Hello everyone,

we are currently planning an L-shaped bungalow with the following details.
--> It would be great to get some critical feedback on our current (own) design (Image 1).
This design is based on the Town & Country Perfect 111 bungalow (see Image 2).
Due to the specified roof pitch and roof shape, there will likely be an attic space – so far, I am unsure what the best use for it might be.

Thank you very much!

Development plan/restrictions
Plot size: 540 sqm (5800 sq ft)
Desired living area: 120 sqm (1300 sq ft)
Slope: none
Number of floors: L-shaped bungalow
District heating
Underfloor heating
Technical room and pantry combined – accessible from both sides
Roof type: gable roof (mandatory) 30-45 degrees
The gable orientation of the main gable is unfortunately predetermined (long side, see site plan, Image 3)
No basement, bungalow
Number of residents: couple currently with one child (0 years old)
Garage or carport with roof facing the entrance
A well-accessible bicycle storage would be important for us
Building site in Baden-Württemberg (BW)

Thank you very much!

I'm definitely out with the entrance on the side

May I ask why? Our idea was basically to have the entrance covered together with the carport, etc. That was the plan.

I have already explained the reason: this just won’t work!
A carport without side walls might work better, but even then the roofs would interfere with each other. It will definitely be drafty.

The idea was exactly a carport without a side wall, positioned towards the house, somewhat tucked under the house roof. Draftiness wouldn’t bother us. It’s located in the middle of the development.

I am also interested in the stage setup.

Exactly. No established surroundings (vegetation) is a guarantee of problems. Draft is definitely unpleasant and cannot be downplayed.

Unfortunately, the bungalow dimensions are missing... 3.6 m (12 feet) on the garage side with the entrance is probably not practical. I would rather plan for 4 to 5 m (13 to 16 feet). On the other side, it’s at least 3 m (10 feet) anyway (how do you get 2.5 m (8 feet)?).
So that leaves 19.45 - 7 = 12.45 m (64 - 23 = 41 feet).
I’m afraid that won’t work with the last plan you posted. Which house is the base now? Was there no information about wall lengths?

Okay, thanks.
It will be tight with 4 to 5 m (13 to 16 feet) for the carport and covered entrance.

The base is now the Danwood Perfect 131. House length about 14.7 m (48 feet), and maximum width in the L-shaped bay about 13.5 m (44 feet).
