Split level home designs Sydney, Wollongong, Newcastle and the Central Coast have come to love. Montgomery Homes is the go-to builder for split level house plans. Our reputation as the sloping site specialists precedes us and we often find competitors referring clients to us when they aren’t able to meet the customer’s needs for a sloping block.
As split level home builders, our specialist techniques have been refined over more than 30 years of building on sloping blocks of land and allow us to adapt our designs to complement the natural gradient of any site.
Take full advantage of the unique character of your site and discover a range of split level home designs for sloping blocks — whether your land calls for a downhill, uphill or sideways design.
Incorporating a Stepped Slab into a Single Storey or Two Storey Home
Building a split level home design enhances the slope of the land rather than working against it. For blocks of land with a more gentle slope, our team will recommend placing 'steps' into the design.
Building a new home is a big investment. By working with the natural slope of the land, you will improve the overall outcome of the home and avoid many long term issues such as poor ventilation, drainage issues, and the need for large retaining walls which can limit the useable yard space.
The standard ‘cut and fill’ method to home building is often the cheapest approach for the builder, but can be costly for long term. This method will leave you with considerable after hand over costs such as large retaining walls, a steep driveway, increased piering, drainage issues, and difficulty selling should you decide to move house in the future.
What is a Stepped Slab?
The Montgomery Homes stepped slab technique is one of our best kept secrets and is ideal for building a single or double storey home. Whilst a split-level or tri-level home is better suited to a steeper sloping block, this option allows us to cater for blocks of land that have a slight slope.
Traditional ‘cut and fill’ techniques require heavy excavation, resulting in steeper driveways and the need for retaining walls post-handover. When building on a slight slope, stairs (or a “stepped slab”) on a smaller scale can allow us to work with the site and adapt the home design accordingly.
The stepped slab technique results in higher ceilings, better drainage, natural light and ventilation — allowing you to enjoy your beautiful new home even more.
How we approach sloping sites
Whether your block slopes uphill, downhill or sideways, our sloping block specialist approach works with the natural gradient of the land. Downhill, uphill and sideways designs each unlock a different opportunity to take advantage of views, light and the unique character of your site.
Our sloping block specialist approach enables you to enjoy many benefits such as flatter driveways, more manageable retaining walls, and drastically improved street appeal — all while avoiding the excessive excavation that comes with a standard cut and fill build.
With more than 30 years of refined split level and stepped slab techniques, Montgomery Homes crafts a creative solution that complements almost any site — turning a challenging block into a more valuable asset.
