    For any Americans, the 1st floor in Australia (and many other countries) is equivalent to the second floor in America (hence it being above the garage)

      I hate that convention. No, I was using the first floor in the American waysort of.

      The apartment is on the side of the hill. The lowest level on which apartments are placed is at ground level at the front, but one storey up at the back.

          Pretty common in hilly areas in my country and especially my state. For my house, you have to climb about fifteen stairs to go in the front door and the back door is ground level. It’s a small one storey house.
