I have said everything I wanted to say about the floor plan. But since I just wrote it somewhere else, I'll quote myself regarding the granny flat in general
Compromises are okay. But subordinating the whole house to a way of life that is not obvious and restrictive only leads to dissatisfaction.
Many have no guests and hobbies until the children leave the house. But I think you have to weigh that yourself.
While the argument of the granny flat for possible family members (children) is often used, in my opinion one should simply consider the most obvious thing before cutting off half of the house by separating the usually upper floor and then wanting to live on 80 sqm with a small shower bathroom. Namely, the children move to another city, want to live in their own little house with family, and then one or two rooms, namely the old children's rooms, can be used for visits from grandchildren and new hobbies, for which there is then also time and inspiration.
Many here no longer think of the obvious at all. Only the extreme worst cases: comfort and luxury/size in first place, and when children are grown, then a granny flat for them and restricting oneself from 200 to 30-40%.
I see in very rare cases that people choose that "in old age" as an option. …
