WHAT IS A Ground Floor House?

A Ground Floor House is a dwelling designed on one level, without additional floors. This type of construction is characterised by the absence of internal stairs and multiple levels, providing a simple and accessible living environment. The ground floor house is often appreciated for its practicality, offering a convenient solution for various categories of people, such as the elderly or those with reduced mobility.

By eliminating steps and level differences, a ground floor house provides easy and barrier-free access throughout the home, making it easier to move around and eliminating the challenges associated with stairs. This housing option can integrate various amenities such as bathrooms and kitchens adapted for accessibility, making the home a friendly and functional space for all residents.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF Ground Floor House

DISCOVER THE BEAUTY AND FUNCTIONALITY OF THE Ground floor HOUSE

The ground floor house is a form of housing that offers a number of advantages, focusing on comfort and affordability. Built on a single level, this type of house eliminates multiple steps and levels, providing an easy and friendly residential environment, perfectly suited to young families as well as the elderly and people with reduced mobility.

With a practical and efficient design, the ground floor house can vary in architectural styles from traditional to modern. Its main features include energy savings, easy access to outdoor space and adaptability to the specific needs of the inhabitants.

Whether it’s a ranch house, a quaint bungalow or a modern design, the ground floor house is an attractive option for those who appreciate simplicity, functionality and a welcoming living atmosphere.

 

ADVANTAGES OF GROUND FLOOR HOUSES

  • UNIVERSAL ACCESSIBILITY

    The ground-floor house provides a friendly living environment for all age groups and people with reduced mobility, removing the barriers associated with multiple steps and levels.

  • ADAPTABILITY TO DIFFERENT NEEDS

    Ground-floor homes are easier to adapt to the specific needs of residents, offering flexibility in design and allowing customisation to meet changing lifestyles.

  • SAFETY AND SECURITY

    One level of the house makes it easier to implement security systems, and easier access can contribute to better surveillance and protection of the home.

Disadvantages OF GROUND FLOOR HOUSES​

  • USABLE SPACE LIMITATIONS

    Ground-floor houses may have more land area required to provide the same amount of usable space as multi-storey houses, which can be a problem in areas with limited land.

  • POSSIBLE PRIVACY ISSUES

    Due to the lack of additional levels, ground floor houses may have less separation between private and common areas, which can affect the privacy of residents.

  • LIMITATIONS ON VIEWS

    In urban or suburban areas, a ground-floor house may have its view obstructed by surrounding tall buildings, limiting views and exposure to natural light.

Alternatives to Ground floor houses

There are various alternatives to the house on the ground floor, each with its own features and benefits. Here are some common alternatives:

Attic or Additional Floor:
Adding an extra level under the roof, such as a loft, can increase the usable space of your home without taking up additional land. This is an effective option in areas with limited land.

Modular or Tiny House:
A modular or tiny house offers a compact and space-efficient design. These homes can often be customized and are ideal for those who want a more minimalist or portable lifestyle.

Loft House:
Similar to a multi-storey house, the loft house has an extra level under the roof, providing additional space while maintaining a lower building height.
Each alternative has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the choice depends largely on personal preferences, needs and local conditions.
