Spacious 4-Bedroom Waterfront Home with Loft and Garage

The Curtis is a two-story waterfront home featuring 3,364 square feet of total heated living space, engineered for durability and scenic views. Spanning 55 feet in width and 53 feet in depth, this residence incorporates a pier foundation—with optional piling—to accommodate coastal or waterfront environments. The exterior is defined by a steep 12:12 primary roof pitch and a 6:12 secondary pitch, reaching a maximum building height of 39 ft 8 in.

The main level provides 1,994 square feet of living area, anchored by an open-concept core featuring a gas fireplace and exposed beams. The primary suite is situated on this level, equipped with dual walk-in closets and a 4-fixture bathroom. A dedicated kitchen island serves as the central hub, supported by a walk-in pantry. Ceiling heights of 10 feet on the first floor enhance the volume of the common areas, while an integrated elevator provides accessibility across all levels.

Occupying 1,370 square feet, the second floor includes a loft area with a beverage bar and direct access to an open deck, which provides 425 square feet of outdoor space for waterfront observation. Secondary bedrooms are located on this level, benefiting from 9-foot ceiling heights that maintain a sense of vertical proportion. The layout prioritizes separation between the primary living zones and the upper-level retreat.

Structural integrity is achieved through 2x6 exterior wall framing. The design includes extensive outdoor living components, comprising 1,048 square feet of total porch area, with 621 square feet allocated to the front porch and 427 square feet to the rear porch. These exterior spaces allow for cross-ventilation and extended living options that overlook the surrounding landscape.

A drive-under garage provides 1,978 square feet of space, accommodating 2 cars and including additional storage zones with a designated golf cart area. This side-entry garage configuration preserves the front elevation while providing significant utility for coastal storage needs. Key Features: 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, 1 half bathroom, elevator access, 2-car drive-under garage, pier foundation, 10-foot first-floor ceilings, loft with beverage bar, walk-in pantry, dual walk-in primary closets, and 2x6 exterior wall framing.

Crawl Space - This foundation is raised off the ground with low walls resting on footings, providing space for wiring, plumbing, and storage.

Basement - This foundation is entirely or partially below ground and offers storage or living areas.

JoAnne and the entire staff was extremely helpful and patient with us while we decided between 2 homes. This home has outstanding curb appeal and a great layout perfect for us. I work from home so having the home office off the foyer is fantastic. I converted the wet bar into a storage closet for my office. We also extended the laundry room into the porch and created a multipurpose laundry/mud room. I would buy from archival designs again and again.

It took almost a year to pick a plan. Since my husband and I retired a few years ago we wanted this last house had to have everything we wanted and needed. The kitchen is my favorite part of the house. I can see what’s happening in my neighborhood through my kitchen window and watch my husband garden in the back yard. Our children think we made a smart decision when we picked this house for our senior years.

We’ve had an amazing experience with our new home and are excited to be moved in. The customer service we received during our modifications was exceptional. We are loving the open layout of the kitchen and family room. It feels spacious and I’m already planning on hosting holiday dinners at home. We recommend Archival Designs to anyone interested in building the home they’ve always wanted!

We absolutely adore the Kildare Place house plan. Made some modifications to make this home ours! Our house is the talk of the neighborhood. We host big parties every holiday and still get compliments from our friends and family. We searched for months and looked through hundreds of floor plans and this one had almost everything we wanted, and with the help of the great staff at Archival Designs we got exactly what we wanted!

FAQ

Can I modify this Spacious 4-Bedroom Waterfront Home with Loft and Garage now or later?

Absolutely. We offer in-house modification services to adjust layouts, room sizes, or expand garages before purchase. If you prefer to make adjustments during the construction phase, purchasing the CAD file package allows your local builder or architect to make on-site changes. Simply click 'Request a Modification' for a free quote.

How much will it cost to build this Spacious 4-Bedroom Waterfront Home with Loft and Garage and why aren't exact costs shown? 

Construction costs vary significantly ($150–$300+ per sq. ft.) based on your location, material choices, and local labor rates. Because site preparation and regional codes differ, it is hard to provide a universal cost always.

Will this Spacious 4-Bedroom Waterfront Home with Loft and Garage fit my lot, and can I add a basement or flip the layout?

You can check the 'Modifications' tab for width and depth requirements. To fit your site's orientation, most plans are available in a 'Right Reading Reverse' (mirrored) format. We also offer slab, crawlspace, and basement foundation adjustments for every design.

Do your plans meet building codes in my area and do I need a professional stamp?

Our plans meet or exceed national IRC (International Residential Code) standards. However, due to varying local requirements regarding seismic, wind (hurricane), or snow loads, house plans do not come with a professional architect’s or engineer’s seal. Most municipalities require a review and stamp by a local licensed professional to obtain a building permit.

Are plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical drawings included?

We provide the architectural and schematic electrical framework, but HVAC and plumbing layouts are not included. Because local codes and climate-specific systems vary significantly across the country, these are best finalized by your local subcontractors to ensure your home’s systems are optimized for your specific site and energy requirements.

Why should I choose Archival Designs and are the plans guaranteed?

With over 40 years of experience, Archival Designs provides high-quality, builder-ready designs that balance aesthetic elegance with structural integrity. We offer a Best Price Guarantee, a 10% discount for military and first responders, as well as builder discounts for life. And loyalty perks for pro builders. All plans are designed to comply with the IRC codes at the time of their creation. Learn more about our Best Price Guarantee.
