Hello dear forum community,
I am new here and have so far only been a silent reader.
I came across this forum by chance and am now practically addicted. You provide so many constructive suggestions, it’s amazing.
Previously, I didn’t have many concerns about whether a larger bungalow would fit on the plot. I would probably have taken a floor plan to a developer and had it implemented. Whether this would have worked out considering the plot remains to be seen 😉.
The main focus of my thread is to get the opinions of experienced members on whether the bungalow we want can actually be realized or if we have to painfully give up on this dream.
The plot was given to me as a gift from my parents and is located in a purely residential area in a small village about 20 km (12 miles) from Magdeburg.
A printout of the cadastre map including measurements is attached.
The same applies to the prevailing development plan (as far as available).
The plot is relatively large at 1461 sqm (15712 sq ft), but also partly very narrow and irregular. No developer is yet involved and the plot is not bound to a developer.
So far, we only have a rough floor plan idea in our heads, not on paper, since it probably doesn’t make much sense to plan extensively and become fixated on it if it cannot ultimately be realized on the plot.
However, of course, we have specific ideas 🙂
We really want a gable roof bungalow on the plot, preferably without angles, with a maximum living area of 145 sqm (1560 sq ft). It can also be smaller as long as the rooms can be accommodated.
Besides a semi-open kitchen + dining area + living room, we want a bedroom (preferably with a walk-in closet), utility room, bathroom + guest WC, 2 children’s rooms, and 1 office.
We would very much prefer not to move away from the bungalow concept, only if it really cannot be realized, since we have lived for years in an attic apartment with many sloping walls and do not want any more sloped ceilings.
The attic is not planned to be used as living space.
I hope I have chosen the right forum for my thread and listed and attached everything important.
Thank you very much for your support.
Best regards

According to the zoning plan, you are allowed to use the dead-end street. In theory, you could subdivide the property this way. But I wouldn’t do that. I would only design my house so that it can be easily divided later on.I’m really a bit embarrassed to ask, but what exactly do you mean by subdividing?!
Yes, a bungalow would fit perfectly there. Unfortunately, I can’t open the attachments without Wi-Fi, but I’ve seen @icandoit’s photo.
Even if the plots have been combined, I would suggest building only on the right-hand plot on the plan, so that the properties can be separated again later if needed. Even if only conceptually, for the child’s sake.
Do you have any measurements? I would align the building along the northern property boundary and build parallel to it. This would create an interesting area to the south that opens up to the west. That’s my initial impression. Of course, you can place the garage as you have marked it.
Mark out the entire area, or at least the eastern part of the plot, and try playing around with rectangles there. You’ll find more tips in the pinned posts.
