Charleston “Single House” vs “Double House”
Single House architectural style is a home built one room wide with double covered piazzas or porches. Although it can be many rooms long and multiple stories high, it is typically no wider than 10 to 25 feet with the length of the house perpendicular to the street. The house sits asymmetrically along one side of the lot line allowing most of the undeveloped area to be used as a single side yard.
Double Houses face full length to the street and are characterized by a central hallway running through the house with four rooms on each floor. Two in the front and two in the back with living areas assigned to the first floor and bedrooms on the second. It too has covered piazzas running along the length of the house.
