Do you know how to maximise space on
a small lot?

27 May 2024

Living in a bustling, densely populated area often means making the most of a smaller lot. But limited ground space doesn’t have to limit your home’s potential.

At Premier Traditional Homes, we specialise in creatively maximising every square inch with stylish, functional designs that rise above the rest—literally. Here’s why going vertical with double-storeys or attic designs can transform your compact lot into your dream home.

Consider going up

In tight spaces, the only way is up. Double-storey and Attic homes offer the perfect solution, providing ample living space without sacrificing outdoor areas. These elevated designs not only increase your square footage but also add an element of privacy and separation in your home—ideal for families, multi-generational living, or just creating that peaceful home office.

Embrace open-plan living

Open-plan layouts are a game-changer for making homes feel larger and more connected. By blending kitchen, dining, and living areas, you create a fluid space that’s both versatile and welcoming. Plus, it’s perfect for entertaining or keeping an eye on the kids.

Let the natural light flood in

Maximising natural light can dramatically transform the feel of your home. Understanding your lot’s orientation—where the sun rises and sets—allows you to design with light in mind. Windows, skylights, and glass doors can bring the outdoors in, making spaces feel brighter and bigger.

Be strategic with storage

Smart storage solutions are your best friend in a compact home. Think built-ins, multi-functional furniture, and creative nooks. Every item has its place, keeping your home clutter-free and spacious.

Spaces with multiple purposes

Design rooms to serve dual functions—a guest room that doubles as a study or a kitchen island that’s also a dining table. This flexibility is key when working with a small footprint.

Your home should reflect your lifestyle. Whether you crave privacy, have a bustling family life, or love hosting, designing with these factors in mind ensures your home works for you. Balconies, landscaped courtyards, and thoughtful window placements can all play a role.

A small lot encourages innovative thinking and design. With Premier Traditional Homes, your compact space doesn’t mean compromising on style or functionality. Our expertise in double-storey and attic homes means you get a light, airy, and spacious home tailored to your needs and dreams.
