Two-Story Modular Home: Perfect Home Style For Smaller Properties
A growing family needs a modular home style that offers space and privacy. A home that will feature at least three large bedrooms with generous closet space, spacious bath, and expansive living room. However, if you have a limited lot size, you may be wondering if it is possible to build a spacious home with a smaller property. The answer to that question is decisively “yes”!
When you have a smaller lot, modular home with two above-ground stories might be the best style for you. Building upward (instead of outward) is more practical and less costly per square foot. When you compare single-story homes to two-story homes, the latter requires less foundation, roofing, electrical wiring, and plumbing. All of this contributes to increased value as measured in cost per square foot.
Let us take personally provide you with a virtual tour of any of the wide-ranging styles of home that we build in Surry (and across all of Hampton Roads). Since today we’re talking about two story homes, please browse our two-story modular home designs, that of course, all can be custom modified to your own discerning taste.

This style of home is distinguished by their pitched roof and vintage New England appeal. They are perfectly symmetrical and features shingles that cover the house, fancy shutters on the front-facing windows, roof dormers.
Cape Cod's sloping roof is more than just a distinctive feature. While most cape cod designs are single story floor plans, some home builders love the cape cod design as they seek to reduce initial home building construction cost while retaining the option to easily expand their living space in the future. When the time comes to add additional living space, the undeveloped space under the high sloping roof is converted into an extra bedroom. So, beauty, functionality, and expandability all in one custom modular home design.
