Veranda and terrace: differences

Projects of one-story and two-story houses can contain both a veranda and a terrace, together or separately. The buildings have a fundamental difference:

  • Terrace. Open area; it is often done on a foundation (monolithic or raised on stilts). It can be adjacent to the wall of the house; sometimes it is located on the second floor or on a flat roof. The appearance of a terrace is often determined by local climatic conditions. In the south, this is an open area, often with railings or vegetable fencing. In the middle zone, terraces are equipped with a roof or awning.
  • Veranda. Essentially this is an enclosed terrace. It is adjacent to the house with one or two walls, has a roof and is an enclosed space (most often without heating). They try to glaze it to increase it visually and let in more light.

Layout options for a two-story house

The classic layout of a two-story house involves placing all utility rooms on the ground floor and residential premises on the second. For example, below there is an entrance hall, living room, kitchen and dining room, and above there are bedrooms, a nursery and an office.

The boiler room, storage room and technical rooms are also moved downstairs. It is more convenient to place bathrooms on two floors at once: for example, below is a guest room with a shower, and above is a master floor with a bathtub. If a garage or sauna is attached to the house, they are also immediately included in the overall plan.

Selecting a project: veranda or terrace

Professional builders advise making a choice at the development stage of an architectural project, before materials are determined and estimates are calculated. Subsequent changes will mean additional costs of time and money. It is better to choose a project with a terrace if:

  • The house is being built in a region with hot summers, early springs and long, warm autumns.
  • The size of the land plot allows you to comfortably arrange a terrace without crowding out other areas.

  • The house does not need additional usable space.
  • The family loves spending time outdoors.

A veranda is best for you if:

  • The place where the housing will be built is a region with snowy, frosty winters, prolonged autumn rains and cool, windy summers.
  • The plot is of modest size; the land can be used more rationally.
  • An additional indoor space is a necessary increase in the area of ​​the house.
  • You need a multifunctional space where you can not only relax, but also store things, supplies and equipment.

Roof for a two-story house

All classic types of roofs are suitable for a two-story house: flat, single- and multi-slope, hipped and domed, hip and half-hip, conical, mansard and combined. When choosing, focus on the style of the house and the architectural project as a whole. For example, in order to arrange a living space in the attic, you will have to think through the attic roof in advance.

Sheet roofing materials are easy to install and quick to install, but they are not suitable for complex configurations. This is a very durable corrugated sheet or metal tile with a polymer coating, universal and inexpensive slate, lightweight and unpretentious ondulin.

Piece materials look more impressive and are suitable for roofs of any shape and configuration, but working with them takes longer and is more difficult. These are unpretentious fire-resistant ceramic tiles, cheaper but heavier cement-sand tiles, elite slate, durable but still rare composites.

Soft bitumen coatings with increased thermal insulation properties are not afraid of fungus and ultraviolet radiation. The sheets are hermetically fused, so they do not leak in winter and during rainstorms. They can even be installed on domed roofs. But it is fundamentally important to follow the installation technology so as not to deform the slabs with the burner.

Houses with a terrace: design features

The main thing for which a country house is valued is the opportunity to spend a lot of time outdoors. Projects of houses with a terrace allow you to realize this desire with maximum comfort. The advantages of such buildings are:

  • Low construction cost.
  • Expanding the space of the house. In warm weather, they set up a summer kitchen here, receive guests, sunbathe and sleep.
  • Order. It is easier to maintain cleanliness in your home by leaving your work clothes and changing shoes on the terrace.

Project specifics

Designing a house with a terrace has its own characteristics:

  • The foundation of the house and terrace can be common or built separately. The height of the structure is calculated so that it remains dry.
  • They try to place the terrace on the south side of the house. This is especially convenient in the middle zone, where the canopy is often removable. If the terrace will be used more often in the afternoon, it would be more logical to make it facing west.
  • The extension is positioned so that it offers a picturesque view of the surrounding landscapes or the designer beauty of the site.
  • If the roofing material of a building is too heavy for a terrace roof, it is replaced with a lighter one, while maintaining the overall style.

