What Are Duplex House Plans?

A duplex is a single building divided into two separate dwelling units. These may be arranged side-by-side or stacked on top of each other. Each unit typically has its own entrance, living area, kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms. They are ideal for multi-generational living, rental income, or shared investments. Compared to building two single-family homes, they’re a more cost-effective option that often requires less land and infrastructure.

Why Choose a Duplex?

  • Maximized Investment Potential: Live in one unit and rent the other for steady income.
  • Flexible Living Arrangements: Perfect for multi-generational households or families who want privacy while staying close.
  • Cost Efficiency: Lower construction and land costs than two detached houses.
  • Ideal for Narrow or Urban Lots: Many narrow lot house plans adapt easily into duplex designs.
  • Customizable Features: Modify floor plans to suit your needs with our affordable CAD adjustments.

Design Styles for Every Neighborhood

Our two-unit layouts come in a range of architectural styles—from modern farmhouse and contemporary to traditional and European. Choose from designs with garages, open-concept living areas, decks, porches, and more. Many of our layouts allow units to share a common wall for cost savings while maintaining privacy.

Popular Layout Features

  • Open-plan kitchens and living rooms that maximize usable space
  • Split-bedroom designs for added privacy
  • Private garages or carports for each dwelling unit
  • Shared outdoor areas such as patios or gardens
  • Separate entrances for complete independence

All Plans Include:

  • Construction-ready CAD files and PDFs
  • Unlimited build license
  • Free foundation changes (slab, crawlspace, basement)
  • Custom modification options for kitchens, garages, entrances, and more
  • Structural engineering included
  • Full previews of all plan sheets before purchase

How Duplexes Compare to Other Multi-Family Options

Compared to triplex or townhouse designs, duplexes typically face fewer zoning challenges while still offering strong rental potential. They’re a smart middle ground for small-scale unit buildings in both urban and suburban areas.

Who Benefits Most from Duplex Homes?

  • Real estate investors seeking rental properties
  • Estate agents marketing high-demand dual living spaces
  • Families needing flexible arrangements
  • Retirees downsizing with rental income opportunities
  • First-time builders looking for cost-effective designs
