As the population of Perth increases we are noticing that developers are reducing the size of lots for sale in order to maximise their profits by carving out as many blocks of land as possible and this has led to an increase in the demand for narrow lot homes. Even land owners with large blocks are subdividing their land because they either realise they don’t need so much land anymore or they can see they are better off making some money out of it. Many people believe that building on a narrow lot will leave them feeling cramped and claustrophobic but this doesn’t have to be the case.
Great Living Homes has a number of narrow lot house designs available that use great planning to maximise the space in your home; building upwards is one way to create more space when you have limited land. If you can’t find one of our designs to suit your lifestyle then we can work with you to create the perfect custom home for your needs.
This is one of our single storey narrow lot house designs with an 11 metre frontage this home still boasts 3 spacious bedrooms and a rear alfresco on top of the standard rooms like the laundry, bathrooms, kitchen, living and dining rooms.
The Island Retreat is one of our 2 storey narrow lot house designs which still manages to provide a whopping 300m2 of floor space (excluding the garage) despite the tiny 9.3 metre street frontage. This home has everything you could need with a storage room in the garage, a theatre, an open plan family, dining and kitchen plus alfresco on the ground level; whilst upstairs you’ll find 3 large bedrooms, a study (or 4th bedroom), a huge parent’s retreat with a kitchenette, a bathroom and a balcony at each end of the home!
