New modern Simeinyi house plan for two families with separate entrances (200 м²)

New modern house plans: Simeinyi, a 200 m² two-unit home

Simeinyi is a two-storey, two-unit home of 200 m² with separate entrances and independent room groups for two households. For people comparing new modern house plans, it is a practical answer when relatives want to live nearby without sharing one entrance or one daily routine.

The overall footprint is 20.99 × 13.48 m, so the plot layout should be checked together with the required setbacks before construction begins. For a comparison with larger homes, see the 200–300 m² house-plan collection.

Who chooses houses of this format

Simeinyi suits two related families who want proximity but need their own arrivals, kitchens and private rooms. One ground-floor study is 13.3 m² and can become a guest bedroom. That gives a resident who should avoid stairs a sleeping place on the entrance level rather than only on the upper floor.

The arrangement also works when one household needs more bedrooms while the other needs a compact everyday layout. The plan does not force every meal, visit or service task through one common hall. Each entrance begins its own sequence of rooms, while the terraces can remain a place for voluntary shared time.

Floor plan of the Simeinyi house

The 133.1 m² first floor joins the two living parts. In the first, a 2.4 m² vestibule leads to a 7 m² entrance hall, a 14.5 m² bedroom, a 21.3 m² living room and a 13.3 m² kitchen. A 3.7 m² walk-in wardrobe keeps seasonal storage out of the bedroom, while the 5.6 m² bathroom has room for a bath.

The second part has a 2.6 m² vestibule, a 7.6 m² entrance hall, a 14.5 m² kitchen, an 18.9 m² living room, a 13.3 m² study, a 3.2 m² bathroom, a 3.3 m² boiler room and a 1.9 m² storage room. Keeping the boiler room and storage room outside the living rooms leaves the daytime spaces for cooking, meals and conversation.

Upstairs, 67.3 m² forms the private level: four bedrooms of 11.4 m², 13.3 m², 14.4 m² and 14.4 m², a 6.1 m² corridor, a 4.1 m² bathroom and a 3.6 m² staircase. The bedrooms are above the daytime rooms, so evening rest is separated from movement around the entrances and kitchens below.

House construction

• Foundation: monolithic reinforced-concrete strip construction.
• External walls: 375 mm aerated-concrete blocks.
• Floor structure: reinforced-concrete panels.
• Roof: a pitched roof finished with bituminous shingles.
• Storey heights: 2.79 m on the first floor and 2.8 m on the second.

Changes to wall material or openings need to be checked before work begins because they affect the coordinated foundation, wall and floor-panel structure.

What this layout gives in practice

Two entrances give both households a clear boundary from the first step inside. The pair of kitchens and living rooms supports separate daily schedules, while the upper bedrooms concentrate the private rooms on one level. Covered and open terraces add outdoor space without turning either living room into a passage to the other household.

Before placing the house, compare the 20.99 × 13.48 m dimensions with the plot boundaries, access and required clearances. This is more useful than judging the plan from total area alone: the position of the entrances, terraces and two living parts affects how the building meets the site.

Architect's FAQ for Simeinyi

How long does preparation for construction take?

The time depends on the plot, the chosen scope of work and any changes requested before construction. First, the house dimensions and required setbacks are checked against the site. Utility connections and any design adjustments are then reviewed. Only after those decisions are clear can the construction drawings be used as a reliable starting point.

Can the roof covering be changed?

Yes, a different roof covering can be considered, but it should be checked against the roof design before ordering materials. The documented covering is bituminous shingles, and a replacement may affect roof layers, detailing and load assumptions. The architect should confirm the change in the construction documentation rather than leaving it to the site crew.

Is a separate heating design required?

The plan includes a 3.3 m² boiler room, but the exact heating solution depends on the selected equipment and the conditions of the plot. A separate engineering design may be required for that solution. Before construction, the heating system should be coordinated with the boiler room, service routes and the two-household arrangement.

Will the house fit on a narrow plot?

The plan provides overall dimensions of 20.99 × 13.48 m, but those figures alone do not prove that a particular plot is suitable. The required setbacks, access to both entrances and placement of the terraces must be checked together. The architect can assess the site layout before the construction package is ordered.

Can a garage or carport be added?

A garage or carport is not shown in the documented plan, so it should not be assumed as part of Simeinyi. An addition would need a separate check of its position, access and connection to the house structure. The decision is made after reviewing the plot boundaries and the construction changes that the new volume would require.

Is Simeinyi right for two families

Simeinyi is worth considering when two families need separate entrances, five bedrooms, two daytime parts and service rooms within one house. If this arrangement fits the plot and the way both households live, contact the architect to order the ready-made house plan with a full set of construction drawings.
