Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Double story Balcony or bigger house with no balcony 6May 25, 2019 11:41 pm I'd only be guessing, but maybe balcony houses tend to have a better kerb appeal? Though you can easily have a nice facade otherwise. If I were looking at two houses that were the same price and layout but one was bigger, the other had the more interesting facade, I'd go the bigger house. For sure I prefer the Avenue facade, but i'd take the size any day. And it wouldn't even factor in whether a house had a balcony or not, but that's individual preference. If you're looking only at resale value then maybe talk to a real estate agent to get an idea, but then that info would only be on current market trends. In any case - you only need that one buyer...

Thank you for your valuable comment as I am not sure whether I would move from my current place to a new one and that's the reason i am wondering better of building 4 square bigger house with no balcony or balcony with a small home. I will contact real estate agent and get an idea. Re: Double story Balcony or bigger house with no balcony 8Jun 02, 2019 7:09 pm I just built my house with Ultima Facade, and I am so happy not to go with balcony. I can see outside from my bed because of 4 massive windows. If you go with balcony then you have to open the door to see outside or have to go with full glass balcony which is more expensive. my Personal advice not to go with balcony.

Thank you for your valuable reply. Could you post your Ultima facade image as I am planning to add tiles and something else to look good in case I go without a balcony. Photo attached from the existing facade. At the moment I cannot justify 26K for Avenue facade.
