A multistory residential building provides private access to each unit in order to eliminate breezeways and common stairwells. If a unit is located on the first level, private access is provided by a privately used front door disposed on an end wall of the residential building. Units that are located on the second and third floors are accessed by privately used front doors on internal stairways, wherein said stairways are secluded and inaccessible to other residents and guests. The front doors of the third-floor units are located on intermediate landings wherein access to each landing is provided by a semi-private monumental stairway. The front doors located on the second and third floors are disposed on end wall opposite the end wall having the first floor doors. Accordingly, it is unnecessary to provide breezeways and common stairways connecting all the floors of each building to provide access to each unit.

The garage areas for each unit are positioned essentially adjacent one another, but on a graded surface such that the level of the garage area associated with the lower dwelling unit is approximately one-half story below the level of the garage area associated with the upper dwelling unit. Both dwelling units are on a split-level plan. Each dwelling unit is connected to its respective garage area by an individual passageway or stairway that is unique to the respective dwelling unit and independent of the stairway interconnecting the garage area and the living area of the other dwelling unit. Each of the respective unique stairways interconnects the garage area and the lower level of the split-level dwelling unit, the living, kitchen and dining area thereof, in a manner such that the maximum distance between the level of the garage floor and the lower unit is one story, and the maximum distance between the level of the garage floor and the upper unit is one and one-half stories. Each dwelling unit, being provided with a unique stairway connecting the garage areas and living areas, which stairway is independent of the other dwelling unit and the stairway interconnecting the garage area and living area of the other dwelling unit, ensures the utmost physical privacy to the occupants of each unit, while at the same time permitting stacking of dwelling units to increase the density of such dwelling units per unit area of available land.
