The Carr Twin is a 2,182 sq ft duplex house plan designed with a 60 ft width and 50 ft 4 in depth, providing a balanced footprint for multi-family or rental investment applications. Each of the two identical units offers 1,091 sq ft of heated living space, effectively maximizing the site utility while maintaining clear separation between residences through a symmetrical layout.
The interior of each unit centers on an open-concept living area that integrates the kitchen and keeping room to promote natural light penetration. Each residence features a split-bedroom layout, ensuring privacy by placing the first-floor master suite away from the secondary bedroom. The inclusion of a walk-in closet and a master bath with a double vanity adds utility to the primary living quarters, while the overall 8-foot ceiling height throughout the main level provides a consistent vertical profile.
Construction details for this duplex include a slab foundation and 2x4 wall framing for structural efficiency. The roof assembly utilizes a combination of 6:12 and 10:12 roof pitches, resulting in a maximum building height of 24 ft 1 in. This roof geometry contributes to the overall curb appeal of the structure while maintaining a cost-effective framing profile for builders.
Practicality is addressed through the integration of a front-load, two-bay garage totaling 618 sq ft, with 309 sq ft allocated to each unit. This garage configuration allows for secure resident parking and convenient access points. With first-floor laundry facilities provided in each unit, the plan is optimized for accessibility, catering to a diverse demographic of renters or long-term occupants.
