Hello to all forum readers,
I have a question for those of you experienced in house construction and floor plan design. Is it possible to fit two residential units on a footprint of 185 sqm (building area approx. 9 m x 20 m (30 ft x 66 ft))? How many square meters are typically lost to walls and staircases?
I have done some preliminary calculations using guideline values and created a rough floor plan. I came to the conclusion that it will be very tight if comfortable room sizes are desired. For this reason, I would really like to hear the assessment of someone with experience.
The goal is to build a 2-room apartment and a 3-room apartment with a balcony or terrace on each floor. The multi-family house is planned to have a total of 6 units (2 full floors plus attic).
Do you think it is feasible to build approximately 78 sqm (840 ft²) and 65 sqm (700 ft²) on one level within a floor area ratio of 185 sqm?
Best regards,
Karl

The house is detached (town with 25,000 inhabitants, Rhine-Main metropolitan area), building services are installed in the basement, and bicycle parking spaces are planned outdoors.
The size of the stairwell is indeed a problem and has been designed small due to space constraints.

I tried to stack two residential units in this thread https://www.hausbau-forum.de/threads/grundriss-haus-mit-2we-zur-vermietung.16693/page-3#post-148696. Just to give an idea of the proportions:
Building footprint = 107.2 m² (1154 sq ft)
Living area ground floor = 70.5 m² (759 sq ft)
I would just accept the staircase layout as it is for two residential units, but not for six units.
Note that a small technical room is included in the area here.
