One of the biggest decisions you will face when designing your new home is whether to build a single storey or double storey. Each option comes with its own set of advantages, and the best choice depends on your block size, budget, lifestyle, and how much space your family needs both now and in the future.

Single storey homes are often the preferred choice for families with young children or elderly members, as everything is on one level with no stairs to navigate. They tend to be more cost-effective to build, easier to maintain, and allow for a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces.
On the other hand, double storey homes are ideal when you want to maximise living space on a smaller block. By building upward, you can retain more of your backyard while still enjoying generous bedrooms, living areas, and storage. Upper-level bedrooms also offer better views and increased privacy from the street.
From a design perspective, double storey homes create a striking street presence and allow for creative architectural features like vaulted ceilings, mezzanine areas, and statement staircases. At MarkQ Homes, we offer a wide range of both single and double storey floor plans that can be tailored to suit your exact requirements.
Ultimately, the right choice comes down to your land, your lifestyle, and your vision for the future. Our team is here to help you weigh the pros and cons and find the perfect design for your family.
Speak with our design consultants to explore floor plans for both options.
