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!

That is probably one of the reasons I want to enable my child to crawl on a single-level floor.Understandable approach. In my experience, our boys grow up in a quite different environment compared to mine, and just because of computer use, they may need more space in their bedroom. Having a few friends over should be possible without the parents getting in the way. Giving the child the largest bedroom is definitely a smart move.allstar83 schrieb:
Many show homes or even the houses of our parents just feel too bulky and large to us. But you’re now building a huge house yourselves. It’s just that you’re not finishing the attic. You’re building a house of over 200 m² (over 2,150 sq ft), but not fully using it.
With a width of 13 meters (43 feet), the house will be about 7 to 8 meters (23 to 26 feet) high... laugh, that’s what my neighbors have with their city villas, while your foundation slab covers about 160 m² (1,720 sq ft). That’s no small amount.
A decent staircase can be easily climbed on all fours. I had to go downstairs. If someone can’t manage the stairs on all fours, they should sleep wherever they fall.
You have about 45 sq m (484 sq ft) with over 2 m (6 ft 7 in).
Your roof height will be approximately 3 m (10 ft) depending on the overhang, plus the roof structure and floor ceiling assembly, at 30 degrees.
Delicate is something else.

At 30 degrees
Delicate is something else Thank you.
I think I really need to have this graphically illustrated for me tomorrow, showing how it looks with different roof pitches. Anything from 30 to 45 degrees would be possible.

But you’re basically building a massive house. Only you’re choosing not to build out the upper floor. You’re constructing a house over 200 m² (2,150 sq ft), but not fully using the space.
With a width of 13 meters (43 feet), the house will be about 7-8 meters (23-26 feet) tall... haha, that’s what my neighbors have with their townhouses, while your foundation slab alone covers around 160 m² (1,720 sq ft). That’s quite a lot. I understand that already. Thanks also for the advice.
For now, our plan is simply not to have an upper floor. That’s the idea behind a bungalow. We also don’t want a double garage or pools that would quickly take up 30-50 m² (320-540 sq ft).
