Hello everyone,
I was advised to post my floor plan here, as there are always good suggestions in this forum.
We have a plot of just under 775 sqm (8340 sq ft) and need at least 3 parking spaces in total – 1.5 per residential unit. Since street parking is not possible in front of the plot, a garage or parking space on the property is very important.
The building envelope measures 12×18 m (39×59 feet).
We are planning a ground floor with one upper floor and a partial basement, with a single-sloped roof.
The current driveway faces north, and the terraces and living room are oriented to the south.
Currently, two adults in their early 30s with one child, more children planned, plus two people in their mid-50s living in the granny flat.
The granny flat should be entirely on the ground floor for age-appropriate living and must have room in the bedroom for a large wardrobe and another room for guests or an office.
The basement will be used for storage and technical equipment including the heating system.
Our key requirements are:
- at least one garage
- bathroom and toilet with windows
- storage room accessible from both living areas
- laundry room on the upper floor
- basement access from the garage
- pantry close to the kitchen
- 3 children’s bedrooms
- separate bathrooms for parents and children
The current design comes from the architect.
I’m unsure about the layout of the ground floor – possibly too much hallway and the living/dining area might be too small. On the upper floor, I wonder if the size of the children’s rooms is appropriate compared to the master bedroom and walk-in closet.
I look forward to your suggestions and ideas! Thank you all!

I couldn’t find the "Beiplan." That’s somewhat disappointing to me now.

No basement – instead an attic. Knee wall 0 / 45° gable roof. Yep. That’s roughly how I imagined it. If you want to comply with the building regulations / planning permission, the ridge direction just needs to be rotated by 90°, but I don’t see any issues with your floor plan because of that.

If you want to comply with the development plan / zoning plan, you only need to rotate the ridge direction by 90°, but I don't see any problems with your floor plan because of that. And this as well! The development plan / zoning plan seems full of surprises – at least regarding this thread.
However, I am afraid the original poster is gone and already looking for alternative plots...
Hello everyone,
I’m still here after all. Although the plot has its flaws, we are grateful to have it and, of course, want to make use of it.
Thank you very much for your suggestions. Today we have another appointment with the architect. I also found the note that the building line may be exceeded by 2 m (6.5 feet) due to a conservatory.
I will, of course, answer all the questions as well.

If you want to comply with the local development plan, you just need to rotate the ridge direction by 90°. That blocks the sunlight from the kids’ room. So, let’s spice up the roof a bit:

What was the budget again?
