Single Storey House Design Sydney

A single storey home offers more than just simplicity. It’s a lifestyle choice that brings comfort, practicality and long-term value. Here’s why so many families and investors prefer single storey house designs:

• Ease & Accessibility: With no stairs, living is safer and easier for families with young kids, older relatives, or anyone who needs an accessible layout.
• Efficiency & Energy Savings: With living spaces spread across one level, it’s easier to capture natural light and manage heating or cooling.
• Cost & Build Speed: Single storey house plans generally need fewer materials and a streamlined construction process, making them a cost-effective option.
• Open-Plan Lifestyle: Enjoy modern designs with flowing spaces that connect seamlessly to outdoor areas, perfect for entertaining or relaxing. 

Whether you’re looking for family comfort, downsizing with ease, or designing your forever home, our single storey home designs make it simple to create the lifestyle you’ve been imagining.

Here is some of the great feedback we’ve received from our satisfied customers about our single-level homes.

There are several advantages to building a one-storey house design.

• Reduced construction and maintenance costs: Compared to others, a single-storey home is generally much easier to design and construct and quicker to build, and because there are fewer building materials, the overall construction cost is reduced. Open-plan single-storey homes not only feel more spacious, but they are also much easier to clean and maintain, both inside and out.
• Improved accessibility: Having all the rooms of the home on one level means better accessibility for people with disabilities, older adults and small children.
• More efficient heating and cooling: With just one level, there is more natural light and better airflow than in two-storey properties. This means heating and cooling are more efficient, saving money and the environment.

What are single storey house plans?

Single storey house plans are home designs arranged on one level for easy living, good flow and strong indoor to outdoor connection. At Kurmond Homes, our single storey home designs range from narrow lot layouts to spacious acreage plans.

Are single storey homes cheaper to build?

They often cost less to build than double storey homes because the structure is simpler and there are no stairs. Total cost still depends on site conditions, inclusions and the size of the plan.

Do single storey homes suit narrow blocks?

Yes. We offer modern single storey house plans tailored for narrow lot widths that maximise living space, storage and natural light while meeting local planning rules.

Can I customise a single storey house plan?

Absolutely. You can adjust layouts, facades and inclusions to suit your lifestyle and block. Our team will guide you so changes remain practical and cost effective.

How long does construction take?

Timeframes vary by design, approvals and site conditions. We provide a clear build timeline after your selections and engineering are confirmed, and keep you updated at each stage.
