10 Marla Spanish House
A 10 Marla Spanish house has enough width for the style to breathe: an arched car porch, two or three arched windows on the first floor and a sloping clay-tile roof over part of the front. A good 10 Marla Spanish elevation usually keeps the tiled roof as a frame along the top and over the balcony, with a flat roof behind for tanks and a terrace.
Keep the arches consistent in shape and size, and line them up with the floor plan so they light real rooms rather than blank walls.
- Use one arch shape throughout the front
- Set the main balcony over the porch to shade the entrance
- Hide water tanks behind the sloping roof section

1 Kanal Spanish House
On a 1 Kanal Spanish house the design can spread into a true Spanish villa: several roof slopes at different heights, a long arched verandah, a small tower or stair turret and a landscaped front lawn. The extra width lets you place a courtyard or a covered outdoor sitting area beside the lounge.
With more surface comes more maintenance, so plan access to roof tiles and gutters, and choose hard-wearing paving for the porch and paths.
- Vary roof heights to break up a long front
- Add a verandah or loggia facing the lawn
- Use stone or terracotta paving that handles rain

Materials and finishes that last
Textured exterior plaster gives the hand-finished look of stucco, while clay or cement roof tiles in terracotta tones create the classic roofline. Wrought iron can be replaced with powder-coated mild steel in the same pattern. Wooden doors in sheesham or deodar suit the style well, but need sealing against sun and moisture.
- Lay a waterproof membrane under all roof tiles
- Use rust-proof primer and paint on iron railings
- Pick off-white or cream rather than bright white to hide dust
What changes the budget
The number of sloping roof sections, the amount of arched work, carved woodwork and decorative iron all add time and cost. A front with fewer, well-placed arches and one tiled roof band costs less than one with many curves and slopes, and often looks cleaner too.
