Ulysses is a two-story duplex house plan engineered with 1,460 square feet of heated living space per unit, specifically optimized for narrow lot constraints with a 19-foot width and 46-foot depth. This design utilizes a compact footprint to maximize site efficiency while maintaining a 28-foot maximum building height, making it a viable solution for multi-family residential development or investment properties.
The main level encompasses 614 square feet, centered around a kitchen configuration that incorporates a central island and a dedicated walk-in pantry. This ground-floor layout prioritizes utility, providing direct access from the 232-square-foot front-load garage. A front porch provides a structured entry point, separating the primary living zone from the exterior while maintaining a consistent building envelope.
The upper level spans 846 square feet and houses the bedroom clusters, which separate sleeping quarters to enhance acoustic and visual privacy. The master suite is positioned on this second floor, featuring direct bathroom access to consolidate plumbing and increase floor plan efficiency. This layout supports multi-generational living or rental income requirements through its clear division of public and private zones.
Structural specifications include 2x4 exterior wall framing and a 6:12 roof pitch, which facilitates water shedding and provides a traditional roofline profile. The design relies on a clear vertical hierarchy, with the main level serving as the social core and the upper level acting as a private, quiet residential zone. The 28-foot height profile ensures the structure remains proportionate to surrounding residential sites.
