And sleep with your head to the north :)

In addition to the north window? East is not the favorable side, the neighbor is quite close to the boundary there.

We also don’t know if we want to align the house exactly north-south

Or rather rotated 15° so that it stands parallel to the street to the north:

Disadvantage: The terrace gets sunlight later in the morning.

@SirSydrom Hello, the street to the north, that is apparently the wider of the two streets bordering your property - is it very busy? I ask because I am especially sensitive to noise when sleeping. That’s why I definitely didn’t want it on the street side (also to the north for us), even though it’s only a residential area. The proximity of the front door would also bother me. Suppose I have already gone to sleep, my husband comes home later and says goodbye to friends for a while and jangles with the keys and so on, the front door might close audibly – something like that would annoy me. These are just thoughts. I don’t know a perfect solution for your floor plan. A bedroom in the south could get uncomfortably warm in summer, but maybe that is no longer a problem with well-insulated houses??? Swapping the bedroom and dressing room would take away the possibility of going directly from the dressing room to the bathroom. Maybe ypg’s tip to shift the window from the north to the east is the best; the exterior view from the north side should be checked first. Best regards

brought me to another possibility:

She is absolutely right about the visitor noise and the door. There are always situations where the other person wants to go to bed earlier. Even when sick, one probably does not want to be aware of what is happening at the door. Therefore, I would actually switch and/or move the bedroom window to the east so that the room does not heat up so much.

Our current bedroom has only one window facing east and I can tell you: even there we now have 27 degrees *cry*. It does not cool down at all when ventilating at night or early in the morning. The west room, on the other hand, does. So I would prefer 2 windows per bedroom anyway for cross ventilation. It’s simply better to sleep like that in such heat. We will have that soon in the new house facing northwest ;)
