Floor plan "House for in-between" for 2-3.5 persons

So basically, some measurements are missing to at least be able to realistically estimate the rooms and the planned furniture (which unfortunately is often shown a bit small). And then it would be best to always include the north arrow on the screenshot of the floor plan view.

17 cm wall thickness is a poor planning dimension; exterior walls should be planned with 40 cm in this phase, interior walls with 20 cm. This way you get realistic values.

Otherwise, the utility room is supposed to serve for building technology, connections, and washing machine etc.? It’s quite awkwardly accessible.

All users who want to go from their bedrooms to the bathroom have to pass the front door. Although not very visible from the property situation, it’s somehow unpleasant.

With the two large sliding doors in the living area (cost factor should not be underestimated), the possible furniture arrangements are rather limited. Because placing a TV or something in front of the windows is rather counterproductive.

In general, the terrace is more practical together with cooking/dining (direct access to drinks etc. when sitting on the terrace, cooking/grilling in summer, etc.).

If north is rather at the top of the plan, I would try to place the house as far as possible towards the east (shorter driveway), entrance door perhaps also more on the right side of the plan (and thus possibly a smaller hallway). To open up the garden towards the south/west, including the terrace.

Can you name a few things about it? I’d really be interested to know what a stranger would stumble over there

- Technical room not available, not integrable into 5m² utility room - Utility room only accessible through the bathroom, thus the bathroom has two doors that need to be locked. If someone comes into the utility room from outside, the bathroom door is certainly locked because the bathroom user forgot to unlock the utility room door again - When entering the living room, you immediately stumble over the furniture - Corner window in the living room (fashion trend) is blocked by the TV. Depending on the orientation (not checked) watching TV might be a nightmare in some seasons because the sun shines through the window behind the TV and causes glare - Hallway is long and dark - Hallway is furnished so that even in the planning stage furniture stands in front of the double door to the living room. Either the wrong furniture or a wrongly planned hallway - Window with terrace door in the children's room is planned so that practically no wall remains – meaning it must be somehow supported, which is more expensive than necessary - View from the sofa into the kitchen is restless due to the protruding corner of the bedroom ...

I actually thought that a bungalow would be cheaper

Well, I do question your option 3, especially since after adjustments it will turn out to be one size bigger.

you always have some option to get out.

You don’t, as you can clearly see, in your case.

the cost difference between a French door and a floor-to-ceiling window won’t be that big?

Those sliding doors cost a pretty penny.

because the user of the bathroom forgot to unlock the utility room door again

Why would you lock the utility room?

Another argument for me for the bungalow was retirees who might want to buy the thing because they want to live on one level.

? The target group of families wanting a house is much bigger, isn't it?! You have a 1000 sqm plot there, a retiree doesn't get any financing at all. That means if you want to acquire property in old age, it has to be affordable from your own resources, which implies a compact plot. Possibly you waste the plot with a cheap 109 sqm house where the roof cannot be extended.

I am far from that age

I am not. And the house with the small rooms, the large hallway where no wardrobe with 60 cm depth was planned, and the utility room only accessible through the bathroom as well as the narrow storage room as a toilet is practically a no-go. Unfortunately, you cannot exit from the bedroom. Of course, for a nice west-facing garden you can move the house, which has the advantage of a shorter driveway, but honestly? It all belongs to a proper (not expensive) planning.

Basically, you should get out of the apartment mode and make it clear that this is not a flat. I don't quite understand the sentence, what exactly do you mean by that?

You planned an apartment as a floor plan, but not a single-family house.

I throw into the room — regardless of the floor plan and type of house (flat-roof bungalow is the most expensive construction method in terms of square meters!) — that instead of a temporary house as a new build, I would simply consider a plain existing property. Just move in, live there, and if needed (or desired, if the desired plot fits), build the "real" house.

I have read outdoor area. You wait until you get sunburned. So many large windows drive the costs up. In my opinion, the budget is not sufficient. Otherwise, I agree with
