Hello dear forum,

Since I don’t have any software to draw the floor plans myself, I would appreciate it if you could lend me a hand. It’s quite difficult to quickly sketch something on paper and immediately know the 2m (6.6 ft) ceiling height in the attic and the room area, so I would be glad if you could help me out.

About the building information:


Satellite image of a property with yellow boundary lines and blue marking


The left side (when looking from the front) must be built attached to another semi-detached house (see picture).
Building envelope: 12m (39 ft) deep / 10m (33 ft) wide (blue box)
Gable roof with 40° pitch

Basement: a separate apartment but with its own bedroom.
Ground floor: pantry and office/guest room
Upper floor: possibly an additional children's bathroom and main bathroom (for the parents) on the upper floor.

Thank you for your ideas/questions/suggestions,...

That was a Hanse Haus, Variant Haus 25-166 including a granny flat.
Adjustment is:
change 10.6 x 9.3 meters (35 x 31 feet) to 10 x 12 meters (33 x 39 feet) and the gable roof from 25° to 40°.

And change from a detached single-family house to a semi-detached house. That does not work like this.

As mentioned before, the help you are asking for will not be provided without contributing your own effort.

Draw the desired floor plan, provide the numbers, and fill out the profile as much as possible.

Then, the floor plan can certainly be reviewed and optimized.

Oh, I forgot to mention. This is a sloped plot.

A minor detail. 😉

The blue window is already completely at basement level, so no further excavation should be necessary.

Yes, nice. From where to where does the slope descend within the building area, and how steep is it?

On the plan you can see the double garage marked in yellow, which already exists. It has a basement.

Who puts a basement under a garage? Fascinating! What do you do there? Breed spiders?

So the entrance could be on the right.

Where is the driveway? Are there already parking spaces? What about an entrance on the east side?

Number of floors: 2.5 (including basement), 1.5 above street level
Roof type: 40° pitched roof

What is the knee wall height? Maximum house height and height of neighboring buildings?

I would just like to get a feel for it

For what purpose? If you like the Hanse House, just design it with a 40-degree roof pitch or have an architect plan it. You have your two-story design, and there’s always room for a basement underneath.

Adjust 10.6 x 9.3 to 10 x 12 ...

Who decides the dimensions? If Katja, Kerstin, or I adjust the house to these measurements, in my opinion, you won’t be able to “read” anything more from it — it will be 60 cm narrower but 2.7 m (9 feet) wider. You should ask yourself whether you really need the 10 x 12 m (33 x 39 feet) size if there is a basement below. You don’t have to maximize every available building plot 😉
And it’s new to me that you have to use the entire building envelope / plot allowance.
