Hello colleagues and everyone involved,
We have finally found a plot for our house. What now? How should we best approach this? Architect or general contractor? With or without a basement? What is truly important and what is just unnecessary?
About us: 2 adults + 2 children
Plot size: 934m² (see attachment)
House: either a 5-room corner bungalow (140m² / 1507 sq ft) or a two-story townhouse (160m² / 1722 sq ft)
Attached is a draft (self-made) of the floor plan. What do you think?
Best regards,
soon-to-be homeowners
P.S. This is our first construction project, so please be patient with us!

More to come... don’t put the cart before the horse.If anyone is considering installing, for example, a pellet heating system, having a basement could be beneficial. Just as an example of why it can be helpful to think ahead right from the start.
