Hello everyone,

After reading quietly for a while and really appreciating all the ideas shared here, I’d like to bring up a topic and hopefully get some feedback, suggestions, and ideas!

I am 34 years old and originally from Munich, where I was born and raised.

Currently, we (my wife and I, with a child on the way, my sister and her partner, as well as my parents) are discussing whether to completely rebuild on our plot of land (currently occupied by a single-family house / 1000 sqm (0.25 acres) / 20 × 50 m (65 × 164 ft) / no zoning plan). The idea is to build a fairly modern house with two spacious living areas (each with its own terrace overlooking the garden, large living and dining areas, etc., and about 200 sqm (2150 sq ft) of living space), including an underground garage and a basement. A granny flat (or accessory dwelling unit) is also planned to be integrated.

I would like to start a discussion based on these ideas and am looking forward to any input or constructive criticism.

Thank you very much.

A picture is worth a thousand words. The real work begins now. Construction phase 1: underground parking garage...

Tomorrow, the foundation slab will be poured for "Construction Phase 1," which includes the underground garage area, part of the driveway, and a bicycle storage room. We are currently very satisfied with the shell construction team. They are doing a really good job, working neatly and, in our opinion, quickly. Of course, the team is well looked after by us as well. I personally visit the construction site almost every day, even if only for a few minutes.

The electrical planning as well as heating, ventilation, and sanitary installations (HVAC) are running at full speed. There is almost daily coordination needed between the architects, the various trades, and us. So far, it’s still enjoyable! 😉

Enjoy the days and the good weather!
