Building on a narrow lot? Send Jovan its width and depth first: two stories cover far less ground than one level of the same area.

How ordering works

The twelve designs here run from Elise and Lumen, at 180 m² (1,938 ft²), to Altura, 400 m² (4,306 ft²) over three levels. Linea, Oasis and Collina are flat-roof family homes, Elise and Natura sit under hipped roofs, and Loggia, Horizon and Travertino have five bedrooms. Cascade, Belvedere, Altura and Travertino are stone and travertine villas. Each is drawn in metric by CAD ART studio in Serbia, with every area in m² and ft².

Finding your two-story plan

Start with the size and the roof. The family homes run from Elise, a three-bedroom two-story contemporary house plan, and Lumen, a flat-roof house plan with a pool, at 180 m² (1,938 ft²), through Linea, a two-story flat-roof house plan with an integrated garage, at 200 m² (2,153 ft²), and Oasis, a modern house plan with a two-car garage, to Collina, a flat-roof modern plan with a family lounge upstairs, at 230 m² (2,476 ft²). For a sloping lot, Natura, a four-bedroom house plan for a sloping lot, puts its garage at the lower level. For five bedrooms, compare Loggia and Horizon at 300 and 340 m² (3,229 and 3,660 ft²); 300 m² house plans sets them beside the villas Belvedere and Cascade.

A two-story house covers less ground and needs a stair, so start from your lot and from who will use the stairs every day. One-story vs two-story house plans weighs the cost, the land and daily life, and 200 m² house plans compares one-level, two-story and walk-out layouts of the same area. For a first budget, what it costs to build each design gives every two-story plan at the 2025 US median per square foot, region by region.

Questions about modern two-story house plans and two-storey house designs

Is two-story the same as two-storey?

Yes. Two-story is the US spelling and two-storey the British, Irish and Australian one; both mean a house with two full floors. Every design here has at least two; Altura has three, and Natura adds a basement.

What is the smallest two-story plan?

Elise and Lumen, at 180 m² (1,938 ft²) each, with three bedrooms. Elise has two offset volumes under low hipped roofs in gray metal; Lumen has flat roofs and a pool with a glazed side wall beside its garden terrace. Linea follows at 200 m² (2,153 ft²), then Oasis at 212 m² (2,282 ft²), including its two-car garage.

Which two-story plans have a bedroom on the ground floor?

Lumen, Collina, Loggia, Horizon and Travertino. Lumen's ground floor holds a bedroom, a study and a bathroom with a tub beside the living and dining room; Collina's has a bedroom with a dressing room and a bathroom. Loggia, Horizon and Travertino each have a guest bedroom on the ground floor beside a bathroom. Belvedere adds a ground-floor room usable as a guest room or study.

Is a two-story house cheaper to build than a one-story house?

For the same floor area, a two-story house needs about half the foundation and half the roof, and a one-story house needs a wider lot but no stair. Linea and Solana are both 200 m² (2,153 ft²): Linea over two levels, Solana on one. Our plans are priced by size, not by the number of stories.
