Narrow lot home designs
Our narrow lot home designs make smart use of available land without sacrificing comfort or quality. Many feature double storey layouts that utilise vertical space to deliver 3-4 bedrooms and generous living areas, with some suitable for zero lot builds close to property boundaries. Open plan living and efficient floor plans minimise wasted space on hallways or oversized entries.
Whether you choose a driveway and garage or prioritise indoor living space, our designs balance function with beauty. Like all Rawson homes, narrow lot builds are independently checked for quality and backed by a lifetime structural guarantee*.
With over 45 years' experience, transparent all-inclusive pricing, and comprehensive site assessments that identify costs upfront, we guide you through every stage from breaking ground to receiving your keys. Feel at home in a Rawson home.

FAQs
What are the advantages of a narrow lot?
If your narrow lot means you’ve been able to purchase land more affordably, this is great news for being able to create your overall home more affordably. Narrow lots can also mean less outdoor space to maintain, including relatively unused side gardens.
What is the best way to maximise space on a narrow lot?
Narrow lot home designs meet the challenge of using available space in a smart way. Often this is achieved through more open plan living, with minimal or no space wasted on hallways or vast entranceways. Two storey home designs will make the most of vertical rather than horizontal space.
What is the meaning of narrow lot?
There are different definitions of a narrow lot but, for practical purposes, we consider any land that is narrower than 12 metres across.
Should I have a driveway or a garage in my narrow lot design?
Some narrow lot home designs include a driveway and garage however this will take up land space that you might prefer to use as living areas. Two storey narrow lot homes have more potential for including spaces to park your car.
