The Holly House Plan
3-Bedroom Narrow-Lot Beach House Plan
1,495 SQ. FT. | 3 BED | 2.5 BATH | 2-STORY | 2-CAR DRIVE-UNDER GARAGE
The Holly is a beautifully designed narrow-lot beach house plan built for the way coastal living actually works — with rearward views, an elevated living level, and a layout that makes every square foot count. An inviting front porch welcomes you in, while a vaulted ceiling over the open living space creates an airy, expansive feel that belies the compact footprint.
The square kitchen island and grill deck are made for social gatherings, while the primary suite offers a private 4-fixture bath and walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the main floor, with a drive-under 2-car garage and patio access at ground level.
Narrow-Lot Optimized Layout: At just 30’ 8” wide, The Holly is engineered specifically for narrow beachfront, coastal, or infill lots with rearward views.
Vaulted Living Room Ceiling: Soaring vaulted ceilings over the open living area create a spacious, airy atmosphere that feels far larger than the footprint.
Square Kitchen Island & Grill Deck: A central kitchen island and adjacent grill deck make this plan a natural entertainer — inside and out.
Primary Suite with 4-Fixture Bath: The master bedroom features a well-appointed 4-fixture bathroom and a generous walk-in closet.
Inviting Front Porch: A welcoming covered front porch sets the coastal tone from the moment you arrive.
Drive-Under 2-Car Garage with Patio Access: Ground-level garage and patio access keep beach gear organized and outdoor living effortless.
