§34 in relation to the development plan; Definition of the immediate surroundings

And if even bay windows are already considered "ulcers," I wonder what would then be considered not monotonous –

Well, the modern townhouse is actually the expression of a clear square line. Bay windows are exactly what does not fit into that.

Then in the end it's no longer a townhouse.

I think the forum has answered your question as well as possible. Immediately adjacent is exactly next door and not 100 meters further. However, the final decision lies with the authority. It is wise to possibly make a building inquiry in advance. Because how your offices operate cannot be said by us. One might argue that municipalities can be glad that someone settles there, that builders should not be hindered, etc. Builders are often very creative in their arguments when it comes to their own building project.

I had asked about the architect.

We are currently still waiting for answers from him.

I think, after this answer, there is (still) none.

The floor plan is not from the architect but created by myself with Cedreo.

This objection is also not necessary. You can tell when exterior walls are only about 24cm thick, doors open outward, or the only bathroom on the upper floor is accessible only through a bedroom. For floor plan discussions, however, we have a separate subforum here with a questionnaire so that the forum also knows what the needs of the builders are in order to be constructive. Personally, I don't care what kind of house someone builds. I can only advise.

What still fits the topic: if a house is poorly positioned on a plot so that you basically no longer notice whether you have 20 or 25 meters of garden depth because it simply doesn't matter, but you constantly get annoyed about “the front” because, for example, you don't know where the trailer for green waste can be parked, the garbage bins have no place, or pedestrians walk too close to the toilet, then it is usually too late.

In this case, there is also the orientation to the sun: the best location in summer for an evening terrace is the west. In winter, it is the south-facing windows that stir up the happiness hormones inside. So it does no harm to also think about this. Even if suddenly the neighbor places his garage or trash on the boundary 3 meters away from his living room window, as you also plan to do.

I had asked about the architect. I think there isn’t (yet) one after this answer.

We are with a well-known house provider, and the architect is included there as well.

You can see it when exterior walls are only about 24 cm thick, doors open outwards, or the only bathroom on the upper floor is only accessible through a bedroom.

The floor plan is not up for discussion either, at least not in this forum :) The exterior walls with our house provider are 30 cm thick, not 24 cm. Regarding the doors, our focus was on placement, not on opening direction or hinge side. The floor plan mainly helped us to quickly put our ideas and wishes on paper – nothing more, nothing less. The master bathroom on the upper floor is exclusively accessible through the master bedroom – a solution that can be found in many model homes and one that we liked from the very beginning.

What still fits the topic: if a house is poorly conveyed on a plot, so that you no longer notice whether you have 20 or 25 meters of garden depth because it simply doesn’t matter, but then you constantly get annoyed about the “front,” for example, because you don’t know where the trailer for green waste can stand, the trash bins don’t have space, or pedestrians walk too close past the toilet, then it’s usually too late.

The trailer for green waste fits comfortably in the driveway during use. Otherwise, to be honest, I don’t want to see that thing – that’s what the storage garage a village away is for. Including the garage, there are four parking spaces on the property, and if there should be more guests, they can easily park on the street. And whether the garden is 20 m or 25 m deep, we really do notice – everyone probably feels differently about this, but this difference definitely matters to us.

or the only bathroom on the upper floor is only accessible through a bedroom.

That also immediately caught my attention.

The master bathroom on the upper floor is only accessible through the master bedroom – a solution that you find in many model homes and that we ourselves have liked very much from the start.

The emphasis is on "the only bathroom." In model homes, that always looks good. But in real life, you then have an additional kids' bathroom. Master bathroom already implies that there is at least a second one. What is missing here. This won’t work. I can only advise you to post the floor plan here. How big exactly is the plot?

On the ground floor, there is a bathroom with a shower and toilet (6 sqm). As a child, I had only one bathroom on two floors; I had to use the stairs, and it was not a problem. We want to indulge in the luxury of a master bathroom. If one ever changes their mind, the drywall can still be moved later, and the access to the bathroom can be placed in the hallway; there is enough space for that.

;)

Ignore the garage dimensions; these will result from the required distance to the right neighbor. With the garage, the gap between the house and the left neighbor is closed. The floor plan is not from the architect but created by myself with Cedreo.

Exactly how big is the plot?

870 sqm

If you should change your mind later, you can always move the drywall and put the bathroom entrance to the hallway, there is enough space for that.

Wow! Such an answer with the hint of "when I was a child, I also didn’t have..." to a well-meant suggestion is not considerate towards anyone - neither nor your unborn children. I would probably develop a weak bladder as a child and always walk loudly past the marital bed to then use the toilet :D
