Hello!
We have basically finished the planning now. I’d be interested in your opinions.
I have attached the ground floor and first floor plans. The basement is pretty straightforward: fitness room, workshop, office, utility room.
A few points we have thought about for a while:
Open staircase.
We have seen this in real life and really like it. It opens up the spatial feeling a bit. The downside I see is noise transmission from the living/dining area to the children’s bedrooms/bedrooms. I think we can live with that, but we have planned it so that a drywall partition could still be added on the ground floor.
Main entrance facing north, carport on the south side.
The reason is this: originally, the carport was planned along the rear property line. However, I’m concerned about costs if the entire driveway needs to be paved. That would be nearly 200sqm (2,150 sqft). What would something like that cost? Also, fees are charged for sealed surfaces. Or does anyone have a practical idea?
We had also considered placing the main entrance on the east side, but then the hallway/utility room layout became unattractive.
Living room size
There are about 3.5 meters (11.5 feet) to the wall. We’ve arranged our living room furniture accordingly and think it’s sufficient. Otherwise, the planned wardrobe with floor-to-ceiling sliding doors in the entrance area would have to be removed.
The conservatory is not really a conservatory, but rather an enclosed terrace with glass sliding doors.
Best regards,
Daniel

@ypg: The table matches our table. Solid oak, extendable from 160cm (63 inches) to 237cm (93 inches) with a telescopic slide. It is shown at 160cm (63 inches).

A larger room would also have the advantage of being usable for other purposes. For example, if there is one more child. Or later in life as a sleeping area on the ground floor. In this, ypg is right.
