Why Choose a Double Storey Home Design

Choosing between a double storey house and a single storey comes down to your land, your family and your future. Here are four practical reasons a double storey design works on Victorian blocks.

  • Maximise your land – Double storey homes maximise space on smaller blocks, preserving precious outdoor space for backyards and entertaining areas. Maximising solar orientation can improve energy efficiency on compact sites.
  • Separate living zones – Double storey homes provide better separation between living and sleeping areas. Open plan designs downstairs promote interaction among family members, while upstairs bedrooms enhance privacy. Double storey homes can offer elevated views and natural breezes from the upper level.
  • Family and lifestyle fit – Double storey designs are ideal for growing families needing more room. Flexibility in room design allows spaces to adapt as family needs change – a study today becomes a nursery tomorrow. Smart layouts balance space, functionality, and future needs in home design, and ample storage solutions are crucial for families to avoid clutter.
  • Block and orientation – Whether you have a corner block, a narrow frontage or a specific orientation to capture northern light, our extensive range of storey home designs can suit your site. Many designs feature open-plan living areas for family interaction regardless of block shape.

Double storey vs single storey? A double storey house offers more home on less land, but stairs and structural requirements shift the cost profile. If a single-level layout suits your lifestyle better, browse our single storey home designs for an alternative.
