Single-storey homes remain one of the most popular choices for Australian homeowners, offering a practical, accessible and comfortable way to live. With everything on one level, these homes provide simplicity in design while delivering spacious, functional layouts suited to a wide range of lifestyles.
At Perry Homes, our single-storey designs are created to maximise space, comfort and flow, making them an ideal option for families, first-home buyers and downsizers alike.
Easy and Convenient Living
One of the biggest advantages of a single-storey home is its ease of movement. With no stairs to navigate, daily life becomes more convenient and accessible for everyone in the household.
This layout is particularly appealing for:
• Families with young children
• Older homeowners planning for long-term living
• Anyone who values simple, practical home design
Having all living spaces, bedrooms and outdoor areas on one level also makes everyday tasks and household routines more efficient.

Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Living
Single-storey homes are ideal for creating a strong connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. Open-plan layouts can easily extend to terrace areas, swimming pools or gardens, making entertaining and family time more enjoyable.
Large sliding doors, outdoor kitchens and covered entertaining areas are popular features that enhance the flow between living spaces and the backyard.
For many homeowners, this seamless integration is a key part of the modern Australian lifestyle.
Spacious and Functional Layouts
While single-storey homes are designed on one level, they can still offer generous floorplans and well-defined living zones.
Modern single-storey designs often include:
• Open-plan kitchen, dining and living areas
• Multiple living spaces or activity rooms
• Private master suites with walk-in robes and ensuites
• Dedicated study area or home office spaces
• Outdoor entertaining areas
In many cases, single-storey homes can be more cost-effective to build compared to multi-story designs. Construction tends to be simpler, and maintenance over time can also be easier.
With fewer structural complexities, homeowners can often allocate more of their budget toward finishes, landscaping or additional lifestyle features.
Single-storey homes suit a wide range of homeowners and life stages. Whether you're building your first home, upgrading for a growing family or downsizing to something more manageable, a well-designed single-story layout can adapt to your changing needs.
At Perry Homes, we offer a wide range of thoughtfully designed single-storey homes that combine comfort, practicality and modern style. Our designs are tailored to suit different block sizes and family lifestyles.
If you're looking for a home that offers simplicity, functionality and timeless appeal, a single-storey design may be the perfect fit.
