Hello fellow homebuilders,
Next year we will be building a charming semi-detached house with a basement, measuring 12 x 6 m (39 x 20 ft) on a 275 m² (2960 ft²) plot. The upper floor already has sloping ceilings, with a roof pitch of 45°.
The living area is about 110 m² (1184 ft²), plus a 55 m² (592 ft²) basement.
Currently, there are two of us, and we plan to have a child in two years. A larger kitchen and dining area was important to us since we often have guests.
The building permit/planning permission applications have already been submitted. The floor plan is mostly finalized, but we would still like to get some feedback from the professionals, as the planning and structural engineering consultations are coming up!
Thank you in advance and best regards

The terrace faces south (top), but I still see the garage driveway next to the entrance... what do you see that I don’t? Or vice versa??? Yes, oh right, I missed the comment to Wastl.
Sorry, but the garage really spoils the living room, doesn’t it? It needs to go, and then you could put in large windows there—bringing light, air, and openness. At the front, where the kitchen doesn’t have any windows anyway, there’s space for something like that. It doesn’t have to be right against the house wall, so there’s still a path to the entrance. You could put a small garden shed in the backyard for tools. But I wouldn’t sacrifice my living room just because of the lawnmower.
In any case, you should reconsider the windows. One side is dark and gloomy. I would take every opportunity to bring light into the house; otherwise, it’ll feel like a cave.
