I’m looking at a 10×12 addition to a master bedroom for a new bath, turning the smaller existing bath into a closet. I want the floors to be level. The bedroom is over a basement that has about 3 feet of concrete sticking out of the ground. I don’t want to have to pour a stemwall foundation just to make it blend in, but haven’t come up with any good alternatives. Any ideas?

Concrete block, plaster it to match the concrete. I'm assuming it's just a crawlspace under the new addition.
