ᐅ House with Integrated Apartment, IBG Floor Plan Example Explanation?

Hello,

We (I mean my wife, our child) are planning to move in together with her parents (my parents-in-law).

I have looked into various options for living together. It is important to me that there are two separate apartments. We want to live together, but each with their own privacy. 😀

At the moment, the idea I have is a house with a secondary apartment (in-law unit) as the most cost-effective solution. The secondary apartment would be somewhat smaller than the main apartment in the house, but it should be more than enough for the parents since they currently live in 25 cm (10 inches) 🙁.

I have a catalog from IBG Haus with an example floor plan, but I can’t really picture it clearly, and the description is unfortunately very sparse.

Can someone briefly explain if a house with a secondary apartment has two separate lockable apartments (only one main entrance though, to save connection costs)?

Are there other similar options?

Best regards

Hi,

with most sample floor plans, there is still a lot that can be changed. If the company also has a show home, you could take a look at it!

When more than one generation lives under one roof, it is especially important that everyone has their own separate space.

You can do it however you want. The connection fees won’t change because of that. A second entrance door will just cost a few euros. Of course, you can also do it inside with a lockable apartment door.

Make sure to look at as many providers as possible and compare their service descriptions carefully. If possible, use the sample building specification from consumer protection and have the providers fill it out.

They don’t like doing this – but you should simply insist on it.

Hi,

There are many building centers where you can visit model homes, which is much more informative than just having a plan.

Hi,
having a separate apartment is definitely the best solution for the parents-in-law, because who wants to be on top of each other all day? I believe it also allows for separation of costs, like heating and electricity, etc.
