Barrier-free single-family house floor plan for aging with parents' bedroom on the ground floor

If you do not construct the walls in the bedroom / dressing / bathroom area on the ground floor as load-bearing, you can provide accessibility if needed.

Currently, the door planning in the bedroom and dining area is very unfavorable even without the aspect of accessibility.

It sounds so simple with one can then ...

I had noticed that one can then ...
a) costs strength, energy, and money if at least 2 of these are missing under certain circumstances
b) can find it difficult to adapt to changes

The current solution is not nice regardless of "then..." and looks like an emergency solution.

As the floor plan is designed, it is only suitable for "stair climbing is exhausting" and any stairlift helps with that.

The bathroom is just not acceptable. Apart from the already mentioned defects.

Thank you very much for your criticism, the same things didn’t appeal to me either. You have helped me a lot and I have started over again.

I have now thought that we solve the bedroom situation with a (flat roof) extension, so that we really only add the square meters of the bedroom to the house once.
In the new design, I would place the stairs even more into the technical room and assign half of the pantry to the bathroom to create space for the shower there.

PS: I definitely don’t want to build again. If it becomes too big for me, I’d rather rent a beach house in Thailand when I’m over 67 and spend my last years with my feet in the sand.

Then the consideration for barrier-free construction is basically off the table and you can plan "normally."

How old are you that you think you can't walk stairs at 67? The questionnaire doesn't answer that question :(
