ᐅ Optimize the upper floor of the townhouse. Install floor-to-ceiling windows.

Hi, attached is a floor plan for a townhouse (142sqm (1,527 sq ft)).

What can be improved here? How can the upper floor be optimized in relation to Child 2’s room?

All windows on the upper floor are floor-to-ceiling and located in the same positions as on the ground floor.

On the ground floor, for example, I would create an opening from the kitchen to the hallway opposite the floor-to-ceiling window.

1. This would save having to go through the living room.

2. It would allow natural light into the hallway through that window.

Additionally, I might consider moving the fireplace closer to the living room.
- This would make the walk-in closet more usable; it would probably not disturb Child 1’s room.

Regarding Child 2’s room, the only idea I have is to incorporate the hallway space. Child 2 would then have the wide floor-to-ceiling window, but the hallway would lose its window entirely...

I’m really at a loss here.

Do you have two children (or are you planning to) or will it just be a guest room?

Best regards
Sabine

Is the ground floor really so indispensable and perfect that this questionable staircase position must be kept?

An upper floor for a wanted child and a cuckoo tropical bird. Wonderful.

2 children. The ground floor can also be easily modified.
