Benefits of Two Storey Narrow Lot Homes

With a narrow lot two-storey home, it’s possible to have it all: a spacious, modern home with room to grow, located in the heart of Perth, at a price that won’t break the bank. Here are just some of the benefits of two-storey narrow lot house plans that we know you’ll love.

Lower Costs, More Space

One of the biggest advantages of building upwards on a narrow lot that is allows you to maximise living space while minimising costs. With a cleverly designed double-storey home, families can enjoy all the room they need to grow and thrive, without the expense of a large block. This means more money in your pocket for the things that matter most, like family vacations, hobbies, and creating lasting memories.

Modern Living

Let’s face it – life can be hectic. Between work, family commitments, and trying to find time for yourself, the last thing you want to do on the weekend is spend hours maintaining a large yard. That’s where narrow lot homes really shine.

With a smaller outdoor area, you’ll spend less time on yard work and more time doing the things you love. Whether that’s exploring the vibrant city of Perth, trying out new cafes and restaurants, or simply relaxing with your loved ones, a narrow lot home gives you the freedom to prioritise what matters most to you.

And it’s not just about the weekends – narrow lot two-storey homes are a perfect fit for the modern lifestyle overall. Busy professionals, growing families, and downsizers alike will all appreciate the ease and simplicity of maintaining a smaller outdoor area. You’ll have more time and energy to focus on the things that bring you joy and fulfilment.

So, if you’re ready to say goodbye to endless weekends of yard work and hello to a life filled with adventure, relaxation, and quality time with the people you love, a two-storey narrow lot home might just be the perfect choice for you.

Convenience on Your Doorstep

With two-storey narrow-lot homes, you can enjoy the convenience and excitement of inner-city living while still having ample space to yourself.

 World-class restaurants, cafes, cultural events, and entertainment are all just a short walk or drive away. Say goodbye to long commutes and hello to a lifestyle that’s as vibrant and exciting as the city itself.

Living closer to the city centre also means having access to a wide range of amenities, such as schools, hospitals, parks, and public transport. This not only makes daily life more convenient but also means that you and your family can make the most of everything Perth has to offer.

Elevate Your Views

Of course, let’s not forget that with great heights come great views. One of the features we love about two-storey house plans is the opportunity to enjoy stunning vistas of Perth’s skyline or other nearby features.

With a second storey, you’ll have a vantage point to take in the beauty of the city and surrounds from the comfort of your own home. Imagine waking up to the sunrise over the city or enjoying a sunset dinner with friends and family on your balcony.

In a narrow lot two-storey home, these incredible moments are all within reach. Whether you’re admiring the city lights at night or taking in the lush greenery of nearby parks, your elevated position will provide you with a unique and captivating perspective on your surroundings.

Embrace Minimalism

Focus on creating a minimalist, contemporary facade that showcases clean lines and a box-shaped exterior. This modern approach to design will help maximise your home’s visual impact while keeping costs to a minimum.

Prioritise Natural Light and Open-Plan Living

Incorporate large windows and clever room orientation to create a bright, airy atmosphere that feels spacious and inviting. Open-plan living areas that seamlessly connect living, dining, and kitchen spaces can also help create a seamless, fluid living environment that feels much larger than its actual footprint.

Choose an Efficient Floor Plan

Efficient floor plans are also key to designing a functional narrow lot double-storey home. By focusing on straight walls, stacked wet areas, and minimal hallways, you’ll be able to maximise usable space and create a home that feels both functional and spacious. Using basic shapes like squares and rectangles can also help to create a sense of flow and continuity throughout the home.

Don’t Forget About Landscaping!

A smaller yard doesn’t have to mean sacrificing style, functionality, or connection to the outdoors. With clever landscaping and design, you can create a stunning, low-maintenance outdoor space that perfectly complements your home and fits with your lifestyle. From intimate alfresco dining areas to lush, water-wise gardens, the possibilities are plentiful.
