Welcome to our free blueprint of a 2-level wood deck design and plans.

The 2-level is a popular design because it’s both pleasing to the eye and can be very functional. One or two steps creates 2 distinct sections of the deck.
Often the upper section, which is closest to the house, is a dining/grilling (if large enough an outdoor kitchen) area and the lower section is used as an outdoor living room.
While our design is 2 levels, you don’t need to stop there. Some people create tiered decks with 3 or 4 levels. These can be intricate decks but look incredible when down. The image on which we based this 2 level deck plan can be found on Zillow DigsTM.
The one downside to multi-level decks is that you must be careful about the edge. It’s easy to forget and then while sitting in a chair, push it backwards and tumble backwards. That said, in my view, the added dimension of a second level plus the demarcation creating 2 separate sections is well worth it.
If you live in an area where you can enjoy the outdoors much of the year, it’s worth investing in a large deck that can accommodate grilling, dining and sitting areas.
