Why Choose a 2 Storey House Design
No matter the size of your block of land, by building up and adding a second floor you’re increasing the square footage of your home, giving you plenty of space and options for how to use the space. Double storey house plans allow you to maximise space without taking it away from other valuable areas in the home.
There are also plenty of other benefits that come with a two storey house:
Creates ‘zone living’
Zone living is a popular design concept for many new home builders. Regarding the layout of the home, zone living in a two storey home organises living spaces based on their function, ensuring that different areas are designed specifically for activities, like sleeping, entertaining, or working. This often means allocating bedrooms and private spaces to one level (typically the upper floor), separating these from communal areas on the ground floor such as the kitchen, living, and dining spaces. This clear separation provides easier access to the communal areas where your family and friends are free to gather for daily activities and entertaining, while also creating a more peaceful experience in the spaces needed for rest, relaxation, or concentration. Not only does zone living make sense in terms of livability and functionality, zones contribute to better heating and cooling for a more cost-effective home.
Offers peace and privacy
In a double storey home the levels generally separate the living and dining open spaces from the bedrooms, creating a private and quiet retreat.
Enjoy better views
Nothing beats a gorgeous view, and with two storeys your family could enjoy more panoramic views from their windows or balconies.
Increased flexibility
When you want flexibility, the possibilities are nearly endless with a double storey house design. You could:
- Devise an extended kitchen that fits all the mod-cons you could ever want
- Create more functional storage spaces
- Design an open-plan living room space
- Include a study or home office
- Plan a toy room for the little ones or a rumpus room for the big kids to hangout in
- Set up a media room with surround sound for an at-home cinema experience.
Multi-generation living
With a double storey layout, you can create a home that will fit your family across generations. For example, a ground floor bedroom and ensuite can provide the ideal space for elderly relatives who aren’t mobile enough to take the stairs, or a separate bedroom with study upstairs can become the perfect quest quarters when family members come to visit.
