Homeowners’ Requirements
Style, roof type, building type: Gable roof
Basement, floors: Partially unfinished basement (cold cellar), ground floor, upper floor

House Design
Ground floor: footprint 107.5 m² (including stairs) (1157 sq ft)
Upper floor: footprint 101.2 m² (including stairs) (1090 sq ft)
Basement: approx. 70 m² (753 sq ft)
Designer: Ourselves using Sweet Home 3D
Basically, we used the Whiteline promotional house “Kiefernallee” by Gussek Haus as the basis for the exterior dimensions and extended it by about 50 cm (20 inches) on the left of the gable. We have been working with Gussek Haus for some time. At first, we had a floor plan with four gables and a longer house but discarded it due to complexity. The upper floor plan is still based on the promotional house. The ground floor changed quite a bit.
What do we like in particular? When entering the house, you’re not immediately in the living room.
Price estimate according to architect/planner: basic house around 450,000 € (plus finishing and move-in cost about 60,000 €)
Personal price limit for house including basement: 550,000 € plus additional costs and fittings
Preferred heating system: air-to-water heat pump with indoor unit
If you had to give up something, on which details/extensions
- Could you give up something: Actually nothing 😀
- Could you not give up: A few extra square meters here and there
Why did the design turn out this way? For example:
It fits the plot that way, although the terrace is really quite small.
What is the most important/basic question about the floor plan in 130 characters?
Will the long hallway annoy us despite its reasonable width?

the individual sizes of the living spaces listed on paper initially seem fairly plausible That just occurred to me as well, at least regarding the "standard" living rooms. Okay, the 6.x m² (65 x ft²) office isn’t really necessary, and the circulation space is a bit excessive, but overall it seems to be an issue of poor room layout. If that isn’t a job for a qualified architect, then I don’t know what is.

It’s enough to internalize and understand what was mentioned. Only when you understand can you be ready to make a change—for the better.
A knee wall of 130 cm (51 inches) and a captain’s gable don’t sound like a single-story house to me. From my experience, I would personally check this. The definition of single-story varies between federal states—for example, it’s different in Schleswig-Holstein than in Hamburg, and probably different again in Lower Saxony.
Money doesn’t seem to be an issue, but 200 m² (2,150 sq ft) plus a basement is quite large. Do you really need that much space?
