60 Brilliant “One and a Half-storey House” Ideas and Inspiration for Every Style

One and a half story houses are a great way to get the best of both single and two-story homes. They offer a ranch-style base blueprint, meaning that the master bedroom and main living areas are on the ground floor while providing some extra space and separation for kids’ rooms and guests with a partial upstairs. If you’re considering building one, here are a few of the perks to having one.

Some people buy invest in large two-story homes while they’re raising kids and then worry later in life when the stairs become a challenge to go to bed.

Having a layout that includes a ground floor master bedroom alleviates the worry by preplanning an accessible home. A one and half story home makes space for kids rooms upstairs so that you don’t have to pay for all the extra foundation.

In a standard two-story home, all of the bedrooms are centralized upstairs. This can be a nice option for people who like the extra security of sleeping on an elevated floor but can be disruptive if you’re a light sleeper with noisy kids or want a little extra privacy from visiting guests.

Whether you stick the in-laws downstairs or keep the space for yourself, you can rest easy knowing there’s some extra peace and privacy between you while you sleep.
