I think it's perfectly fine if you say: better small and mine than big and too expensive. You can also be happy with smaller living spaces. I do need more air and room around me, but I am occasionally surprised by the proportions when people say "I need over 200 sqm, we are 4 people."
Now about your semi-detached house: You should get the maximum out of your minimum area. You have a nice southwest location, something should be made out of that. Say goodbye to a huge hallway and stick to an entrance area/wardrobe. With one child and no basement, you can design the staircase open, e.g. in the dining area, it doesn’t need a connection to a hallway! In the bathroom you can do without the T-configuration, a simple arrangement of sanitary fixtures looks more elegant and spacious than additional walls in the bathroom.
I would be interested in the floor plan from the building contractor!
We currently have an open staircase and our child always complains that we are too loud. Hence the attempt to separate the living room and the staircase. We can gladly do without the T version in the bathroom. I just thought the idea of separating the shower and toilet was simply brilliant. We definitely have to make compromises. Unfortunately, due to my job I tend to overthink, and before I make compromises I always try to weigh all possibilities.
A small addition to YPG, either you set yourself a measure of space and try to get the maximum benefit out of it, or you define the benefit and try to minimize the space. Getting the maximum benefit out of a minimal area is not possible. You have to limit one of the two factors, otherwise the math doesn’t work and you get sidetracked.
Yes, the dear MiniMax principle. You try it over and over and fail ... thanks for the hint! Primarily for me, the budget counts. Then the practical benefit. Then beauty and luxury.
Attached is the first plan from the general contractor and the ground floor with furniture.

I've rearranged it a bit for you. I wouldn't want to build it like this myself, but I just used your specifications:

...but you wrote that
I like the correction better.

The plan from your GU is better than yours. If you want a separation between the stairs and the living area, then simply extend the stair wall and leave the rest.

I think if the entrance is at the front, the WC will be to the right of the entrance and the utility room will be larger. The hallway will then be straight and much brighter. The utility room will now be somewhat smaller, but better usable because it is rectangular.
