We wanted to show you the layout of the rooms and see if they are sensibly arranged?
The layout could be correct from the location perspective. But there is a difference between a "sketch of where rooms are supposed to be" and a good or bad design.
Here, I would rather place the utility room accessible to the access road, otherwise the piping route becomes too long. Then you should consider whether you want to give the children the garden side, or/and the west side, or if they should sleep facing the street.
I consider a 3-meter built-in wardrobe in the bedroom obligatory. A hallway upstairs where you can move around brings more spaciousness than an extra square meter in the rooms ever would.
The hallway on the ground floor feels cramped.
The kitchen could probably be nicely furnished, but the central door situated like a portal leading to the utility room does not make sense to me. Only the already mentioned path, always through the kitchen and virtually the living room to get the ladder or cleaning supplies would annoy me. An open kitchen is inherently part of the living area, not the utility space.
Storage room in the south… also unclear.
In my opinion, outsourcing a shower that is unnecessary in the guest toilet and making it accessible from the cloakroom is more a shot in the foot than a great idea.
Full agreement!
The separate small toilet serves exclusively for guests who come over for barbecues, etc.
That is clear…
Downstairs there is no cloakroom but a guest room for the family, etc. We thought it would be a nice idea if they had their own shower bathroom.
… however, you cannot afford this “luxury” on 135 sqm. While you need sufficient cloakroom space daily for all family members, you rather plan a “luxury room” with a private bathroom that is used only sporadically.
That is rather o_O (I am at a loss for words, the emoticon says it better)
Later in age, when we no longer want to climb stairs, our idea was to use this as a bedroom.
Later in age, you will rather curse both toilet units downstairs because they are practically unusable, too small; the guest room is also poorly furnished due to the bunch of doors.
The idea with the pre-installed kitchen pipes came from our family circle, as it is paying off for them now. The children have their own domain upstairs with their own kitchen. That’s why we included this idea.
But that won’t work for you: downstairs there is no adequate residential unit possible.
