Development Plan / Restrictions
Plot size: 870 m² (9,375 sq ft)
Slope: 3% over 22.9 m (75 ft)
Number of parking spaces: minimum 4 + garage
Number of floors: 1
Roof style: hipped roof, 28 degrees
Design style: undecided
Orientation: terrace facing south/west
Homeowner Requirements
Number of residents, ages: 2 persons, children planned, 28 and 29 years old
Guests per year:

Fireplace: yes, with external air supply (drain pipe under the floor slab)
Garage, carport: Garage with utility room approx. 37 m² (400 sq ft), carport 36 m² (387 sq ft)
House Design
Planner: DIY with implementation by architect
What do you like most? Why?: The long sight lines filled with natural light.
What do you dislike? Why?: Folding stairs in the children's room, but it has to be somewhere. In the hallway it would be too prominent.
Price estimate from architect/planner: 330,000 € without kitchen, fireplace, carport, and landscaping
Preferred heating system: air-to-water heat pump
If you have to give up anything, which details/extensions
-can you do without: carport
-can’t do without: garage
What is the most important / fundamental question about the floor plan in 130 characters?
Are there any experiences with the Vaillant flexotherm exclusive with uniSTOR 300 l (79 gal)?
Vinyl flooring or parquet?
Ceiling spotlights in the hallway loft from Werkaus, or better to install yourself?
I would really appreciate tips and your opinions about the floor plan!
Best regards, Eckert

We are almost there, it will probably be ready in 1-2 weeks.You probably don’t want to hear any criticism anyway. Who likes submitting a building permit / planning permission application when they read that the design isn’t as good as expected?
Okay, the sleeping area can be mirrored... but somehow everything depends on the kitchen... which is already printed in color... so you’ve already imagined it clearly...

I also considered having the option to replace the loft ladder with a proper staircase, in case the attic is ever converted.28° hipped roof without knee wall – forget it.https://www.instagram.com/11antgmxde/

Hausbautraum2031 Oct 2021 08:32I also don’t find a staircase in the children’s room appealing.
Having the children’s rooms facing east is a shame for the kids as well. I would completely reverse the layout.
I prefer the bathroom and bedroom facing east, regardless of the children’s rooms. I like being woken up by the morning sun and having plenty of natural light in the bathroom. In the afternoon and evening, we’re usually not in the bedroom, so daylight there doesn’t make much difference.
Otherwise, I agree with the points mentioned by ypg.
I wouldn’t like looking at the messy and, with children, even dirtier entrance area from the dining table. However, you could still add a door there.
The kitchen doesn’t look very practical to me either, but ours is similar.

The kitchen doesn’t look very practical to me either, but ours is similar. Okay, let’s see if switching the sleeping area works out. Yes, we’re still considering adding a door to close off the vestibule, but that will have to wait for later since it’s not currently affordable.
Thank you very much for the advice!
Yes, the fixed price offer is still valid as long as the building permit/planning permission is obtained by the end of February.
Best regards,

Yes, we are keeping the option open to close off the entrance area with a door later; it’s just not affordable right now.You’ll need to explain that to me in more detail now. 🙄If everything is already finalized, you’re bringing up the plans too late.
There’s no collective back-patting with this floor plan, as you’ve noticed.
I also find the living/dining/kitchen area somehow “odd.” It’s basically three separate spaces without doors.
