Split level homes provide a unique opportunity to design a home that makes the most of the site elevation, capturing views and breezes. We have introduced split level homes in some areas of Round Mountain to work with the natural contours of the land.

A split level lot features two flat building pads, which are separated by a batter in the middle of the lot.

Split level homes may be “up-split” or “down-split”. An up-split lot has garage access on the lower side of the lot, and a down split lot has garage access from the higher side of the lot.

Diagrams of “up-split” and “down-split” lots are shown in Figure 4.

Both options provide elevated living and offer great views from the upper level of your home, be it to the rear of your home or to the front. These home sites have been designed to capture views of the beautiful surrounding natural landscape.

There are several builders which specialize in split level homes, and we would be happy to assist you by providing a list of builders that can provide you with ready made designs or create a unique home design for your split level lot.
