23 * 55 house plan 2bhk west facing with 1bhk for rent
RH0012
This meticulously designed G+2 plan accommodates a 23’ x 55’ west-facing plot, combining familial lifestyle and income generating opportunities. The entire house incorporates a 2 BHK unit on the ground floor, while the first and second floors each host a 1 BHK unit, strategically designed to be rented out. This arrangement allows for substantial income while ensuring privacy and self-sufficiency between units. The ground floor is occupied by the primary living space of the homeowner featuring a spacious parking area. The planning ensures sufficient cross ventilation, captures sunlight throughout the day, and allocates areas suitable for minor horticultural endeavors, which, in combination, cater to contemporary urban lifestyle needs.
The ease and comfort is embedded within the layout of the building with a perimeter of 1,265 square feet. There is a compact access space with the dimensions of 1 foot that serves basic functional purpose. It is pleasing to note that, with measuring of 11'3'' x 15'2'' the parking area is quite spacious and can comfortably house bicycles and small garden elements. Main entry has also been oriented to face the east, which is good from the vastu point of view. Inside the house, the living room is 13'4'' x 13'4'” in size and can provide a garden-style seating experience with a outstanding view and seating options. In addition, there is also a provision for a washing machine in the room towards northwest (5'4”x6'8”) which makes this area even more useful. An open kitchen located towards Southeast (13’4” x 14’) has also been added so that it can serve the home centrally and effectively.Primary bedroom has been located towards the east side of the floor and is 13’4” x 10’ which is the dimension of the space with garden view. This room has been further improved with a northeast dressing room (4’10” x 10’) with an attached toilet (4'10” x 7'10”) to maintain bedroom privacy. Another common in the spent bathroom (4'10" x 8'2'') serves shared area and is located towards the northwest side for easy access for visitors or shared use.
Going up, the first floor contains a footprint of 1,155 square feet and incorporates most of the efficient design features found in the ground floor, but configured as a 1 BHK apartment. A comfortable west facing balcony measuring 9’ by 3’ 9 provides gardening and outdoor vista enjoyment. The main door also opens from the west; this sets the entrance apart from the homeowner’s space. The living hall has the same dimensions as below (13` 4’’ x 13` 4``) and also has a northwest facing washing machine area (5`4’ x 6`8`). The kitchen (13` 4’’ x 14") also faces southeast and is still considered to be the open kitchen and the main focus. Its adjoining utility area (4`10" x 3`2") is designated for the purposes of laundry and storage while the kitchen is still dominated with cupboards (overhead and undercounter). This floor holds two bedrooms: a northwest bedroom (9`2’’ x 15`2``) and an east bedroom (13`4’’ x 10’) enabled with a northeast dressing room (4'10'' x 10`) and an attached bathroom (4'10" x 7’10"). There is also a common bathroom (4'10" x 8'2") located in the northwest corner for easy access.
Like the first floor, the second floor has an area of 1,155 square feet and the layout of all rooms and utility spaces are exactly the same. Standardization helps reduce construction costs, and enhances flexibility to convert the floor into anything, be it an expanded living area, additional rental unit, or shared family space. The design allows for expansion and remodeling depending on how residents’ lifestyles change over time.
