Hi
Our block slopes up toward the back - very even all the way up. We want to do an Undercroft type design.
Double Garage/ study/ stairs/ storeroom on the bottom.
All living area on the top.
Anyone know of any design ideas/ hints / tips ???
We need a 4* 2 1/2 (powder room).
Open plan living / dining. Games room. The back needs an exit straight out to the existing pool, where the loo / bathroom is close by for wet people and towels etc.
Anyone done this or blogged about it.
My searches aren't turning up much.
Any help would be fantastic.
Cheers
Hi Perthgirl
We didn't end up building this - it was a cost and other factor issue - but I still love it
Is that what you mean when you say undercroft?
Yes - it's very similar to what we were shown last night by a builder who were're looking at - he did some ideas on what might work but a few things aren't sitting right with me.
Your design look like it is stretched sideways and is not too deep.
Ours is quite deep (at the top floor) but 17 m accross.
The undercroft has study where your lounge is and garage in the same spot - double entry doors (in the middle) and a store room at the back, by the stairs.
The Master bedroom looks like it is coming off the living area - our design does to and that dosen't sit well with me. Hubby thinks it's OK but I don't really want to share our bedroom wall with the Lounge room where ppl will be watching TV!
The block is 20 m wide and 40 m deep. Slopes up toward the back, maybe 2 . 5 - 3 m over the whole block.
Design for sloping blocks must be very hard to find here in Oz.
Google is taking me to some USA sites and some english ones - even then not much seems to be out there.
Hi again,
Can't remember the width of this design but we have a 20m wide block also.
The Master is coming off the Multi purpose room (aka kids play room) I'll see if I can find a better image of the plan for you as that one is a bit *.
Hang on!
Oh yes, very hard to find designs
Let me think about some other builders - although I'm in Sydney which isn't going to help you, but at least might give you ideas
Nope can't find a clearer picture
Got to get kids -will be back later!
sounds like our house could be similar to what you are looking for.
Will try and upload our plans tonight (can't do it from work).
We have double garage, study/guest room, powder room downstairs. Double enrty doors
5 beds, lounge, kitchen, dining, family, alfresco etc upstairs.
Our block slopes upwards from the front to the back
Just put our plans on my thread.
Hope this is how I attach a link?
