Hello,
I have attached two layout options and would appreciate any alternative suggestions or advice. As often recommended here, I’ve cut out and placed the furniture. It turned out that between the bed and the wardrobe in the niche, there would only be a passage of about 50cm (20 inches). The current wardrobe is 55cm (22 inches) deep, and with the door open, it adds approximately another 45cm (18 inches).
One idea is to shift the bathroom wall slightly into the bathroom, which would align the wall between the office and the guest room. This would also make the passage between the bed and the wardrobe a bit wider.
In the other option, the wardrobe would be positioned behind the door, with the wall moved 10cm (4 inches) into the office to the right. However, the wardrobe height of almost exactly 2 meters (6 ft 7 in) extends beyond the 2-meter (6 ft 7 in) line. This would mean extending the wall on the narrow side of the wardrobe (toward the hallway) or the entire wall between the bedroom and the office slightly toward the stairs, so that the wardrobe fits within the 2-meter (6 ft 7 in) zone.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.

A building depth of 7.70 meters (25 feet) is naturally quite limited. It’s no surprise that the space around the bed becomes tight.
Or you could move the bedroom to the right side of the plan? The office and guest room would then have to be adjusted accordingly.

The bathroom wall would basically extend up to the stairwell opening, so when looking up from the stairs you would only see a wall instead of the railing. That might take some getting used to. Or you keep the bathrooms as in the original plan and shift them closer to the 2-meter (6.5 feet) line?

I would have approached the wardrobe solution similarly to kaho: place the wardrobe in the office, move the office/bedroom partition further to the right as planned, and then position the wardrobe or wardrobe corner there. Why squeeze it into a space in this house where it isn’t necessary?

The 7.70m (25 feet 3 inches) is original as stated. Original? Like Werter's original? That’s nonsense. My house has the dimensions I like and is totally not original.

Basically my suggestion in "Image 2" is to move the wall towards the office further to the right to create more space behind the door in the bedroom (this was already planned, but intended for a dresser). Extend the partition wall to the staircase a bit so that the closet reaches up to the 2m (6 ft 6 in) line? Correct?

Kaho also extended the wall with the doors to the bedroom and guest room further down the plan.
