The term duplex apartment in Serbia represents a special part of a residential building (apartment building) with two levels connected by a staircase.

Duplex apartments are most often found on the top floors of residential buildings and have spacious terraces with open views.

ADVANTAGES OF A DUPLEX APARTMENT:

1. SPACIOUSNESS OF THE APARTMENT – duplex apartments are more spacious than other simple apartment structures. The reason lies in the fact that most duplex apartments have a separate spacious living room on the first floor, while the residential part with bedrooms and bathrooms is separated on a separate second floor. This organized space allows each household member to have their own corner and privacy.

2. FINANCIAL ADVANTAGE – Apartments on two floors, as we mentioned, are most often built on the top floors, often in the attic. Many people do not like attics, so it is always uncertain how duplexes will move in the market, which is why the price is lower.

However, this is not always the case. There are apartments in attics that take your breath away, and they are classified as luxury real estate.

3. SPACIOUS TERRACE – one of the key advantages of two-story apartments is also large terraces.

On a large terrace, you can gather friends, family, organize a summer lunch, socialize with friends, or simply relax with a good book, coffee, or a glass of wine.

4. NATURAL LIGHT IN THE APARTMENT – Since they are located at the highest point of the building, attics receive a lot of natural light.

DISADVANTAGES OF A DUPLEX APARTMENT:

1. HIGH FLOORS – duplex apartments in older buildings on high floors can pose a problem due to the lack of an elevator in the building or a possible malfunction that requires you to exert additional physical effort to reach the apartment after every shopping trip or walk.

2. STEEP UNSAFE STAIRS – due to the smaller area of the duplex apartment, it is necessary to reduce the space that the staircase will occupy, which compromises their safety and proper angle. This can especially pose a problem for the movement of small children and elderly people.
