City villa floor plan - suggestions for changes?

Is the wardrobe space in the dressing room sufficient for you? The bedroom is too narrow. You only have a few centimeters to the wall.

The child's room would need to be wider. It is too much of a corridor.

I would try to build a staircase to the attic. It is your only storage space. You won't voluntarily carry anything via the pull-down ladder.

Add a window to the windowless wall of the children's room. The north-facing child also gets some sun this way and the south rooms do not turn into caves due to shading.

The wardrobe is quite narrow and blocks the door to the practice.

Check what requirements are placed on the building services for rental of a second residential unit.

The grandparents' residential unit is not senior-friendly. Walker, aids in the bathroom like a seat, sanitary chair etc. I would make it more comfortable there.

I would extend the intermediate building and insert a small storage room. I fear that will become the leaf trap.

Where are the parking spaces and garbage bins planned?

Is the closet space in the dressing room enough for you? The bedroom is too narrow. You only have a few centimeters until the wall. The child room would need to be wider. It’s too much of a tube. I would try to build a staircase up to the attic. It is your only storage space. You voluntarily don’t carry anything up via the pull-out staircase. Another window for the children’s room on the windowless wall. This way the north child also gets some sun and the south rooms don’t turn into caves because of shading. The wardrobe is quite narrow and blocks the door to the practice. Check what requirements are set for the building services, for renting out a second residential unit. The grandparents’ residential unit is not senior-friendly. Walker, aids in the bathroom like a seat, commode chair etc. I would design it quite a bit more comfortably there. I would lengthen the annex and add a small storage room. I fear that will be the leaf trap. Where are the parking spaces and trash bins planned?

Many, many thanks again for all the suggestions and hints!! We have now changed our house so far that we like it 100%. Only the grandparents’ granny flat is now causing us headaches. We hadn’t noticed that the bathroom would really be THAT small.. we have now simulated it with a bathroom planner and it would be far too small for my parents (my mother sometimes needs a walker). Do you have an idea how the bathroom can be enlarged? We thought about a complete grid extension of 60cm on this side, if that is possible on the builder’s side. That would definitely enlarge the shower and loosen up the whole thing a bit.

Just an idea. Maybe saddle the intermediate floor and the grandparents' house and bring up there

Thanks again very much for all the suggestions and tips!! Our house has now been changed so that we like it 100%.

Do you maybe have an updated plan?

What kind of room is that next to the bathroom? Washing machine?

But please not the narrow children's room! It is about as bad as the bathroom in the granny flat. I'm afraid you lack imagination.

Do you perhaps have an updated plan?

Yes, exactly, there would be space for a washing machine (but only in case of possible rental). I wash my parents' laundry together with mine, so currently this room would only serve as a storage room

Here are the current plans:

But please not the tube-shaped children's room! That's just as bad as the bathroom in the granny flat. I'm afraid you lack imagination.

You don't have to be mean right away... After all, we're not experts and are doing our best to make the house perfect for us.. The "tube room" is gone. See the post above. Those are the latest designs
