Three-Storey Living on the Rise as Buyers Seek Space, Flexibility and Smarter Design

Rivers Edge in Wimborne is showcasing the best of modern multi-level homes.
We’re shining a spotlight on the growing appeal of three‑storey homes, as buyers increasingly look for properties that offer more flexibility, privacy and room to grow.
Our award‑winning riverside development where homes start from £700,000 has homes with multi-level living that is ideal for families, home‑workers and those wanting adaptable space for changing lifestyles.
Philippa Vickery, sales and marketing director at Wyatt Homes said: “Three‑storey layouts offer significantly more usable space without increasing the home’s footprint. This makes them ideal for growing families needing extra bedrooms, multi-generational living and those wanting a dedicated work from home space.
“At Rivers Edge, many residents have already embraced this flexibility. The additional floor has allowed visiting family to have their own bedrooms, playrooms and en suites – creating a sense of privacy and comfort for everyone.”
For one customer, the benefits of three-storey living have already become a reality after discovering the properties offer a practical solution to modern living.

Elizabeth Percy says her three-storey home offers her luxury and huge flexibility when her family come to stay: “My grandchildren have their own bedroom and playroom and my daughters and their partners have their own bedroom and ensuite. I also have a study/bedroom too.” Watch Elizabeth’s video here: https://youtu.be/ugEvqsRbOh0?si=K3N_tcHQEeHkJXs7
Three‑storey homes naturally create separation between social and private spaces, with living, working and relaxing often happening under one roof. This zoning helps households balance busy routines, without compromising on style or comfort.
“The upper floors in the three-storey homes at Rivers Edge, benefit from enhanced natural light and far‑reaching views. This is especially striking thanks to its riverside setting, proximity to green open spaces and the picturesque character of Wimborne Minster,” added Philippa.
Set along Julians Road and within walking distance of Wimborne town centre, Rivers Edge offers a collection of 4-, 5-and 6-bedroom homes, each built to our renowned high specification. Prices start from £700,000, with homes ready to move into.
Rivers Edge is open daily from 10am–5pm. To book an appointment or explore available homes, call 01202 886598 or visit wyatthomes.co.uk.
