Double-Storey Home Builders in South West Sydney

A new double-storey home is planned on two levels from the start. It can give you more room on the same block, with a clear split between living and sleeping areas.

Two levels

Planning a double-storey home

Living down, sleeping up
A common split puts living areas downstairs and bedrooms upstairs. Some families also want a bedroom on the ground floor for guests or older relatives.
Stairs
Where the stairs land on each floor affects how the rest of the plan works, and whether they feel like a feature or a hallway.
Storage on both levels
Linen near the bedrooms, a pantry near the kitchen and space under the stairs. Storage needs planning on each floor.
Privacy
Upstairs windows can overlook neighbours, and neighbours can overlook you. Window placement matters on both sides.

Common questions

Do I need a double-storey home for more space?

Not always. On a wide block a single-storey home may give you the room you need.

Can I have a bedroom downstairs?

Yes, that can be part of the plan. Tell us who it is for so we can talk through where it goes.
