motorradsilke15 Dec 2020 16:10Hello,
I am sharing the floor plan as we have developed it. Perhaps there are some suggestions?
The dimensions are interior room sizes, with a wall thickness of 10 cm (4 inches) assumed. Depending on the actual wall thickness, adjustments will be necessary.
Plot size: 1200 sqm (12,917 sq ft)
Slope: no
Floor area ratio / plot ratio: unknown, but not important
Building permit / planning permission, building line and boundary: there is no development plan; the new house will stand where our current house is (only the distance to the neighbor must be increased to 3 m (10 feet)), which according to the responsible building authority is no problem
Edge development: no
Number of parking spaces: garages already exist and will remain
Number of floors: bungalow, single story
Roof type: gable or hip roof
Style?
Orientation: roof facing east-west
Other constraints: the plot is only about 16 m (52 feet) wide, so the house must not be wider than about 10 m (33 feet) in this direction
Homeowners’ requirements
Style, roof type, building type: bungalow, preferably gable roof
Basement, floors: no basement, only 1 floor, storage room in the attic
Number of occupants, age: 2 persons, 55 and 58
Space needs on the ground floor: about 100 sqm (1,076 sq ft)
Office: family use or home office: no
Overnight guests per year: 2 grandchildren occasionally, father occasionally
Open or closed layout?
Conservative or modern construction: rather conservative
Open kitchen, cooking island: open kitchen
Number of dining places: 4
Fireplace: yes, definitely
Music/sound system wall: no
Balcony, roof terrace: no
Garage, carport: already existing
Utility garden, greenhouse: garden already established
House design
Designed by:
- Do-It-Yourself, created based on various templates
What do you like most? Why?: large window front on the south side with direct access to the garden
What do you not like? Why?
- Corner in the hallway between utility room and bedroom, but the hallway should remain large to avoid bumping into each other and to have enough space for motorbike gear,
- I would prefer the fireplace positioned more in the corner between kitchen and living area, but that conflicts with neighbor distance regulations and emissions protection
Price estimate according to architect/planner: initial offers are around €190,000 for about 110 sqm (1,184 sq ft), but changes are still needed
Personal price limit for the house, including fittings: should not exceed €200,000 plus additional construction costs; equipment is already taken care of
Preferred heating system: gas condensing boiler, since gas supply is already connected
If you had to give up anything, which details/expansions
- Could you give up: nothing
- Cannot give up: underfloor heating, large window front, fireplace
Why did the design turn out as it is?
All wishes were implemented as far as possible
What is the most important/basic question about the floor plan in 130 characters?
Is there anything that doesn’t work at all? Any room for improvement? What would you do differently? Where could it be optimized?

the new house will be built on the same site as our current house So, unlike what the headline might suggest, it’s not a second house but a replacement for an existing building that will be demolished. What is the reason for demolishing it?
Please show the plot plan. Floor area ratio or plot ratio don’t really matter haha, but on a 1200 sqm (0.3 acre) lot, it should effectively be like that ;-)
How is the drawing oriented?

motorradsilke15 Dec 2020 17:11I am not aware of any floor area ratio below 0.2, which would allow me to build 240 sqm (2,583 sq ft), so it shouldn’t matter, right?
And with a bungalow, I shouldn’t have any issues with the plot ratio either.
I’m attaching the site plan. The new house will be built where the red-roofed house currently stands, just a little further to the right (east). The small red-roofed building will be removed.
The reason is the condition of the old house, built in the 1970s DDR era, somewhat cobbled together, with ceiling heights of only up to 2.30 m (7.5 ft), no underfloor heating, no way to connect the kitchen to the living room, everything is cramped and awkwardly arranged. You can live in it, but no matter the renovations, it will never really be pleasant. Now there is some money saved up to build a nice house.

Oh, by the way, the floor plan above is rotated 180 degrees relative to the plot.

motorradsilke15 Dec 2020 17:26We are in the surrounding area. That would fit. Do you see the coronavirus as an obstacle? Meeting with another household is still allowed.
