one story VS two story

[NotCranky]

For the first year of our first child we had a two story and I wouldn’t choose that if there are good options. I have always liked being on the same floor with our young children all the time. I still like it as they grow up. I can also see where some separation of child from common areas, aided by two floors, could have some benefits as they get to be teenagers.

True, one story are preferable both for very young and very old.

One story homes seem to have higher PPSF. It may be good for the resale, I guess.

I lived in a 2-story house all of my life until I bought a 1-story house last year. Generally, I really like a 1-story house and would prefer it for any future purchase; however, there are a few drawbacks.

Pros:

1) 1-story house is easier to get around
2) less wasted space on stairs,etc.
3) don’t have to worry about kids falling down the stairs
4) appeals to older/mobility challenged individuals

Cons:
1) I used to leave windows open on the 2nd story but that is much harder with a 1-story house
2) Someone could be standing right outside our bedroom window

One thing to be aware of is that our 1-story house is not completely level (the entry is slightly elevated) which would make it impossible to get around in a wheelchair. If this is the case for the house you are considering, you may not get as many mobility-challenged people interested in your house at resale.
