About the home this two storey house design will give you:

A formal and compact design from the outside, the ground floor living rooms are revealed as generously open plan, opening on to a terrace sheltered by the upper floor terrace, offering sun and shade choices.

The study offers an alternative enclosed space for TV or reading, or could be a guest room, especially since it is beside the guest toilet, where a shower could be added.

Upstairs, in a very economical arrangement, are 3 bedrooms (master bedroom with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe), all of which open on to the terrace via folding doors, and a full bathroom. Note also the bedroom wardrobes are located between the bedrooms, to provide acoustic privacy.

Among the wide variety of house designs we offer we are sure you will find a house plan that’s right for you. If you like a floor plan or home design but some changes would make it the perfect home plan for you, we offer a custom-design service and will alter the floor plan and house design to suit your needs.
