Sloping Lot/Hillside Home Plans

A sloping or hillside piece of land often has the house plan built into the hillside or sloping property. Two-story homes and two and a half story homes work well on this particular lot style. Many homes built on a sloping/hillside lot have walk-out basements or daylight basements adding additional living space the lowest level of the home. Drive-under garages are more easily accommodated with a sloping lot as well. Many house designs built on a sloping/hillside lot take full advantage of their surroundings by having second floor balconies or decks overlooking the terrain.
