Do I understand correctly that the main owner has a large balcony and the tenant of the basement apartment has the garden? If that’s the case, I would clearly swap the basement and upper floor.
Then the children have garden access from their room, and the tenant upstairs gets a balcony.
Regarding the plans:
Basement:
- The living area of the basement apartment is very difficult to furnish, the bathroom is extremely large compared to the rest of the apartment.
- Why is there another WC in "Keller2"?
Ground floor:
- You’re already working on the kitchen planning. But something nice should be possible in this room.
- Is the living room really going to be furnished like that? With a room width of ~3.40 m, after deducting the door, about 2.50 m remain for the couch.
Our couch is 3.30 m wide.
Just a thought, it’s best to draw the furniture with real dimensions.
- How wide is the balcony?
As far as I can see, only on the part with the "bay window" can a garden table be placed, but then it also blocks the access to the house. Since this is supposed to be the main terrace, I find that very unfortunate.
Upper floor:
- Master bedroom as a walk-through room is very unfavorable.
- I would probably make the bathroom a bit smaller, shift the guest room further towards the top of the plan, so that access is still possible. This would also make the narrow children’s bathroom bigger and easier to furnish.
I don’t want anyone trampling over my head, so there are no tenants above me in my house. Yes, the tenant has garden access and we have "only" a balcony with a staircase to the garden. The basement becomes quite dark because of the balcony and we would miss rooms if we moved into the basement.
The large bathroom for the tenant and the unfavorable large living space is indeed impractical. But we still haven’t developed a better idea.
There is a WC planned in the basement so that during garden parties or while gardening, one doesn’t have to trudge through the entire house.
In the living room there will be a sofa, the TV on the wall, and a display cabinet. Nothing more. The furnished layout shown is purely the planner’s fantasy.
In what way is the master bedroom a walk-through room? No one is supposed to enter there except the parents.
Garage integrated in the house? Why not make it living space instead, probably cheaper than insulating the thermal envelope above/below/sideways.
The distribution of bathrooms and the technical room in the house worries me a bit. A lot of space is lost for pipes.
Master bathroom very large / children’s bathroom too small? Overall, I find the upper and basement floors somewhat convoluted.
I think the basement apartment is very well designed.
The garage is a sensitive topic. What you see here is a year of tough negotiation between my husband and me. He wanted a double garage.
The distribution of the technical rooms is not yet finalized. The planning is not far enough along.
What exactly do you find convoluted about the upper floor?
