Hello
I am new to this forum and still finding my way around.
Since we have our first consultation appointment on Monday (with a prefabricated house company), I would like to ask you already for some help and advice.
Development Plan / Restrictions
Plot size – 2493 sqm (about 26,819 sq ft)
Single-story with additional half-floor
Number of parking spaces – 2
Number of floors – 1.5
Roof type – 25° (degree) gable roof
We checked with the municipality – there is no formal development plan for our community.
Client Requirements
External vestibule at the entrance
No basement, ground floor + upper floor with 2 m (6.6 ft) knee wall height
Number of occupants, age: 2 adults, 1 child (about 5 years old at move-in)
Space needed on ground floor and upper floor: approximately 70–80 sqm (750–860 sq ft) each
Office: family use, possibly guest room
Guests per year: many friends across Germany, so frequent visitors expected
Closed architectural style
Conservative building method
Kitchen without island, with sliding door to the living/dining area
Around 6–10 dining seats (extendable dining table planned)
Carport eventually, but not at the time of house construction
House Design
Who designed it:
- We spent a long time thinking about floor plans and then found THE floor plan for us on a blog (Traum-vom-Eigenheim --> Draft 3/Finish) – THANKS unknown Jenny & Tilo!!!!
What we especially like:
- Separate entrances to kitchen and living/dining area
- Office/guest room, kitchen, living/dining area, and WC/shower on the ground floor = potentially age-appropriate
- Efficient use of living space
- Storage room in the upper floor, since there is no basement
Personal budget limit for the house, including equipment: €250,000
Preferred heating technology:
Air-to-water heat pump with controlled ventilation
We still need to look into heating systems in more detail
We are looking forward to your suggestions.
Unfortunately, I have to stop now, as our little daughter has woken up well-rested.
Thank you for reading!!

I would definitely enlarge the kitchen on the ground floor by moving the utility room wall. The same applies to the upper floor: enlarge the walk-in closet to create space for a wardrobe recess, at the expense of the bathroom. After four months of planning, you should understand why your secondary rooms are planned on the south side.
@ypg :
4 months of "planning time" without an architect.
So far, we have been gathering our ideas for the first meeting and have only been in contact with the consultant/salesperson from the prefabricated house manufacturer. Unfortunately, the months have passed due to the complicated land purchase (multiple owners + leased).
We have modified our previous floor plan ideas from the prefabricated house manufacturer’s catalog.
How would you change it based on the location?
Thank you for your suggestions.

There is a similar thread running in parallel with the same focus. Personally, I think having the living room facing north is not a good idea at all! Just because of the garden—completely wrong! I find the kitchen with a connection to the terrace far more important!
Here is a picture from the neighbor’s neighbor thread that I suggested.
This layout had a separate kitchen and living area, but there is also a proposal from kbn with an open-plan design.

The house dimensions are 8.09 m x 11.21 m (26.6 ft x 36.8 ft).
We don’t want to deviate from that.
As for the orientation of the house, we are still open to options.
Thanks for the alternative floor plan. We just want to keep our platform staircase, and that makes it quite difficult.
@BeHaElJa
I looked up the plot using satellite images and roughly measured the width.
According to the building authority, only the front half of the lot is buildable.
The plot isn’t ideal, but we really want to live in this town, and it was the last available buildable spot we could buy.
