Designing a split-level home on a steep block demands expert planning, innovative thinking, and a builder who truly understands the complexities of the terrain. At Building Buddy, we specialize in custom home design, ensuring that each project is tailored to the unique challenges of sloping sites.
The Challenge: A Steeply Sloping Overlooking Matthew Hawthorne Reserve
This project was built in Albany Creek, a 900 sqm lot offering breathtaking views of Matthew Hawthorne Reserve. Despite its beauty, the site posed significant technical challenges:
A steep incline requiring extensive excavation to create a stable foundation.
A driveway climb of 2m over 10.5m, requiring precise grading.
Structural retaining solutions to secure the property.
By using smart excavation techniques and leveraging the split-level home design, we ensured the home was not only structurally sound but also aesthetically outstanding.
The Solution: Efficient Engineering & Stunning Design
Our building designer team meticulously planned this home with a garage-under layout, allowing seamless entry and an optimized street presence. Key features include:
Stacked block and rock retaining walls for durability and visual appeal.
Internal retaining walls, reducing construction costs.
A spacious backyard, proving even steep sites can offer premium outdoor living.
Why Choose a Split-Level Home?
A split-level home design is ideal for house designs on upward-sloping blocks, as it provides:
Improved structural integrity with natural grading.
Panoramic views, maximizing the site's elevation.
Cost-effective land use, reducing excessive excavation.
Enhanced natural light flow, creating bright and open interiors.
