Two-storey pool house in Mardakan: 5 layouts that work
On 3–5 sot, going two-storey gives 60% more living area for the same building footprint. But not every layout is equally comfortable — five formats proven by our deals, and three to avoid.
1. «Sea side» — bedrooms upstairs with a view
Ground floor: living, kitchen, pool terrace, guest bathroom. Upstairs: 3–4 bedrooms with balconies. Kids get a quiet floor; adults host below.
2. «Master floor» — parents on the ground
Ground floor: master with walk-in and en-suite, kitchen-living, terrace. Upstairs: 2–3 bedrooms for kids, shared bathroom. Ideal for older parents and active children.
3. «Investment» — two separate blocks
Ground floor: a standalone 60–80 m² apartment with its own entrance (rental or relatives). Upstairs: owner's home. One plot, two income streams.
4. «Open plan»
Ground floor without internal walls: 60–100 m² kitchen-living-dining as one volume with floor-to-ceiling windows onto the pool. Upstairs: bedrooms. Costly but the flagship for premium rental.
5. «Classic with patio»
U-shape with an inner courtyard-patio; all key windows face inward. Pool sits in the yard's centre. Maximum privacy, minimum summer wall heating.
Universal rule: bedrooms face north or east; living and terrace face south or west. In Mardakan the July sun angle makes this critical.
3 layouts to avoid
- Bedrooms above unshielded kitchen-living — sound and smells travel.
- Second-floor bathrooms without waterproofing — leaks in 3–5 years.
- Long corridor with 4+ doors — 15% dead space, dark.
