Hello dear forum community,
it seems there are quite a few building novices, construction experts, or those aspiring to become experts here. We currently belong to the last group, aiming to become more experienced. We are a young family with one child so far but plan to have a second child in the near future.
Therefore, we would like to present our design to you, hoping it can be thoroughly reviewed.
First: This drawing is the initial draft, which we can still change and for which we already have some ideas for adjustments.
Regarding this:
1) The children’s room on the ground floor is intended to become the master bedroom.
2) The master bedroom will accordingly become the children’s room.
3) The shower should be moved upstairs, the bathtub downstairs, making the bathroom slightly larger, with a window, located along the right side of the house extending to the lower exterior wall.
4) The utility room should be roughly halved, remaining in the center, possibly integrating the small storage room.
These are our ideas so far. What do you think?

But these 295 also include all ...

The table is there as a resting place for curious cats. The access path is still missing but will be added.

toxicmolotof2 Aug 2015 13:12That was clear to me already. If I ever finish and still feel like it, I can prepare a breakdown for each trade for you. I wanted to have one for myself anyway, but at the moment I have other projects. Although, to be honest, I don’t really want to know. Everything is way too expensive anyway.

Bauexperte2 Aug 2015 13:51That’s kind of you, but you really don’t need to go to that effort for me. I can roughly calculate the cost per trade based on our estimate.
Try to leave house building behind as soon as possible and enjoy your new home and everything that comes with it. If I remember correctly, more family members are expected.
Best regards, Bauexperte

Here are a few photos of the wardrobe solution. What’s still missing, of course, is the sliding door—the molding already hints at it but still needs to be cut to the full wardrobe length. Also, the back panel, which we will custom-make from MDF and then prime and paint with white wall paint.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

@tox:
What’s the story with the three prefabricated concrete garages/storage rooms? I’m having a hard time picturing it right now... although it’s clear you have a small lot and are using a gap: do you also have a garden?
Is the wardrobe space sufficient? You don’t have a closet there, right?
How old are your children? Are there any issues with nighttime care since the master bedroom is on the ground floor? (I ask because some people see that as a potential challenge)
