4 Reasons To Consider Reverse Living House Plans

What are reverse living house plans?

Traditional homes feature primary living areas on the lower level — reverse living house plans flip the design and position the kitchen, family and meals rooms on the upper level with the majority of bedrooms placed on the lower level. Becoming increasingly popular across Australia, reverse living shifts the ‘classic’ home design providing an attractive and modern alternate lifestyle option. Montgomery Homes have a range of reverse living house plans and an attractive suite of reasons why you should consider this alternative living design.

In this article we share several advantages of building reverse living house plans.

1. Feel like you are on holidays, all the time!

Can you imagine feeling like you are in a holiday house 24/7?

Typically featuring reverse living floor plans, holiday homes are designed to allow guests to maximise upper-level destination views during the day with large windows engulfing the primary living areas with sunlight, and ample covered outdoor deck areas being a sanctuary for relaxation. And now, you can have this in your very own Montgomery Home.

The Miami 318

Everyone likes to have their own zone to relax in when on holidays. The Miami 318 features an extra-large family room that extends on to an extra-spacious deck — perfect for those who love to entertain, and provides ample opportunity to enjoy views from the upper level.

One of Montgomery Homes stylish reverse living 2 storey homes, the Miami 318 includes five luxurious bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and a variety of open plan living areas. The perfect guest zone exists on the lower floor, with three bedrooms and a large rumpus room positioned nearby. This stunning reverse living home is available in Executive, Retro and Metro facades.

The Bayview 325

Do you enjoy holidaying with other families or friends? Reverse living floor plans often seen in holiday houses will have separate living zones for large families, or groups travelling together. Mirror this in your new Montgomery Home with the Bayview 325 — two bedrooms are cleverly positioned on the lower level alongside a large rumpus room and main bathroom.

Affording you plenty of space to move, entertain your friends and family in the upper-level kitchen and primary living areas — carefully designed to take advantage of any potential views, breezes or landscapes. The perfect design for guests staying over, your master suite is located on the upper level.

2. Create a secluded guest zone on the lower floor

Cleverly crafted reverse floor plans with living spaces upstairs allow you to separate a guest zone from the main living area, affording much privacy to the lower level. With the master suite tucked away on the upper level, your guests will feel at home in their own lower level space, along with the luxury of a rumpus room to spread out to.

The Ravenna 261

A stand-out split-level design, the Ravenna 261 features five bedrooms and separate living spaces on each level. With the master suite on the upper level entertaining floor, the mid and lower floors of this design become the perfect guest retreat. Four spacious bedrooms, a rumpus room and home theatre provide ample space for your guests to relax and rejuvenate, separate from your haven on the upper floor. A spacious covered outdoor deck stems from the open plan kitchen and meals space — ideal for entertaining friends and family.
