Floor plan evaluation and double garage problem?

From which direction is the property accessed and approached? SW or East?

From the East

Unfortunately, few to no measurements are visible, nor how the house and ultimately the garage are positioned on the property. Is the site plan oriented to the north?

Exactly, the plan is oriented to the north. Where the house and garage will be located has not yet been decided.

I find the floor plan okay. I would give the guest WC downstairs a bit more depth and make the utility room slightly narrower. I would also take another look at the furnishing of the bathrooms and you should already start working on a plan for the kitchen.
The crucial question is, how is the house positioned on the property, where is the driveway and where are the parking spaces? Access (front door/driveway) in the East would be wonderful. Otherwise, it will get interesting.

We use the utility room for laundry and storage. My wife finds it rather too small. The front door is supposed to face north, the driveway is in the East. In the Southwest, there will only be a garden driveway.

Thank you for your answers

I would mirror the house. Then the utility room would be in the east. If you then revise the area a bit, you can also attach a garage in the east.

Are there also a few measurements of the property ... and, if you have already decided on house access from the north ... then you must have already given some thought to the location of the house and garage.

I can see a west-facing orientation here much better with the entrance in the east. Then you have the view of the garden in the west, where the children play. In addition, the children's rooms are located in the south + one in the west, thus in the brightest spots.

Yes, of course: approx. 43m long (north and south side) and approx. 29m wide. We haven't yet decided exactly where the house should be. The idea was to drive onto the property from the east and be able to drive directly into the garage (garage door facing east).

Where exactly the house should be located, we have not decided yet.

But that would be important, because only in this way can it be assessed whether a floor plan makes sense or whether you are planning a window directly against the garage wall. Take a large sheet of paper and draw the property to scale 1:100. Then create corresponding scale templates for the house (be sure to include windows), garage, terrace, garden shed, etc., and experiment a bit to see how the different variants work. You can then post the result here.
