"Half story" means that portion of a building under a gable, hip or mansard roof, the wall plates of which on at least two opposite exterior walls are not more than four and one-half feet above the finished floor of each story. In the case of one-family dwellings, two-family dwellings and multiple family dwellings less than three stories in height, a half-story in a sloping room shall not be counted as a story.
