ᐅ Floor Plan with 3 Children’s Bedrooms in a Single-Family Home – Potential?

Wow, thanks for so many great ideas! We’re now trying to fit this in alongside childcare and work and will get back to you with answers to your questions.

First, you should position the house on the plot. In the excerpt from the development plan, the areas for garages seem to be designated as far as I can tell. Are these binding in any way, or just drawn in for reference?

Usually, this questionnaire is meant to help you avoid forgetting important information:

If the budget is important, you should definitely mention it.

A Google search also provides some ideas under the keyword "floor plan with 3 children's rooms." Maybe take a look at what others have come up with before trying to replace four years of studies with your own initiative.
The usual way would be to go to an architect or general contractor you trust with just your list of requirements without a sketch and then discuss their ideas here.

My thread is starting off a bit slowly with a lot of preliminary discussion.
Here is the final floor plan; of course, you are welcome to work your way through everything anyway:

I think this is the first time I’ve given a “Love” instead of just a Like. Last night I was really confused about where your floor plans were in the thread. And now you’ve even added more value by including a long-term test comment on the house design. Praiseworthy, that deserves a gold star / saint’s picture!
I assume the difference between gross and net window heights is due to the 25cm (10 inches) high shutter box?
I’m glad you continued your house thread today as well.
Does your wife allow you to show the finished kitchen?

Oh, I forgot to mention: gable roof with studio truss!
Nothing do I regret more than that stupid hip roof.

Many thanks also for this warning to the readers!
Would you, like @Nordlys, design the staircase in a future house so that it leads fully to the attic space?

I assume these are optionally usable, purpose-specific building envelopes for garages/carports, meaning these privileged ancillary buildings may be located within the main building envelope, the additional building envelope, or overlapping both. That’s why I noted that, in my interpretation, the garage on the left side of the house as seen from the street is missing this potential.

I still think our floor plan with three children’s bedrooms works quite well (even though it’s not the final version— the utility room/guest bathroom looks a bit different now). However, it hasn’t been built yet, so we don’t have any practical experience.

Otherwise, I found the one from Viebrockhaus (I believe it’s the Maxime 620) quite suitable. There is a version with three children’s bedrooms.

Yes, exactly!

Yes, it was quite abandoned for a while. I’ll be posting a photo of the fence soon.

Haha, once it’s finally done, I think so.
Right now, the baseboard is still missing. Somehow, I messed up the sill heights and cabinet heights. We wanted a countertop running into the window reveal, and I managed that. The problem is that the baseboard height is now 15cm (6 inches). With standard Ikea legs and baseboards, only 12cm (5 inches) is possible.
I found legs, but such tall baseboards are only available in silver (we wanted grey or maybe white). For custom cutting, it’s too narrow (starting at 20cm/8 inches), so I’ll either have to go with silver (and possibly repaint), cut it myself (which won’t be perfectly straight), or have it cut at the local carpenter’s (which will be expensive). Also, I bought some parts wrong (I had the fronts ordered and picked up in Poland, so something got mixed up). That means some drawers or their fronts are missing.
At the moment, I lack motivation and we have other ongoing projects (not related to the house).

By the way, I had a fixed schedule in mind for the kitchen planning. Aside from no one else sticking to it, I should have positioned the cooktop one cabinet further to the right. If the current countertop ever needs to be replaced, I’ll probably make that adjustment. There’s just too little workspace between the sink and the cooktop.

Without a basement, I think so. Although I would be fine with a pull-down attic staircase if it’s purely for storage, as long as you can move there without gymnastics and fit more than two shelves at 1.70m (5 ft 7 in) height. Considering such a staircase also has its cost, just switching to a standard beech wood staircase for the attic—well, if it’s hidden behind a door, okay. But then maybe better a space-saving staircase or a full-width one that is single-flight but steep.

Also, regarding the planned photovoltaic system, it really annoys me to have fallen victim to the “instead-of-hip-roof” trend—I fashion victim.

Not that I know of, but both the catalog and this thread list a 3-bedroom version of the 610: https://www.hausbau-forum.de/threads/entscheidungshilfe-bei-verschiedenen-grundrissen.46272/page-2
