Dear fellow contributors,
I’m sharing our first attempt at the floor plan. Unfortunately, I can’t fill out the list because copying it over on my phone doesn’t work properly, sorry.
Key data:
5 children between 0 and 11 years old
2 adults in their mid-thirties
Plot of about 900 sqm (9700 sq ft), facing north
Building window edge on the street side: 17.35 m (57 ft)
Sloped site; within the building window, the ground rises about 2 m (7 ft) over 10 m (33 ft) from front to back
We want 5 small children’s bedrooms, a slightly larger office for working from home, a master bedroom, three showers, three toilets, a bathtub, and access to the garden through the living room on the upper floor. One wall in the children’s rooms should be removable later.
The attic is walkable.
We are allowed to build 2 full stories, with a ridge height of about 12 m (39 ft) and an eave height of 11.6 m (38 ft).
We would prefer a hip roof.
The current drawing is 9.5 by 11 m (31 by 36 ft), but we would like to have around 195 to 205 sqm (2100 to 2200 sq ft) of living space later; garage or storage will be added.
The back wall of the house is embedded up to about 2 m (7 ft) into the slope.
I will try to attach a rough overview of the plot.

A sliding door would also take up some floor space in the bedroom, which would be a shame considering the available space. The door slides into the wall, right, or were you referring to the additional 10cm (4 inches) wall thickness?

I need to check on that.I don’t think it’s possible to move the sink anymore because there is no drain there, and the plan would have to be redrawn. Is that correct?

...because there is no drain there and the plan might have to be redrawn. Or not? Asking doesn’t cost anything at first.

Yvonne is right, but if the washbasin is right next to the toilet, you have to be careful to keep the toilet lid down. Otherwise, in a rush, your hair clip might easily fall into the toilet. Nowadays, there are toilet lids that only need a gentle tap to close automatically. I once gave my husband a clear instruction about that – and it works! [emoji2]
So, in our case, the lids are definitely needed to keep the bowl looking as it should. With toilets next to the washbasin or near a window, it also has the advantage that you can get ready while sitting down.
