It rather seems to me that you haven’t planned any yet,
Yes, I have planned several, I started with a doodle on a DIN A4 sheet using a ballpoint pen.
Built none yet ;).
and here I would rather call you a "planning beginner"; "part-time planner" sounds misleading, as if you dealt at least part-time – but apparently not with residential homes – with planning.
And if that were the case? :p
For a beginner, you’re tackling quite a demanding source of inspiration.
What am I supposed to read between the lines?
You’d best name the development plan (without a link !!!, in the format "Posemuckel Nr. 258 Am Stoppelacker"), and also the "donor design" of your tuning attempts.
"Donor design" = gable roof house 229m² from the house blogger.
You have a plot for which many prospective builders would "kill" just because of its size
We are aware, what caliber can you recommend :).
- that should really make a smart investment in a professional planner worthwhile for you. Even if the hillside location is really mild (and should remain so) – which would then be a strong "rather luxury" vote in the basement question – I see large-caliber landmines lying here for a layman. Even as a "millionaire" (I don’t know how galactically your reserves perform) I wouldn’t waste money on omitting an architect.
Thanks for the question, of course we will involve an architect, either from a general contractor or a freelance architect. As already said, we are just at the beginning and we like a gable roof. Prepared for further talks with an architect / construction company, we are grateful for input on the floor plan. And in the first step, we would leave the architect free rein with our wishes.
From that I read single-story.
You would build a bungalow on that?
