If you've been comparing floor plans for a standard 8 Marla plot and want a 5 bedroom house design that's actually fixed — not a flexible layout you have to negotiate with a design team before you know what you're getting — this 8 marla house plan is built around exactly that brief. On a 30 x 60 house design plot (1,800 sq. ft.), it fits 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, two full kitchens, two lounges and a genuinely usable roof into a clean, two-level modern house.

What makes this home design worth a closer look is that it's a true double story house — ground floor and first floor only — rather than a design that quietly needs a third level to hit its bedroom count. Whether you searched for an 8 marla house plan, an 8 marla house design in Pakistan, or specifically a 5 bedroom home designs option for a 30 x 60 house design plot, this page covers the complete floor-by-floor layout, exact room dimensions, what's included, and what it costs to buy from Ghar Plans.

Ground Floor Layout – 2 Bedrooms, a Drawing Room & a Full Lounge

The ground floor keeps formal and family space apart, the way a genuine modern house should. A dedicated drawing room sits just off the foyer — a proper reception space for guests that doesn't require them to walk through the family lounge. That lounge, at 14'-9" x 18', is large enough to actually live in, not just pass through, and sits beside the staircase lobby that connects every level of the house. Two bedrooms complete this floor: a 13' x 15' bedroom with a 6'-6" x 5' dressing area, and a 13' x 14'-4½" bedroom with its own 4'-7½" x 6' dressing area and an 8' x 6' bathroom — both genuinely private rather than sharing a single family bathroom. A powder room off the foyer covers guests without sending them into the family's private wing, and a 22'-long patio off the bedroom side adds real outdoor space at ground level.

First Floor Layout – 3 More Bedrooms, a Second Kitchen & a Terrace

Upstairs completes the 5 bedroom home designs brief: three more bedrooms, each within reach of an attached bathroom, plus a second full lounge that mirrors the one downstairs almost exactly in size. What sets this floor apart is the second kitchen — a genuinely independent living setup for a joint family, an elder or married child, or simply a household that wants the first floor to function on its own without everyone sharing one kitchen. A terrace running along the back of the floor adds outdoor space that the ground floor's patio doesn't reach, with a view over the surrounding street.

The Roof – Water Tank, Staircase Lobby & a Shaded Sitting Area

Not every double story design gives the roof this much thought. Here, the open roof area is genuinely usable — for laundry, water storage, or simply outdoor space in the evening — and the shaded sitting area at the top of the stairs, roofed in the same slatted timber as the first-floor pergola, gives it a finished look rather than leaving it as bare concrete. Keeping the water tank and stairs up here, rather than adding a third floor of bedrooms, is exactly why this stays an honest double story house instead of a design that blurs into three levels.

8 Marla, 30 x 60 — Plot Size Explained

If you've seen this plan listed under both names, that's why — a 30 x 60 house design and an 8 marla house plan are the same 1,800 sq. ft. plot, just described in feet versus the local land unit. Whether you searched using the dimensions or the Marla figure, this page — and this 8 marla house design in Pakistan — is what you're looking for.

Two Kitchens, Two Lounges — Built for a Growing or Joint Family

A second kitchen isn't a small detail — it's the single biggest practical difference between this home design and a typical single-kitchen 5 bedroom house design. With a kitchen and a lounge on each floor, the first floor's 3 bedrooms can run day to day without anyone needing to come downstairs for basic meals or everyday living space. That's a genuinely useful layout for a joint family sharing one 8 marla house plan, or simply for a household that values privacy between generations.

Why This 8 Marla House Plan Works

A confirmed 5 bedroom house design — 2 on the ground floor, 3 on the first, not an unconfirmed or flexible room count

Two full kitchens — genuine day-to-day independence between floors, ideal for a joint family

Two full lounges — 14'-9" x 18' on both levels, not a single shared living space

A dedicated drawing room — kept separate from the family lounge, right off the foyer

A true double story house — ground and first floor only, with the roof kept as a roof (water tank and shaded seating), not stretched into an ambiguous third storey

Outdoor space on every level — a porch and patio downstairs, a terrace upstairs, and a shaded sitting area on the roof

A striking modern house elevation — natural stone cladding, a vertical wood screen and a wood pergola

Full drawing set included — 2D floor plans for both levels and the roof, plus a 3D front elevation
