All square footage is calculated from the outside face of the brick/stone including all areas that have a full ceiling height.
Custom Two-Story Homes Built to Fit Pittsburgh’s Tightest Lots
Narrow in-town lots, steep grades, and tight setbacks are the norm in neighborhoods like Mt. Lebanon, Fox Chapel, and Squirrel Hill, not the exception.
A two-story home solves that. You get the square footage without the sprawling footprint. Less site prep, less grading, and a foundation that works with a lot a ranch home never could.
Building up instead of out also means you can fit more house on a smaller, more affordable lot. That opens up locations that would otherwise be off the table, without asking you to compromise on space.
Two story homes are one of the most common designs in Pittsburgh, and Costa has built many of them in Pittsburgh itself and surrounding neighborhoods.
Why Choose a Custom Two-Story Home?
A custom two-story home separates the way you live from the way you sleep. Bedrooms sit upstairs, away from the noise of a busy kitchen or a movie night downstairs. Everyone gets distance from everyone else, without adding square footage you don’t need.
As an experienced two-story home builder, we know the math works in your favor too. One foundation and one roof cover two levels of living space, which means more square footage per dollar than a single-level home on the same size lot.
A custom two-story home also gives you room to grow. An unfinished bonus room upstairs today becomes a fourth bedroom, a playroom, or a home office tomorrow, without a major remodel.
And in a city built on hills, the second floor is where the view lives. Working with a 2-story home builder who understands Pittsburgh’s terrain means your upstairs bedrooms and bonus rooms can catch valley or skyline sightlines that a single-level home on the same lot would miss.
Combine all of this with the New Life® Process, our proprietary custom home building process, and you’ll be in the home you’ve dreamed of at a price you’ll like.
What Floor Plan Works for You?
All three come from the same build quality and design process. The right one depends on your lot, your budget, and how you live.
Choose a Ranch home if you want single-level living or your lot isn’t suited to a tall footprint.
Choose a 1.5-Story home if you want a primary suite on the main floor with upstairs bedrooms for kids or guests, in a smaller footprint than a full ranch.
Choose a Two-Story home if you want the most square footage per foot of lot and you’re building for a growing family that doesn’t mind stairs.
