Hello everyone,
we will begin building a single-family house at the end of August and I would like to share our current house plan here.
Development Plan / Restrictions
Plot size 567 sqm (approximately 6,104 sq ft)
Slope no
Floor area ratio (FAR) 0.4
Site coverage ratio 0.8
Building setback, building line, and boundary 2.5 m (8 feet) from the property border
Number of parking spaces 2
Number of storeys 2
Roof type pyramid roof
Architectural style urban villa
Orientation garden facing south
Client Requirements
Style, roof type, building type urban villa
Basement, storeys 2 full floors without basement
Number of occupants, age 2 people, 26/27 years
Office: family use or home office? office possibly also as a guest room
Open kitchen, kitchen island yes
Number of dining seats
Fireplace no
Balcony, roof terrace garden terrace
Garage, carport detached double garage, prefabricated construction
Orientation living and dining rooms facing the garden
House Design
Planned by: initially in collaboration with the developer
What do you particularly like? Why? staircase in the living/dining area
What do you not like? Why? window layout, living room feels like an “extended” hallway due to sofa placement
Estimated price according to architect/planner: ~361,000 euros (excluding garage, additional construction costs)
Preferred heating technology: air-to-water heat pump
If you have to give up, which features/finishes
- can you give up? not yet considered
- cannot do without: electric shutters, blinds in living/dining area and kitchen, staircase in living room, so-called T-solution in the bathroom
I would like to emphasize that these are still some of the first drawings. The furniture, kitchen, etc. have only been placed as placeholders for now.
It should also be mentioned that the main entrance can only be on this side, as we have a “small” driveway at the edge of the plot in front of the garage.
In short, what I am not completely satisfied with in the current plan:
- window distribution
- living room, because the sofa can only be placed this way due to the casement window
I am very grateful for any further tips or criticism!

Flottertoni6 Feb 2020 15:35Here is a very simple image to help better visualize the plot of land.
The plot is approximately 22m (72 feet) wide and 26m (85 feet) long.
Rotating the garage by 90 degrees would only take up more space from the garden, and the driveway would face directly onto the garden – which we find unattractive. We do not want to enclose everything with hedges here.

Flottertoni6 Feb 2020 15:37Of course, I am not satisfied with the drainpipes either, and they need to be handled differently. I believe the size of the kitchen is sufficient and allows for good planning. How it will be realized later can still be defined during the detailed design of the interior walls.

Flottertoni6 Feb 2020 16:23Please excuse the poor quality of the drawing. In it, I have sketched two possible options, including the driveway.
The idea is to avoid having a full view into the garden from the driveway. Additionally, placing the garage there would require too many paving stones and take up too much space. Moving the garage forward is not an option either, as it would reduce the space behind the garage.
I hope this explains it clearly.

No, unfortunately not. The main question is why the block is supposed to be placed in the southwest, completely blocking the light inside your house, instead of in the northeast, where it belongs?F
Flottertoni6 Feb 2020 18:31I don’t understand your question. This last picture is only meant to show the two options for the garage. Please disregard the rest.