Arrangement options

The open terrace is perceived as a link between the enclosed space of the house and nature; most often it is located at the entrance. Such buildings fit harmoniously into the surrounding landscape and look attractive from the point of view of design possibilities:

  • Fencing. It can be decorative or protective. In the first case, the fence is low and graceful; Often flowers or ornamental shrubs are planted around the perimeter. Pergolas (canopies formed by several arches) decorated with climbing plants or bright flowers in pots look good as a fence. If the decking of the terrace is located high (from 0.5 to 1 m), reliable fencing with railings is necessary.

  • Roof. The stationary roof can be replaced with a removable awning, retractable awnings or a portable umbrella.
  • The terrace is separated from the house. In this case, they are connected by a path; the path can be decorated with lighting (looks beautiful in the evening), one or several openwork arches, creating the effect of a tunnel.
  • Attic with terrace. The attic, which has access to the terrace, is an ideal place for morning (or evening) tea, watching birds, children and neighbors.
  • House with a high base. An interesting option would be a terrace on a columnar foundation surrounding the building. Supplemented with a roof, it can become a comfortable and spacious place to relax.

Materials for building a terrace

For the construction of country terraces, all kinds of materials are used; the most common buildings are:

  • Wooden terrace. The leaders in terrace construction are wooden terraces. They contain a lot of advantages: quick construction, low financial costs, versatility of execution and the aesthetics of natural wood. Subsequent care can become difficult - in order to protect the tree from the destructive effects of penetrating moisture, it must be regularly treated with impregnation based on oil and antiseptic.

  • In defense of terraces made of brick and slab concrete, it can be said that they are more practical, but require a foundation. Terraces located on the ground are covered with one of the most reliable materials - clinker (high-strength ceramic tiles). On a raised structure, both clinker and ordinary paving slabs are used.
  • Stone terrace. It looks stylish and also needs a solid foundation. A stone with low water absorption (up to 3-5%) is suitable for an open terrace. Optimal rocks are shales, granite and basalt. Sandstone or limestone can be used on roofed buildings.

Small and inexpensive

Small dachas are usually designed using the most inexpensive construction technologies. In our country, this is frame technology and wooden houses. Houses made of porous building blocks (foam concrete, aerated concrete) are in approximately the same category. But they are still not so popular.

Projects of country houses using frame technology

Small country houses are usually built using frame technology. You can build frames yourself, or you can buy ready-made ones - prefabricated ones. These are two technologies that, with minimal investment of money and time, allow you to have good holiday housing.


One-story country house 5*5 meters: project with layout

To optimize the budget for building a country house, look for projects whose foundation on the plan is a rectangle or square. The presence of any protrusions leads to an increase in the price per square meter. Not only do the costs of the foundation increase, the area of ​​the walls increases, and, therefore, the costs for them. The roof is also more expensive - the rafter system is more complex, there are more complex components.

One more point for those who plan to visit the dacha in winter. To prevent warm air from escaping from the house when walking back and forth, it is advisable to make the entrance with a vestibule. If the area does not allow it to be built-in, make an extension. This will greatly reduce fuel consumption and the time it takes to warm up the house.

Beam and log

One of the most common building materials in our country: timber and logs. The advantage is that a small country house can be built very quickly. The downside is that it takes a long time to shrink (from six months to a year, depending on the initial moisture content of the log and climatic conditions). It is not worth carrying out finishing work until the end of the period of active shrinkage, which delays the possibility of operating the building. This does not apply to standing log houses (ready-made kits) or laminated veneer lumber. But the price is significantly (twice) higher for such options.


A small country house made of 4*4 timber - a very simple project

If we talk about the smallest country houses, they measure 4 by 4 meters. Doing less simply doesn't make sense. The layout in this case is quite simple: it’s just one room. They can differ only in their orientation to the cardinal directions, the number and location of windows. Doors can also be located in the middle or on the side. All. The options have run out.

The house will be a little larger in area, 6*4 meters. Here in its “pure” form we have about 22 squares of area, place 14-15 in the previous version. The layout is still not very diverse, but you can already fence off the kitchen area.


