Hello,
we have a building plot and everything is still possible.
Of course, we have wishes and ideas.
Just like people are different, we all build our houses differently...
I’m interested in how you would approach having two sides, namely the east and south sides, facing a green area: but with a tree preservation and planting requirement on the south side...
And you want to be part of this garden...
Here are the facts as suggested by the moderation:
Plot size 1159 sqm (12,470 sq ft)
No slope, only a slight incline along a ditch, but it’s on the building boundary anyway. With trees and planting according to the development plan on the long side, where a tree already stands. Building boundary on the long side 6 meters (20 feet). The rest 3 meters (10 feet).
Floor area ratio known only as a percentage: 60% may be built on.
Plot ratio unknown at the moment, definitely ridge height 12 meters (39 feet). Surrounding buildings are mostly one and a half stories, and bungalows are planned. There are practically no restrictions.
Building window, building line and boundary
Edge development, only known after consulting authorities, our plan fits...
Number of parking spaces 3
Number of floors 1 (1.5 floors would also be conceivable)
Roof shape gable roof.
Style simple bungalow
Orientation? See plan.
Maximum heights/restrictions
Other requirements are met.
2 neighbors.
One on the north side and one on the west side, but only on a small section.
The rest of the west side is the access driveway.
Client requirements
We have no particular style preference; for us, the important thing is that we found a nice building plot in this location at all and that we focus more on a reasonable budget, finding an affordable mortgage payment, and being able to live well in the long term.
Household of 4 people, visitors 3-5 (at once) at least 4 weekends per year... We have a caravan that is used as an extra bedroom for us.
An office and workspace would be very advantageous for us as technology and craft enthusiasts.
Sufficient space on a small footprint.
The living area could also be open up to the roof... Or have a ceiling like the other rooms. But no exact idea yet... The structural engineering should be feasible, but it’s not yet decided what budget we want to allocate to that...
Whether conservative or modern... I’d say a healthy mix. In any case, with
an open kitchen, a small kitchen island (not a must) but reasonable storage space in the kitchen. As a mom, I want to be part of the busy life, and I can no longer imagine having a separate kitchen.
A basement is not essential.
Double garage planned. Possibly a carport.
Number of dining seats: 6 definitely, 8 would be great.
A fireplace is planned.
Wishes/particulars/daily routine, also reasons why this or that should or should not be:
1. Room layout:
Bedroom on the long side, as that’s the quiet green side. The kitchen and living room should be basically part of the garden.
The kitchen has morning and evening sun.
The entrance is at the front because we decided that a side entrance near the neighbor—for example: getting out of the car and around the corner, behind the house—is too far away for us, and the front facing the street would otherwise only have a window for the utility room...
Terrace location still open. Probably there will be two... The evening sun will come around again.
House design
Who is the plan by:
Idea from the internet, adapted plan created by ourselves.
All windows on the south side are floor-to-ceiling. Two patio doors: one facing east, one to the south off the dining room. Kitchen sink window has a lower window section. Another kitchen window is also floor-to-ceiling.
Other rooms (bathroom, guest WC, office, utility room) standard height.
Oh, and the kitchen island here is probably drawn too large. Actually, it would be 1 meter (3.3 feet) on the sides and 1.5 meters (5 feet) facing the kitchen counter.
What do you particularly like? Why?
Bedroom on a quiet side, no neighbor.
Kitchen and living room basically part of the garden, also a corner without neighbors, facing the green.
What don’t you like? Why?
Storage room too far from the kitchen, but still the best solution... And my plan is to fit as much as possible into the kitchen.
Cost estimate, somewhere between 150,000 and 220,000 (without garage and without outdoor facilities)
Preferred heating technology: not settled yet, we are currently looking into air-source heat pumps.
If you had to give up something, which details/extras
- could you live without:
- could you not live without:
Bedroom, living, and kitchen must face the green side...
Fireplace must be included,
2 children’s rooms,
Bathtub must be included...
I could maybe do without a second patio door? And kitchen layout, I’m still open.
Looking forward to your suggestions and feedback.
I hope for constructive, respectful criticism.

Text from the development plan:
"... The construction varies greatly in terms of design, height, and volume. It is not possible to define a typical building style for the area under consideration. ..." That does not sound like a development plan at all, but rather like an expert report prepared for its creation.
As mentioned before: just provide the municipality and the development plan (name or number – feel free to send it via private message), and you will quickly be told which information might have led to misunderstandings.

Grit Stephan30 Apr 2018 13:32This is from the development plan. Of course, the development plan is not a free pass. Perhaps it’s generally helpful to know that compensatory areas have also been created.
In any case, the current house construction will be approved by the responsible authorities. I would recommend having any additional plans reviewed accordingly before starting construction.
But we can still gladly discuss this further via private message.
Regarding the suggestion "entrance and garage on the east". That plan was also considered.
However, it would result in about a 40-meter (130 feet) driveway to the garage, which would negatively affect the garden and the size of the house.
Therefore, we rejected this option.
Rotating the house... yes... but how then to plan the bedrooms and living areas facing the garden? Any specific floor plan suggestions?

By the way, "compensation" here only means a restriction on changes—so it does not refer to planting or anything like that—for a natural area of corresponding size.https://www.instagram.com/11antgmxde/

... The compartment for the parents, two compartments for the children, the corridor shifts at the bathroom, and at the end of the carriage is the dining room
So if we build like this, I’ll invite my guests for a train ride and plan for an emergency brake and ticket counter as well.Do you think the carriage layout could be "neutralized" with a wider corridor and a correspondingly brighter entrance door?
I have such a door in the plan (you can find similar offers online): one side glazed, fixed, and a matching glass door.

Do you think the wagon layout could be “neutralized” by having a wider corridor and a correspondingly lighter front door? No, only with a different arrangement (which in turn is related to a different shape or at least different proportions).
