Floor Plan Check City Villa 145 sqm

[ATTACH alt="Lageplan Flitzpiepe.jpg"]56040[/ATTACH] Results in a nice large garden and lots of light in the house.

I have also considered it that way. However, the long path from the driveway to the front door bothers me a bit here.

New idea: Arrange it as proposed. Do not use a prefabricated garage but build it with masonry and add a second door from the garage to the utility room. What do you estimate the costs for 6x3 and flat roof (requirement of the development plan) would be? I originally had 10k planned for the prefabricated garage.

Or is something like this also possible with a prefabricated garage?

Do not take a prefabricated garage but rather brick it and have a second door from the garage into the utility room.

I (am known for my fundamental conviction of the superfluity of such passages and) see no necessity to switch to a brick garage for this wish. Especially for construction weeks, prefabricated garages are unbeatable (aesthetically in the same league with 8 cm reinforced concrete wall thickness compared to 15 cm aerated concrete or more). I estimate the passage cutout to be in the high three-figure range.

I find the arrangement in post #27 the most appealing. I would approach from the south without turning and reverse into the garage with the north gate, then you can drive out forwards again in a curve.

If you want to save costs, just take a prefabricated garage with a door at the back and then walk directly to your north-facing entrance door. Alternatively, you can also take a plastered timber frame garage with a side door into the utility room. We had it custom-made, it wasn’t as expensive as masonry and doesn’t require an extra wall to the house. Saves centimeters. But the extra front door always costs more...

Also in my case? Quite a few linked conditions come together.

(...) I see no need to switch to a masonry garage for this request.

Great, I wouldn’t have any other reason for a masonry one.

I estimate the passage opening at the high three-digit range.

I could live with that.

Good point and a pragmatic approach. With the door I only see the drawback that I would have to lock and unlock it additionally (in case a bike or something is stored in the garage) when I come home.
I hadn’t considered timber framing. Is it standing on a/the slab or is the driveway simply paved?

Regarding the door, I only see the limitation that I have to lock and unlock it additionally.

However, I would recommend this for the door into the house as well. A garage door is easy to pry open, and then a potential burglar has all the time in the world to work on the passage door and is then inside the house! With the simple garage-garden door, at least "only" the bicycle gets stolen.

I hadn't considered a wooden frame. Is it standing on the ground slab or is the driveway simply paved?

It stands on a ground slab in our case. But it would also have worked with pad foundations and the rest paved.
