Hello dear forum,
I have been a quiet reader for a long time and would now like to present our design for a single-family house.
The plot is already reserved but not yet serviced, so I don’t have all the required information yet; however, we have already started experimenting. It is plot number 21 in the development area.
I have already taken many of your forum suggestions into account. For example, the walk-in closet is now accessible from the hallway so that sleeping persons are not disturbed, and the rooms can still be swapped flexibly without constantly running through a child’s room. We did not position the kitchen directly next to the terrace, but the path is kept very short through the dining area (in the drawing, the dining table is fully extended; normally it is only 2 m (6.5 ft) long). Since there is not much space for a wardrobe in the hallway (except under the stairs), the walk-in closet is large enough to accommodate clothing for more than two people. The attic is accessible and offers additional space.
The drawing completely omits the garage, which is planned to be 6 x 9 m (20 x 30 ft) and adjoins the house on the left with access to the utility room. For garden tools etc., the garage is deep at the rear, providing 6 x 3 m (20 x 10 ft) of space. The utility room is also intended to serve as a small pantry / beverage cellar, so it is quite spacious and has direct access to the kitchen.
Most of the furniture shown is already owned or planned.
So, I look forward to your feedback and thank you in advance for your contributions!
One more addition: unfortunately, I did not include a north arrow in the drawings, but the house will be built 3 m (10 ft) from the street boundary along the building envelope, so the entrance faces northeast. Is that clear? ops:

Hausbauer127 Jun 2017 12:29Two quick points of criticism:
- The entire living, dining, and kitchen area feels simply too small to me. A few more square meters would make it seem more spacious.
- On the upper floor, the access to the walk-in closet from the hallway makes little sense to me. Why is the room not accessible from the bedroom?

Hello HB 1, why don’t you read through some of the threads? The walk-in closet accessed from the hallway is often recommended here because with your suggested layout, you would frequently have to walk past the sleeping area whenever you need to go back to the closet for something you forgot...

Hello HB 1, take a look through a few topics. The walk-in closet accessed from the hallway is often recommended here because, with your proposed layout, you repeatedly have to pass by the sleeping area whenever you need to go back to the closet for something forgotten... An alternative would be to have two doors. But looking at my morning routine, the closet should actually be adjacent to the bathroom, which in turn should be directly accessible from the bedroom. Then, from the closet, I would enter the hallway.
Hehe – if you follow the assembly line idea to the end, the breakfast bar would then be placed right next to the driver's door.

Although I have learned that electronic devices can be used to ensure that both doors are never open or closed at the same time. (and just think about how often, without such devices or a second bathroom, at least one door would be left unlocked)

(and just think about how often, without such devices or a second bathroom, at least one door would be left open)Well, with an en suite bathroom, I would assume there is a second bathroom for children or guests. Otherwise, I would place the ONE bathroom near the hallway.
