Explore This 40x60 House Plan Designed for Rental Purpose in Jigani — A Modern Multi-Unit Residence Perfect for Urban Living

Final view of Mr Kumar’s gated community residence

Introducing a multi-unit residence, a beacon of urban smart living with unique features and design. Our clients approached us with a vision to create a multi-unit residence for a 40x60 house plan. This modern house, set in bustling city surroundings, is not just another residential project. We’ve incorporated unique features and design elements that set it apart, aiming to optimise space in a practical and resourceful manner, ensuring privacy and comfort for each unit.

Project description:

Plot dimension: 40’x60’ plot home

Location: BSR Akruthi Green Wood, Jigani

Type: Gated community residence

Project breakdown:

There are six residential units on the 2,400 sq.ft. Plot home.

• 3BHK and 2BHK residential units on the ground floor
• Four studio apartments on the first floor
• Common Areas: Both floors have lobby areas and corridors for easy, private access to every unit.

We provide the corridors to access each unit on the eastern side of the 40x60 plot.

Design Process

We bring in our ideas in the form of zoning layouts for the clients based on their requirements in the north-facing house. Our design process involves a thorough understanding of the client’s needs, the site’s characteristics, and the local building regulations.

The first zoning option shows the basic layouts with circulation and ventilation.

The clients aligned with this option as it was feasible for them in the 40x60 plot home. However, a few changes were made in the discussions that followed. The circulation core in the front gives a good opportunity to explore the elevations with the staircase. As this staircase follows the terrace, we have many options and space to explore with various cladding materials and other elevation elements.

The first floor of the same zoning option shows the single-bedroom units arranged one after the other.

For comparison, let us explore the other zoning options, too. Here is the parent’s bedroom project along the front. Also, the single units on the first floor are misaligned towards the front, unlike the first floor in the previous option.

The first option was feasible for the 40 x 60 house plan without compromising the setback. Also, the elevation we developed after the planning stage looked interesting because of the staircase element on the northwest. The corridors and lobby in the east allow greens to be included in the balcony parts.

Ground floor areas

The ground floor is home to two spacious family units, including a 3BHK and a 2BHK, each designed with privacy and natural ventilation as the top priorities. Also, we fit in balconies and decks wherever possible.

The 3BHK unit is a spacious abode featuring a large living room and three bedrooms — a parent bedroom, a master bedroom, a guest bedroom, a well-lit kitchen, and ample storage, ensuring a comfortable family. Adjacent to it is the 2BHK unit, which is space for a mid-sized family with a small kitchen, master bedroom, and a guest bedroom.

Large windows and balconies bring in plenty of daylight and create a subtle connection between the indoors and outdoors.

First-floor areas

The first floor houses four modern studio units tailored for young professionals, students, or short-term rentals. Each studio has a kitchenette, a private bathroom, and space for rest and productivity.

A corridor and lobby area tie the studios together, offering access without compromising privacy. The layout ensures each studio benefits from natural light and ventilation, and strategic placement avoids any direct visual overlap between units.

Conclusion

This project exemplifies how architectural planning can make multi-unit residences possible and desirable for a 40x60 house plan. Private homes, rentable studios, and shared circulation spaces create a practical and welcoming micro-community. This is also an example of how our designers adapt to the changing urban needs and calculate to accommodate them for the clients, ensuring that your investment is future-proof and adaptable to evolving market demands.
