Duplexes are becoming more popular as they provide a side for the owner to live in and a side to either rent out or have an in-law live in.

The Two Blue is just such a unit. While each side is a mirror of the other, they provide an excellent use of space and give each family a three-bedroom home and a great room in the living and dining room areas. Each unit has 1,144 square feet of living space.

The exterior of the Two Blue is contemporary and clean looking. The garages are in the front, absorbing the noise from the street, while the master suites and other bedrooms all run along the outside walls away from the other living unit.

There is a covered walk up to the front doors. Facing the kitchen, there is a divider wall between bedroom 3 and the kitchen.

Each unit also has two bathrooms. One is between the two bedrooms and convenient for use by guests and the second bath is connected to the master suite. It is at the rear of the suite and has a single sink, extra counter and a tub.

Each unit of the duplex has its own utility room with a door opening off the entry. Each garage is designed to hold one car.
