We've done our best to provide a great selection of split level house plans! These may also be called tri-level home plans. We include floor plans that split the main floor in half, usually with the bedrooms situated a few steps up from the main living areas. A typical layout puts the bedrooms at the highest level, the living room and kitchen at the next level and the family room and garage at the lowest level. The sizes and styles are many and varied, so you can choose your perfect home. How about choosing country or contemporary? For home designs that have two full levels, but a split staircase off the front entry landing, check out our bi-level house plan collection!
