. From the dual-sided fireplace for evening gatherings to the intelligent laundry drop in the primary suite, every square foot is purposefully crafted to solve a problem and elevate the daily experience. Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Every blueprint is crafted by Angela, a professional spatial designer with a degree in Construction Graphics Technology from Purdue University and studies in interior architecture.

With 16+ years of custom home design — including a decade in custom construction in Charleston, SC — Angela specializes in resilient coastal style homes designed for flood and hurricane zones.
