If you're looking for beautiful beach house designs or
lakefront layouts
for vacation or retirement, you've come to the right collection! Whether you want to build a small
bungalow
or a multi-level waterfront
cottage
, you'll find that outdoor living takes center stage in these coastal house plans. Lanais, verandas,
porches
, and
patios
create many opportunities for indoor-outdoor living and relaxed entertaining. Many of these beach house designs include
walkout basements
so that you can expand on the lower level. Since building next to water necessitates special materials that can withstand salty air and corrosive conditions, our plan customization services can help you modify your beach house design to meet any local building regulations or restrictions. Some homes in this coastal house plans collection (especially the
Low Country or Tidewater styles
) include pier foundations.