Country house plan 6*4

If we talk about optimal costs, then the above country house projects are not the best option. The fact is that it is better to make timber or log cottages 6*6 in plan. The fact is that the standard length of both beams and logs is 6 meters. If the walls of your house are smaller, you need to either look for a non-standard length of suitable length, or saw off the excess from the standard ones. Yes, non-standard costs much less, but you will have to look for it in different sawmills. Even at the largest sawmill, it is more than difficult to find timber or logs 4-5 meters long in sufficient quantities for construction. So you will have to “iron” everything nearby. It is difficult to say what the quality of the material will be. Although, if it doesn’t work for you, you can buy the same non-standard logs for several years, put them in piles, bringing them to operating humidity. Overall, this is a good plan. It just takes a lot of time to implement.

Houses with a veranda: design features

In countries with warm climates, the veranda traditionally serves as a place to relax. In our penates, the possibilities of their use have expanded; Several types of verandas have become widespread, which can be classified:

  • By type of construction. Verandas are designed attached and free-standing.
  • By type of foundation. It can be separate or be part of a permanent structure.
  • By type of use. The veranda can be fully used in winter, for which it will have to be glazed and heated.

The advantages of a project with a veranda include:

  • Possibility of increasing the living space (after insulating the walls) without a significant increase in cost.
  • An additional room protects the house from heat loss during the cold season.

Features of veranda design

Customers often decide to build a house with a veranda under one roof, the design of which is subsequently adjusted. When designing, pay attention to:

  • Location. A veranda is built into a building or attached to it. As with the terrace, the view from the inside is important for this design. A veranda facing the street is not the best option.
  • Usage. If the house has a small area, the veranda can simultaneously serve as a hallway, dining room and relaxation area. In some projects there is a staircase to the second floor.
  • Convenience. The veranda should be adjacent to the wall in which the front door is located, or connected to the kitchen.
  • Glazing. May be permanent or seasonal. Window elements are most often placed around the entire perimeter. For panoramic glazing, ordinary window blocks and double-glazed windows (with both plastic and wooden profiles) are used. The veranda with a large glass area provides excellent internal insolation (sunlight). To protect from sunlight, curtains, blinds, shutters and screens are used.

Arrangement options

  • Various designs of houses with a veranda are in demand on the market. Both verandas adjacent to the facade and those encircling the building are popular. The shape can be rectangular, square, with rounded corners.
  • If the design of a house with a veranda includes a balcony on the second floor, a veranda that follows its shape looks best.

Materials for constructing a veranda

When choosing a material for a veranda, they base it on its role: if the extension is intended to be used year-round, it will have to not only be glazed, but also insulated, and heating must be considered. The material of the veranda should be in harmony with the house; if it is wooden, then wood is used for the veranda. Meet:

  • Veranda made of brick (stone, foam block). The most durable option. A heavy extension requires a solid foundation, the same as under the house. This will protect the veranda from destruction.
  • Veranda made of wood (timber or logs). It has the special charm inherent in natural wood and provides an excellent microclimate. It is decorated with carved panels and elements.

Selection of materials for construction

When choosing a material for building a house, take into account the price, labor costs, thermal insulation and costs for further finishing. Cold walls will cost too much in winter if you don’t take care of insulation, unlike warm ones. Smooth modern materials are easier to paint or sheathe the outside - and this is also a saving.

Traditional brick can last over 100 years, is not afraid of heat and frost, and the installation technology has been worked out to the smallest detail. But it requires a massive foundation due to its weight, and masonry will require time and investment. It is much easier and faster to work with ceramic blocks, but they are expensive and more fragile.

Aerated concrete and expanded clay concrete blocks are a lightweight, practical and warm material with a porous structure and high fire resistance. But they have low bending strength and can crack over time. The closest alternative is more expensive, but durable, load-resistant wood concrete with high insulating properties.

Log houses are comfortable, environmentally friendly, always spectacular and cozy. But it is difficult to work with natural wood; you need to wait for it to shrink and protect it from moisture and pests. Construction from timber is easier and faster, but the main disadvantages still remain.

Various technologies of frame houses, houses made of SIP panels and other prefabricated structures have proven themselves well. It's easy, quick and practical, but can be challenging to customize. Another option for a two-story house is a combined technology: for example, a wooden top on a stone base.
