Narrow Lot Kit Homes

Narrow lot homes are specific kit house plans which are designed specially to fit the blocks of width less than 13m. They are also called cottage lot homes. Generally, the lost space or minimal availability in width wise is outweighed by adding more stories or building deeper. Generally, house plans with a width less than 13m, are perfect for narrow lot houses.

Narrow lot house plans are usually seen in urban areas with narrow sizes, as buildings do not have a space to build wide but can build up or back.  Narrow homes are perfect for smaller ecological print with accommodations within the city or urban land.

Certain features of a narrow lot house are:

• Tall ceilings to appear as spacious buildings
• Rooms of greater length with multi-stories to accommodate adequate rooms
• Master bedroom at main floor level (generally ground floor) should fit aptly with other bedrooms at another story.

A few benefits of narrow lot homes are:

• Can be bought at an affordable price for starters
• Unique and flexible with suitable to build on slopy areas
• Less Eco footprint leading to environmentally friendly space

Narrow homes are useful for couples or families who want to raise their children close to the urban community. Further, accommodating a piece of garden/ a landscape in front or back would be an added asset for people wanting to have a more natural environment. Additionally, garages are fitted to build at rear views if possible, to avoid blocking front appealing appearance.

Narrow homes make efficient use of space while offering the charm of urban living, and a thoughtfully designed garage can enhance both functionality and aesthetics. Placing garages at the rear of the home helps maintain the clean, appealing appearance of the front facade, creating a more inviting atmosphere for both residents and visitors. This layout not only optimizes curb appeal but also allows for better use of space, such as incorporating a garden or small landscape at the front for a touch of greenery.

To ensure these rear-facing garages are both practical and reliable, it’s important to have a durable, well-maintained garage door. Services like D&L Garage Doors specialize in keeping garage doors in excellent condition, whether through regular maintenance or necessary repairs. With their expertise, homeowners can enjoy seamless functionality while preserving the modern and stylish appeal of their narrow homes.

Generally, narrow homes are preferred in expensive areas with narrow plot widths. Otherwise, owners may split a 20m plot width, demolish an existing structure, and construct 2 brand new 10m wide homes. Commonly it is decided at the initial stages, as to whether to construct a single storey narrow lot home or 2 storeys narrow lot home. However, 2 storeyed would benefit the user with much living area if the footprint of house plan is smaller.
