I really understand the advantages of having a single story house but why does it seem so uncommon to see two story houses in the US/Canada?
Stairs are for healthy people.
That is not a lie and I am very much aware of that reality, as a member of my household is in serious risk to lose mobility due to health issues. Yet, vertical space is always a good thing to have.
Why? It's cheaper at the front end but a pain in the ass the whole time. It's much better and convenient to have a bungalow.
What? If you don't have mobility issues why wouldn't you want a multi story house? There's more space that way.
Convenience. Have you ever moved mattresses and couches up a flight of stairs?
Yep I have. Mattresses are easy it's the sofas that cause issues.
