People often find themselves in a dilemma when choosing between a bungalow (single story) and a double story home. This article will address the benefits and challenges of going with either the bungalow or storied home.
There are a variety of ways to compare the advantages of a bungalow vs a storied home. Your choice will depend on your taste, the cost of the plot (status of the neighborhood), the size of the plot as well as your budget. But you will be likely to also consider the distinct benefits of each. Here’s a list of the benefits most often mentioned by my customers.
Many people believe that storied homes are cheaper to construct since they require less foundation and roofing materials. The rooms on the ground floor don’t require a roof and the rooms on the upper floor don’t require a foundation. There are also some savings on plumbing and electrical wiring because of the closer proximity of all the rooms in the house. However, storied homes require structural elements (beams and columns) to support the upper floor as well as stairs which can be expensive and consume space inside the home.
As it turns out, the difference in cost of a bungalow Vs a storied home is not enough to make a decision based solely on cost. So what are the important differences that might affect your family?
Bungalow/ One-Story/ Single Story Benefits
You might need fewer bathrooms since inhabitants will not be required to move from one floor to another to access the facilities.
