How does the house get onto the plot? Show me… where is north? Where will the parking spaces go?

It seems to me that you are still very much at the beginning and have not dealt enough with the topic of floor plans. A few rough things that immediately stand out (does Heinz von Heiden really offer such a floor plan?): + if the guest room on the ground floor is to become a children's room, it is far too small. With 8 sqm it is hardly furnishable as a guest room anyway + utility room only accessible through the kitchen – do you really want to carry the laundry through the kitchen every time? The door also massively disturbs in the kitchen + stairs directly at the entrance: consider whether you want that, the issue of carrying mud directly upstairs (particularly relevant with children and their friends) + the same applies to the toilet on the ground floor: dirty shoes are left in the wardrobe and then you have to go through there to the toilet every time + bathroom upstairs is very, very large; for that, there is no storage space + if you have to go to the toilet at night, it is a half-world journey All this now just quickly, my tip: look at many more floor plans, with this size much is possible!
Thank you very much for your feedback. We actually already discussed some of your points this morning and have decided to a) make the guest room on the ground floor larger, make the guest bathroom a bit narrower, and then have it align flush with the guest room/study in the hallway b) plan an entrance to the utility room under the stairs and therefore omit the door from the kitchen to the utility room c) reduce the bathroom upstairs a little, and enlarge the master bedroom accordingly
The way to the toilet upstairs is completely fine for us. Regarding the stairs, we still have to visit a few model homes to form a clear opinion. Thank you for the suggestion.
Attached below is a rough sketch of our plot including the house drawing (still a bit smaller here) with garage. The orientation of the sketch corresponds to the cardinal directions (so top = north).

The door from the kitchen to the utility room (or also pantry, right) could also be implemented as a hidden door as part of the kitchen planning, then it looks like a kitchen cabinet door, only it leads to the utility room. Carrying laundry around could be solved with a laundry chute from the bathroom.
I would design the fireplace in the living and dining room a bit as a room divider, making the living room cozier without taking away the open space.
Moving the stairs because of dirty shoes? Mmmmh, there are households where people take off their dirty shoes. If the kids don’t want to take off their shoes, a pointed hint to the kids: there is still the baby hatch, you can keep your shoes on.

That! Basically, a castle in the air is being discussed here.But I can hardly believe it when it comes to the house price. With 12x10 we are talking about roughly 200 sqm of living space. Even at an extremely "cheap" 2000€/sqm you are at 400,000. And for a house of that size, 15k rarely suffice for the upgrade. You can almost blow that just on the electrical work :/

If you now tell me how to get into the house then? Fly in? Make them take their shoes off before entering the house (I find that very embarrassing)? So when a bunch of boys rush into the house who were at the soccer field before, you definitely don’t want to walk through there anymore. And you certainly don’t want them to carry the dirt up to the upper floor into the rooms. I’m speaking from experience.

Thank you very much for the feedback. Heinz von Heiden is certainly one of the cheapest providers on the market. However, the equipment is then not upscale, but cheap to normal.
So far, we are satisfied with the cost breakdown and the equipment.
Underfloor heating, electric shutters, air heat pump, and central ventilation (without heat recovery) are included as standard. The electrical installation will certainly be more expensive, as we currently have no charging station and only one socket on the terrace. We have upgraded with 20 double sockets compared to the standard. We will also have to upgrade the bathrooms because we do not like the standard.
So if we have to invest the KfW subsidy of 26,000 EUR in upgrades, then so be it.
