1.5 Storey houses

1.5 Storey houses

Our 1.5-story modular homes offer a distinct and charming appeal by incorporating visually striking sloped walls. These half-story spaces provide more versatility and charm than a simple open loft, expanding the potential uses of your living space.

Advantages of 1.5 storey houses
Quick turnarround
One of our main USPs is the fact that we have very quick turnaround times – ranging from a couple of weeks to a maximum of 2 months, but that varies depending on the project itself and its complexity.
Incredible pricing without compromising quality

Another reason why we are so confident in our Modular houses is because we do not compromise on quality. We use only the best quality materials for our projects while also having a cost-cutting system in place that keeps our costs down so we can also keep our prices down for our customers.

Usually setting up a Modular house includes a lot of active work from the customer’s end. With us, that is all taken care of by our Building experts – you just get updated on where we are with your order as we collect all the information we would need at the beginning of our work together.

A - Z Project Delivery

We handle the entire process from beginning to end, from the moment we speak for the first time, to when your modular house is fully assembled and ready for use. We cover the design, manufacturing, logistics, and assembly – so you don’t have to worry about it, just enjoy the process of getting your dream home.

Assemble by yourself
We offer the option of Self Assembly for all our modular houses, so if you want to assemble it by yourself, or with your own team, just let us know – that would change the price straight away.
Sustainability
Offsite methodology reduces construction waste by up to 80% 97% of our construction waste is recycled Factory controlled fit out leads to more efficient use of materials Typically a 50% CO2 savings – for example, Heriot Watt University have conducted research on Greenford Quay with regard to CO2 savings. The findings show the CO2 savings due to Tide and Vision’s modular technology on this scheme is equivalent to over 160,000 trees being planted.

What is a 1.5-story home?

A 1.5-story home is a single-story dwelling with an additional partial second floor, providing extra space and versatility. This unique design offers more options than a single-story home, while requiring a smaller investment than a two-story house.

What sets 1.5-story construction apart?

One-and-a-half-story house plans share a similar height with two-story homes; however, the second floor features sloped ceilings that do not reach full height. These designs typically include a master bedroom and laundry room on the main floor, combining the convenience of a single-story layout with a useful upstairs bonus area.

Technical Specifications

Wall
The walls are made from a wooden frame using studs with a cross-section of 35 x 95mm. These are fully insulated to save energy. All timber cladding has a six-layer protection process.
roof
The flat  roof is made from 35 x 120-190mm timber joists with mineral wool insulation. A damp-proof membrane layer protects the unit from rain and bad-weather conditions. In the case of a single-pitched or double-pitched roof, soft bitumen or profiled metal tiles can be used in the construction of the roof.
floor structure
Trident’s floor structure consists of 35 x 95mm timbers,  reinforced with OSB boards with E1-emission class and insulated with 100mm of non-combustible basalt mineral wool. The insulation also includes a Moisture protection membrane.
Foundation
Due to its lightweight construction, a Trident modular garden house can be installed in any garden or any soil type using concrete foundation or Ground screws. A minimal concrete foundation supports the structure of the unit.
Ventilation Performance
The base version of the modular housing operates passively with natural ventilation. Mechanical HRV systems and HEPA filters can also be installed if needed to improve air circulation and lower the risk of airborne bacteria transmission.
