Hello dear community,

First of all, a big thank you from me as well! You provide helpful information in so many areas that is simply invaluable.

We are in the final planning stages, and your opinion would be very important to us!

Apologies if I haven't included all necessary or important details. Please feel free to ask if anything is missing. Otherwise, we look forward to your feedback.

Details and our wishes:
- No basement
- Street side faces east
- Our garden is on the west side
- We want the children’s rooms to face the garden
- Washing machine and dryer on the upper floor
- Double garage 6 x 6 m (20 x 20 ft) attached directly to the house
- Side entrance to the house
- Optional kitchen in L-shape (but then the kitchen would face the street, and the office would face the garden)
- And stair landing! However, we were not able to create a good room layout combined with the side entrance
- Ground floor height 3 m (10 ft)
- Upper floor height 2.8 m (9 ft)
- A 3 m (10 ft) glass sliding element with the red line will be installed facing the kitchen

I hope I didn’t forget anything important. Thanks in advance for your feedback.

I would place the large window at the dining table. The door by the kitchen is fine.

The entrance to the street and the garage could also be closer to the street.

Where is the site plan?

(and now I have to add filler words...)

Okay, they’ve become unnecessary now...
And another straight staircase! 🙄
The entrance area didn’t turn out well. The door almost hits the stairs. Then again, a long (narrow) hallway.
Once more, no light in the upper floor hallway. Access to living/dining/kitchen. Long distances to the kitchen.

The walk-in closet behind the bedroom is awkward.


Thank you very much for your feedback. As mentioned above, we also prefer a concrete landing staircase, built with masonry. It’s just not quite as easy to implement with our room requirements and the side entrance to the house. Lighting is another important point, especially on the upper floor. We will move the door in the laundry room to the right and add an extra window. We are also considering swapping the walk-in closet, since we didn’t want the bed and window facing the street side.

Thanks again!
