Hello everyone,
We are planning to build a new townhouse in the Homburg/Saar district.
We have been working with an independent architect for about six weeks and are slowly approaching the final stages of the planning, as the design meets our expectations except for the kitchen.
There is no zoning plan, so we need to align with the neighborhood.
All nearby houses have two full floors plus an attic.
The municipality was open to exceptions because behind our property there is a flat-roof bungalow, which is quite unusual for the area.
Zoning Plan / Restrictions
Homeowner Requirements
House Design
We would appreciate your feedback.
We are happy to answer any questions – don’t hesitate to ask.
The site plan is not fully up to date and is not oriented to the north – north is in the upper right corner.
Best regards
Kevin

Zaba, you built smaller but still exceeded the original poster’s budget.True, 8 sqm (86 sq ft) smaller, but with an unplanned basement :-p. A classic Pyrrhic victory.Joking aside, I simply increased the budget by €120,000 (about $130,000).
There was a reason I wrote the last post. I just wasn’t willing to accept fewer features for that construction cost.
By the way, I visited one of the houses on the lower plots today. Excavation and disposal costs turned out to be twice as expensive as planned. From the top edge of the finished floor at the patio door down to the property boundary, there is a drop of 4m (13 feet). There is a 2.5m (8 feet) drop from the patio door to the ground, and hardly any budget left for the landscaping. This isn’t something you can save up for after moving in.
But then again, I wanted to build 150 sqm (1,615 sq ft) for 300,000€. :-p

But I also wanted to build 150 sqm (1,615 sq ft) for 300,000€. Landscaping is often underestimated and saving for it later is overestimated.

Zaba, you have almost 200 sqm (2,150 sq ft)? I thought it was 150 sqm (1,615 sq ft) without a basement
Anyway, not everyone can add 120,000 Either that, or I would have had to sell the plot. It ended up being 140 sqm (1,510 sq ft) with a 70 sqm (750 sq ft) basement.
