Two-storey house on a 700 m² plot, renovated in 2022, Shkozet

A private two-storey house at Shkozet in Durrës, seven hundred metres from the overpass. The plot is 700 m². The ground floor is 140 m² and holds a garage and a storeroom; the upper floor is 180 m² and is the living accommodation - a living room with a separate kitchen, three bedrooms and a bathroom. The house was renovated in 2022, is roofed and walled, and the garden and yard are private. The ground floor is the interesting part. As it stands it is utility space, but it is 140 m² of it, at street level, behind its own wall - it converts to a second dwelling, a workshop or a business premises without touching the family's floor above. That optionality is most of what distinguishes this house from a flat of similar money. What one bathroom for three bedrooms means in daily use is worth thinking through, and with a ground floor this size the room to add a second is there. Shkozet is a settled residential quarter with everything to hand, close to the Durrës-Tirana road.
