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!

You are at least as tall as a modern two-story house with a flat roof, if not even one with a hip roof.
Take a look at it yourself.I’m looking forward to tomorrow. ThanksSo, a second child is planned, and it has become clear that a second child’s room should be somewhat larger than 9 sqm (97 sq ft).
Here, you would need to try to create two rooms of approximately 12 sqm (129 sq ft) each from the existing 15 sqm (161 sq ft) and 9 sqm (97 sq ft) rooms:

We simply do not want an upper floor at this stage. That’s the whole idea behind a bungalow.I understand that. But your argument is exactly the opposite. I’m saying: then look for a different plot if you don’t want to build a large house. With a roof pitch of over 30 degrees and also a corner design, the building will end up the size of a two-family house. And you’re just turning a blind eye to that.

I understand that already. But you are arguing exactly the opposite. And I’m saying: then look for another plot if you don’t want to build a large house. Because with a roof pitch of over 30 degrees, especially with a corner design, it will be roughly the size of a two-family house. And you’re choosing to ignore that. Wait. Just to clarify. The roof is not supposed to extend over the L-shaped corner. That would create a secondary gable, possibly with a different roof style. So far, the building authority has not specified any requirements for this. This means the main section of the roof ridge would be about 14.5m × 9m (48 feet × 30 feet) or so.

You’ve been showing us an L-shaped house all along. The entire house will obviously have a roof.
And no matter how it looks: you’re building more cubic meters than your parents probably have.
But what do I know... I guess you don’t want to understand.

But what can I say... I don’t think you want to understand that. The roof won’t be fully extended around the corner.
I can’t imagine having more volume than the old houses with two full floors of 200sqm (2153 sq ft) plus basement plus covered double garage plus conservatory.
I’m hoping for a draft from the planner this week. Then I’ll probably “understand” it better.
