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!

13.42 m (44 feet) width .. that is necessary for the rooms shown, which means an additional 6 m (20 feet) to the right and left of the house. So the base is not suitable.

And one more question remains: Why is the second children's bedroom always so small? Are you only planning for one child? And do you keep the 9m² (97ft²) room as a spare, guest room, or office?

Having a discussion here is quite tedious. You do not answer the questions that are asked of you.

It was actually supposed to be the second kid’s room. But you’re right, we compared and it should be at least 11sqm (118 sq ft). Thanks

6 m (20 feet) is incorrect. In Baden-Württemberg, the required distance from the property boundary would be 2.5 m (8 feet) on each side.

I agree. What is wrong with the floor plan from post 4 as a starting point? The gable roof fits perfectly there, so why does it have to be this pronounced L shape?

That’s a very good suggestion! Thank you. It works well except for one of the children's bedrooms.

We just really liked the L shape with the second gable and the essentially courtyard-like terrace.
