Dear community,
After extensive and thorough reading, I would like to write my first post. We are currently planning to build a new house and are still at a very early stage of the planning process. However, to move forward, I have a question and would appreciate your expertise.
I found a design for the gable of the house that I really like (see image: Desired Gable). There is a provider where you can also find a price for the prefab house, but this is not enough for comparison and would also be way too expensive.
My idea is: Why not simply extend the roof at the gable of a "standard house" by 1.80 m (6 feet), then extend the walls down accordingly, and cover the underside of the roof as well as the house wall with wood cladding?
What do you think about the additional costs? We are currently planning with a living area of 150 m² (1,615 sq ft) and a relatively simple house for about 400,000 to 430,000 euros. For such a gable, I would be willing to pay an extra 50,000 euros. But is that realistic?
Why do I ask: Because this would change the entire planning, such as how the house is positioned on the plot, the layout of the rooms, and so on.
I know this is very general, and I just want to get a sense of whether the project is realistic in this form.

I already had a floor plan ready, but I wasn't really satisfied overall because it would just be a very standard single-family house. I also have other ideas, but I know the budget wouldn't cover them.If you were willing to invest 50,000 in a design feature, I can't imagine what it wouldn't cover.Armbrust schrieb:
I find this gable with the walls on the sides, which together reflect the outline of the house, really appealing. Especially with the contrast of different materials. Of course, it's a matter of personal taste.ypg schrieb:
By the way, Schwörerhaus has a similar design without the loggia, only with a gable-side roof overhang and side walls. Do you mean something like that? (Google finds the house under Schwörerhaus Helmstorf)I think the taste referred to here is one shared at least by @darek6er (in his case with a shed roof), namely a "floor-to-ceiling roof overhang" on the gable sides. So like this show home Helmstorf or this https://www.hausbau-forum.de/threads/grundriss-einfamilienhaus-ca-200-qm-fuer-4-personen-die-ersten-entwuerfe.34537/page-15#post-467923https://www.instagram.com/11antgmxde/

Are you planning to have the entire area glazed? And with slanted windows as well? That will increase the costs. But overall, you might still manage with the 50k. Such designs are rarely standard, so prices are often marked up.
Your architect should be able to advise you on this.
