Hello experts,
we have finally found a plot of land, and the planning is in its final stages.
What do you think of our floor plan? Any suggestions for improvement?
1. The plot is on a slope, which is why there is a partial basement. We actually never wanted a basement, but it makes sense here because the homeowner really wants a double garage.
2. The plot faces north at the back. The plot is 17m (56 feet) wide (building area 11m (36 feet)) and 42m (138 feet) long (building area at the front 20m (66 feet)). The road is completely on the south side, so a full south-facing orientation is not possible. The building area does not allow it. However, we don't see this as a problem and hope that the many windows will provide enough natural light inside the house.

Tadatdatada.... The building permit is here!!!
We have received the green light and are allowed to start. My husband has an appointment with the structural builder, architect, and earthworks contractor on the construction site soon. Really great!!! Now it’s getting exciting...

We already have our building permit / planning permission and construction approval – next week we have our first meeting with the architect and excavation company at the construction site...
I look forward to more updates!
Best regards,
Dirk

Thank you, everyone. We have made some progress; today, the excavator arrived and started removing the soil. So far, the experience has been entirely positive. There is a lot of topsoil available, and beneath it, there is more clay than stone. This makes the removal easier and pleases the farmers who will receive the soil.
