In the upper floor, we planned the large children's room so that we can divide the big children's room into two rooms and use one as a guest room or dressing room.
But you can’t simply separate it because of the door and window positions.
For me, some window and door positions were set without much thought, for example in the storage room on the upper floor: a 60 cm deep built-in closet behind the door would be optimal, but that would block the window.
The idea later is that one of the kids might take over the house and my wife and I would downsize technically from the house side.
Why should one of them inherit the house and not the other?! That will only cause hard feelings. Also, an inheritance doesn’t justify a granny flat.
However, the two rooms wouldn’t be big enough....
I have to mention that as a child you need more play space on the floor, whereas as a teenager or young adult you need more storage space. Over 30 square meters is much too exaggerated. At some point, a room is saturated in size and can only become uncomfortable. Also, such a narrow layout isn’t nice.
I consider the rooms unplanned: on a large area, simply partitioned off. Not even the wardrobe is built in. The result is rooms that extend the whole length of the house, the child in a difficult age sleeps next to the parents, the stairs are in the entrance/dirt area, the kitchen is simply impractical and cannot be separated if necessary.
Basically, it is an inflated standard town villa with basement. Not that town villas are bad, but here there is absolutely no planning that I could expect in 200 sqm.
We were in Canada in a B&B that was planned so that the three children's rooms were used as guest rooms
That can be done if it’s well planned.
However, the guests then usually have to eat in the matrimonial kitchen and disturb the marital peace.
Unfortunately, I don’t see the basement here; it wasn’t shown to me.
But it’s not important to me either, because it’s actually unnecessary. A beautiful house with two levels, where two children’s rooms of 15–18 sqm each with the utility rooms in the basement form a later granny flat, makes much more sense.
