Hello dear forum,
Our ideas are slowly becoming more concrete, and we have found a floor plan that we quite like and that fits our requirements. We would love to hear your opinions and suggestions for improvement.
Development Plan/Restrictions
Plot size 518 sqm (5574 sq ft)
Slope Yes, about 2 m (6.5 ft) within the building zone, total about 3.5 m (11.5 ft), rising from the street
Floor area ratio 0.3
Plot ratio 0.6
Building zone, building line, and boundary approximately 13.5 x 12 m (44 x 39 ft)
Edge development As a new development area, everyone has the same specifications
Number of parking spaces 2
Number of floors 1.5 plus a basement, which is allowed and intended to be a full floor
Roof type gable roof, shed roof
Style open construction method
Orientation north-south
Maximum heights/limits 11 m (36 ft) ridge height
Homeowners’ Requirements
Style, roof type, building type single-family house with basement and gable roof
Basement, floors basement for living space plus 1.5 floors
Number of people, age currently a couple in their mid-30s plus a one-year-old child, more children planned
Space requirements
Ground floor: open plan living area, pantry/storage room, guest WC, 1 children’s room
Upper floor: 2 children’s rooms, family bathroom with bathtub, master bedroom with walk-in closet and shower bath
Basement: 2 offices, small shower bath, technical room/storage
Office: home office
Guest sleeping per year: rarely, so the office might occasionally be used as guest room
Open or closed architecture: open architecture
Open kitchen, kitchen island: open kitchen with island
Number of dining seats: at least 6
Fireplace: yes
Music/stereo wall: no
Balcony, roof terrace: standard terrace
Garage, carport: garage, but planned for later; possibly a carport
Utility garden, greenhouse: utility and play garden
Additional wishes/particulars: the main entrance will be moved to the basement, where the two offices are also planned. We want a high knee wall, which is why we plan a bay window to better utilize the 75% rule.
We are also still considering whether to place the main entrance on the left side of the house to make better use of space in the basement.
Furthermore, if possible, the terrace should be located above the garage on the right side of the house, as this side receives the most sun.
House Design
Who designed it: planner from a construction company plus do-it-yourself
What do you particularly like? the open and bright staircase, the living and dining area because everything is very bright
What do you dislike? Why? the solution with the parents’ area on the upper floor — hard to imagine and possibly too small
Price estimate according to architect/planner: 375,000
Personal price limit for the house, including equipment: 400,000
Preferred heating technology: air-to-water heat pump
If you have to give up something, which details/ extensions
-can you do without: fireplace
-can you not give up: parents’ area with walk-in and bathroom
Why did the design turn out as it is now? For example:
Standard design by the planner?
Which wishes were implemented by the architect? the plan is mainly the result of the spatial concept
What do you think makes it particularly good or bad? good question, it’s nothing exceptional, rather practical
What is the most important/fundamental question about the floor plan summarized in 130 characters?
What advantages or disadvantages do you see in the floor plan and design, especially regarding our large spatial concept?

A child is my partner’s stepson, who only stays every other week. So that wouldn’t necessarily be an issue.
The kitchen/living area should not be in the basement, since the garden would be accessible from the ground floor. So that option is out.
We have already gone through quite a few layouts and moved rooms around. However, we always end up back at this design concept.
Which staircase shape and arrangement would you recommend? @Ypsi aus NI
What kind of additional costs, for example? We’ve tried to think of everything, e.g. roller shutters, heating, etc. We would be grateful for any tips.

However, there are still significant additional costs with prefab house manufacturers. On average, they are more expensive than solid construction houses.

Which rooms are on which floor and what is the area in square meters? Do the individual floors align correctly with each other?Have you already done this? Please share it...

Ypsi aus NI8 Jul 2020 21:36I somehow mixed up the threads content-wise, sorry. You are satisfied with the room layout of the floor plan, right? Or is there something specific that still bothers you?
Too late, @Ypsi aus NI
Basement: Office about 17 sqm (183 sq ft) plus office about 35 sqm (377 sq ft), technical/storage room 15 sqm (161 sq ft), entrance area 15 sqm (161 sq ft)
Ground floor: Open living area with kitchen about 50 sqm (538 sq ft), room 15 sqm (161 sq ft), pantry/storage room 5 sqm (54 sq ft), guest toilet 5 sqm (54 sq ft), 10 sqm (108 sq ft) hallway/foyer
Upper floor: 2 children’s rooms each 13 sqm (140 sq ft), family bathroom 10 sqm (108 sq ft), master bedroom 12 sqm (129 sq ft), dressing room 5–6 sqm (54–65 sq ft), shower bathroom 7 sqm (75 sq ft), hallway 10 sqm (108 sq ft)
Would that be roughly sufficient in terms of planning?
