Who is responsible for the planning: -Do-it-YourselfWhat does "Elk 138" refer to then; are you planning to build with them or were they just a source of inspiration? Where does the idea come from to position the elongated house, which is not typical for the plot (and in general: a row-end/semi-detached house floor plan as the basis for a detached house)?

I see a lot of corners and many disproportionate rooms.
Where are you planning to have meals?
Is the cloakroom placed under the stairs, or what was your idea? Especially when having guests, the absence of a cloakroom is problematic.
The toilet doesn’t even have a window, and the toilet door opens directly into the entrance door, which is inconvenient.
Upstairs, you have a huge, sprawling hallway of almost 26m² (280 sq ft), while the bedroom has to make do with 10.4m² (112 sq ft), which will make the bedroom look small despite the walk-in closet.
The drainage from the utility room upstairs runs directly through the living room, conveniently right next to the sofa. At least when you’re watching TV, you will hear when the machine is pumping out and finishing.
The “granny flat” is very unusual; the “kitchen” there is practically non-furnishable and unusable, especially with the entrance area being as small as 4.6m² (50 sq ft). The living/sleeping room is also too small, except for use as a single room, especially since both doors open inward.
No offense intended: even with a narrow house shape, much more is possible... I recommend having someone with proper experience do the planning...

With the shed on the south side, the rooms on the ground floor hardly get any light – only in the morning.
What are your plans for the granny flat? You will need to provide more parking spaces for it.
A house like this will be very difficult to sell, although that might not matter to you. But I wouldn’t design the access to the bathroom on the upper floor through the bedroom. That way, the office can never be used as a second bedroom.
I think you really need to start over from the beginning.

Hello 🙂
This is a basic floor plan we found a few days ago. We have to start over anyway.
On the north side, a fairly busy road runs along the plot, and there is a housing estate with multi-family buildings opposite. The idea is to shield everything in that direction.
That’s coming later 🙂 I posted this mainly to raise questions. Your points are duly noted!
No need to feel bad, that’s why I’m posting here 🙂 All valid points.
The granny flat is actually just an office and a place where guests can stay.
The resale aspect is indeed an issue. Noted!

Where does the idea come from to place a rather elongated house, which doesn’t fit the plot, there? And in general: a semi-detached/end-terrace house layout as the basis for a detached house?
