ᐅ Floor Plan Design for Urban Villa 145

Created on: 8 Mar 2023 13:04

Hello dear forum members.

I have been quietly following for some time and would now like to take the opportunity to gather some tips and advice. We are currently planning our house and would like to share our initial drafts with you.

We are completely flexible in the planning and want a functional home for 4 people. Important features for us are a kitchen island, fireplace, and walk-in shower on the ground floor.

We would appreciate any tips and suggestions, as we have never planned or built a house before.

Thank you very much in advance.

I think your plot of land is fantastic. Also, from what I gather, it’s great that you are so adaptable and flexible. The size of the house fits perfectly and creates, in my opinion, a harmonious overall concept.

Thank you, that already gives us a good feeling that we are on the right track.

Yes, we didn’t really see it as too problematic; we were just happy to have secured a plot at a fair price through the municipality.

All good, that works fine. 774 m² (8,333 sq ft) with a floor area ratio of 0.25 recalculated to a floor area ratio of 0.4 still results in 483 m² (5,198 sq ft). If you only have to leave 3 m (10 ft) instead of 5 m (16 ft) in front of the garage, you’re not in a bad position at all. And the planting requirement area is fully usable as an outdoor space for the dog and cat. For other readers, it should be noted that I consider an unauthorized tightening of the development plan by the district commissioner to be contestable.

I don’t see anything saying that people aren’t allowed to roam in the bushes as long as they don’t cause any damage. 😎

@icarus123 #60 gets no response?

I find the entrance area in your design unfortunately quite awkward and not very inviting. What do you think about the option where the staircase separates the kitchen/dining area from the living room? Baufritz has an example of this:
Exterior dimensions: 10.7 m x 8.2 m (35 ft 1 in x 26 ft 11 in)
(You’ll have to imagine the garage removed or placed differently)

Actually, I just haven’t had time yet to draw the upper floor to go with this. I have no idea yet how this staircase will affect the upstairs layout… I need to visualize that first.

Oh, by the way, Baufritz also offers upper floors:

This one has a master bathroom and a children’s bathroom. For an office, the kids would probably have to be on the north side. That wouldn’t be ideal. Hmm, I’ll have to think about it some more.

Yes, I don’t think that really suits us. We don’t need anything quite so luxurious with a master bathroom and kids’ bathroom, plus that’s going to affect the cost anyway.
