Hello everyone,
After three years of endless searching, we have finally decided to build our own home. We have found and purchased a plot of land. Since the building envelope is limited (the maximum footprint allowed is 125 sqm (1345 sq ft)) and we would like to achieve around 190 sqm (2045 sq ft) of living space with a WIO house, we have been working closely with our architect and have come up with the following plan. What do you think? We want to keep the outer layout as it is, but most of the interior walls can still be adjusted.
What are your thoughts on our idea? Do you have any suggestions for improvements?
Thank you very much and best regards

I think it’s really, really cool *thumbs up* However, in our region this would definitely not be feasible. (Bavaria, Franconia)
May I ask about the floor area in square meters of the floors and the garage? I tried to find this information on previous pages but must have missed it, if it was mentioned at all.
