A duplex house plan designed for profitability and comfort
Are you looking for a duplex house plan that combines functionality, modernity, and profitability? This contemporary model is ideal for owner-occupants looking to generate rental income or for investors seeking a well-designed multi-unit housing project. Offering a smart layout on a single floor, this duplex house will charm you with its elegant simplicity and efficient layout.
Contemporary design and sleek facade
At first glance, the contemporary architecture of this duplex impresses with its sleek aesthetic and modern facade. The harmonious combination of light horizontal siding, dark gray masonry details, and large windows gives the building a simple, contemporary, and attractive appearance. The hipped roof and covered porch enhance the welcoming feel while protecting the main entrance from the elements.
Optimized space for two complete apartments
With a total area of 1,075 square feet spread over a single floor, each apartment in this duplex house plan has been carefully designed to provide a pleasant and efficient living environment. Both units have a separate entrance, ensuring privacy and independence for the occupants.
Each apartment includes a functional kitchen, a dining room open to the bright living room, two or three bedrooms depending on needs, and a full bathroom with a tub and separate shower. The layout emphasizes the fluid flow between the rooms, while maximizing natural light thanks to large, well-positioned windows.
A finished basement for even more space
The duplex rests on a solid and durable poured concrete foundation, with a fully finished basement. This additional space can be used for various purposes: storage, laundry, mechanical room, or even a second rental unit, depending on needs and municipal regulations. This configuration increases occupancy or income potential while offering significant long-term flexibility.
An ideal income-generating home for all projects
Whether you're a young couple looking for a home with additional income, a family looking to accommodate a loved one, or an investor looking for a low-maintenance residential building, this duplex house plan adapts to a wide variety of profiles. It combines the advantages of an income-generating property with the comfort of a well-designed residential space.
With its 38-foot width and 30-foot depth, this compact building can easily fit on most urban or suburban lots, while respecting regulatory setbacks. The absence of a garage optimizes living space, but it's still possible to add outdoor parking or an adjacent carport.
