What do you not like? Why?

If you had to give up, which details or extensions

Why did the design become like this? e.g.
A mix of our own ideas and floor plans from the internet and acquaintances.
What could be done differently or better?
Do you have any further ideas?
Thank you very much in advance for your thoughts.

Who estimated the price and what is supposed to be included?
$285k for 180 m² (1,937 sq ft) is hardly achievable, even with a lot of own labor.A Swedish-style house with solid rear masonry is not the cheapest construction method either. I’d expect construction costs well above €500,000.H
Hausbautraum2012 May 2021 14:30We are paying significantly more for a smaller house with a lot of self-construction work than you are. I immediately wondered where this price could come from. Especially considering the current situation...

But the chimney is there. Opposite the bedroom door in the hallway.
I'm just not sure if it is exactly above the ground floor chimney. It should actually fit. Possibly distorted a bit when converting from PDF to JPEG.

Nice house – I would like to build it for € 285,000 as well. But that won’t work. Already asking grandma for a loan...
183 sqm (1,970 sq ft) x € 2,500 (doesn’t look like a standard build) = € 460,000 + € 50,000 additional building costs + kitchen = well over € 500,000 I will do everything with separate contracts and some work myself.
But first, I need to optimize the floor plan.
Here in the north, fortunately, prices are not yet that high.

So don’t get too hung up on the floor plan if the house is not affordable.You have €285,000 for 183 m² (1,970 ft²) = €1,560 per m² (about $145 per ft²) all in. That is not feasible, especially with the current sharp price increases and including additional building costs.
