Apart from the fact that I also find it a pity to take away any say from the potential future wife –
a user had attached a mother-in-law bungalow to his normal house. I thought it had charm that way, you have the floor plan of a normal house and still an apartment on the ground floor. Your plot is not small.
I see it differently, there are plenty of things where the woman can still have a say. Garden, furnishings, design, colors, but as I said, that is just my approach.
I had something similar in mind once. (Is that from the Schwörer house catalog?) Luckily, a representative talked me out of it. Through the windows, you can only see in and not out. That’s only something if you care about the exterior look. If you want something for yourself, you either build a proper full floor or invest the money in skylights.
I would love to build a two-story, but apparently, that’s not possible since the two residential barns (to the north and east) are not considered. In the end, only three buildings were used for comparison, and the next large residential building is three, other large buildings aren’t either.
"My mother would like a barrier-free apartment, but with a small study or similar. She is giving the plot and should therefore get a comfortable apartment on the ground floor, not a living hole.
I am single but want a house where a family of five feels comfortable. Preferably with a sauna and hobby room. Because of budget xy, I would probably have to do without a basement but would find it good if I could first live alone on the ground floor (the office would then be my bedroom). I could do the attic conversion later alone, but the design should already include 3 children’s rooms or 3 rooms plus bedroom etc. Technology can gladly be shared with the apartment, laundry and terrace please separated from mom, because the future wife could be a bit difficult regarding my mother."
Wow, thank you very much for that, it is exactly what I needed for the next step.
Dear Sir or Madam,
My mother and I want to build a house together on one plot.
My mother’s apartment should be barrier-free but equipped with a small study. The kitchen, dining room, and living room should not be designed in an I-shape. The living room should have a fireplace. About one third of the property should belong to the apartment.
I am single but want a house where a family of five feels comfortable. Preferably with a sauna (for two people to lie down) and two small home offices. Due to an overall budget of about €700,000, I would probably have to do without the basement but would find it good if I could first live alone on the ground floor (the office would then be my bedroom). I could do the attic conversion later alone, but the design should already include 3 children’s rooms or 3 rooms plus bedroom etc., plus the two small offices.
It is also desired that a garage or carport for two cars is planned.
Technology can gladly be shared with the apartment, but access to the apartment, laundry, and terrace please separated from the apartment.
The living room should have a fireplace. The kitchen should be open and preferably equipped with a kitchen island.
Best regards
Can I really write it this plainly? In my field, I would get it sent back immediately because nothing is specified: At least I would have thought I have to write how large each room should be at minimum, whether with or without a bathtub. It strongly reminds me of:
Do you provide the existing documents from the building authority? The site plan? The answered questions to the building authority? Or do you just describe the property like it is, this big?
Thanks again for the help so far.
If you have a design from an architect, come back.
I link you as weekend reading another current parallel thread, although a two-story, but also a topic with 3 children plus apartment.
I only found the double staircase unfavorable; I had already started reading the report.
Unfortunately, your picture tells me nothing at all, what does "TK" and the "M" mean?
TK = technology? M = mobility?
That is certainly a valuable hint to the readers if your state building code sees it differently. As far as I know, the majority of state building codes refer to the underlying floor.
What a mess, and I thought it was the same everywhere, only the 2/3 or 3/4 rule is different.
Do the companies know at what height the roof has to start, because I cannot find anything.
My ideas were a gable roof with 10° or half-hipped roof with 60° and 10° from the 2.3m line: (I know 22° is recommended everywhere).
The mother’s apartment is maximally barrier-free in marketing terms. However, it does not meet the requirements of seniors with handicaps.
Take a look at nullbarriere.
If she has a senior handicap, she has to go somewhere else and she knows that. Then hopefully she can live reasonably well there from the rent.
I would not find the idea of a single-family house with an attached small bungalow for the mother bad. Take a look at Allkauf Haus. They have various multi-generation houses.
Thanks, I will take a look at Allkauf Haus and then write to three companies.
