Hello. My partner and I are planning to build a house soon. This is the first draft from the planner at the construction company. The design was created based on our specifications (a hand-drawn sketch from us).
Gable roof, single-family house, no basement, 1.5 stories, currently 2 people in the household; later 3-4.
The terrace is planned to be adjacent to the kitchen and living area, mainly facing west. Do you think it would be better to have it facing south instead? Possibly wrap around the corner near the living area?
Our requirement was to have direct access from the garage/carport into the utility room, and from there directly into the kitchen.
- Is the size of the utility room sufficient? All the building services should be housed there. Additionally, the utility room should also serve as a kind of pantry. Laundry tasks will also be done there.
- What do you think about the downstairs bathroom? Showering directly in front of the window doesn’t seem ideal^^.

It should be about 20m (65 feet) wide at the front, what do you think?
Given this location, I would definitely orient the bay window towards the garden. Honestly, no one really cares about the staircase on the north side. But for the children's rooms or the walk-in closet in the southwest, I'd definitely go for extra height.

I admit, in this rather messy forum, I’m not in the mood to scroll back and find the relevant floor plan, etc. right now. see #14
