Floor plan single-family house for two - opinions welcome

Is that supposed to be a bat dormer in "Arbeiten 1"?
And despite two offices, there should only be a single garage?

To me, the ridge direction here looks more like N-S instead of E-W (?)

No, not a bat dormer, a trapezoid dormer. I just couldn’t show it. And office actually means a personal retreat. No home office or anything like that takes place there. Only the tax declaration and similar personal matters. We will indeed have only one car there.
The north arrow is rotated. Maybe it would have been wiser to rotate the house.

That is consistent.

From my point of view, rightly so. Try placing the furniture to scale as a test. Always going through the dressing room from the home office to the toilet would be annoying.

Very pragmatic. What does your heart say?

The staircase situation is, as already wrote, something to reconsider.

[*]Place the access to the 2nd study through the first one, then the rooms will be more practical.
[*]Make sure you have access to the bathroom upstairs from the hallway. (see above)
[*]Go through the furnishing and your routes, does that fit your lifestyle?
[*]The pantry is currently very modern but in this format questionable from my point of view – only a few shelves are possible. Optimized routes would be an access from the hallway, saving a lot of walking after shopping.
[*]The captain’s element is not functionally necessary; if you love it, keep it – I find it somewhat contrived.
[*]Do you have to build square? If not, you can get a better room layout (and less hallway space) – unless you are exactly into this ephemeral trend.
[*]The windows could be somewhat larger, especially in the living room on the ground floor.
[*]Have you paid attention to what you look out at from the windows, what kind of light you will get...?
[*]The side entrance is a great idea if you have a room behind it that you can use as a "mudroom" – for example for a dog – or is the Corvette getting a garage? The big gasoline engines smell quite a bit, I wouldn’t want that inside the house.

For the budget, I would build something a bit more inspired. The design seems very conservative to me within what "people do nowadays" – like a Mercedes C-Class sedan. Every person is different, maybe that’s exactly what you want.

We already know that it is a house built in a very conventional manner, but that is exactly what we want. Rather boring. The plot is 21.68 m wide, so the width of the house cannot be enlarged arbitrarily. Instead of a Corvette, an electric car is planned :cool:. But a dog indeed. Access to the bathroom is indeed an alternative.

The north arrow is rotated.

I saw that, but the house axis is just as right-left as the compass: so N-S instead of E-W (?)

The staircase is supposed to be a quarter-turn staircase.

then you should also draw a quarter-turn one. However, a space-saving staircase, which is installed in terraced houses, is probably rather an awkward foreign body in a hallway that is over 20 sqm.

In our current house, it reaches a clear headroom height of 2 m after about 3 m.

… Yours drawn is 2.40 m long…

We already know that it is a house built in a very conventional way, but that is exactly what we want. Rather boring.

On the contrary: the boring standard basis can be quite clearly recognized in the construction. What you have done – distorting it somewhat on the upper floor so that four more than generous rooms have space there. The ground floor follows along. Thus, upstairs, although doable, rather an unsolved Tetris has emerged. What remains is volume… 250 sqm.

The plot is 21.68 m wide, so the width of the house cannot be arbitrarily increased.

I believe you that if you had a 30-meter-wide plot, the house would become even wider ;) Personally, I find it somewhat sad to give the open-plan area a bone shape in a 13-meter-long house and to have the narrowest point there, in the space that needs the most area. Overall, I give you the tip to have the house planned by an architect. The purpose is not simply to stretch the external dimensions to accommodate a number of rooms. It should somehow work and fit together… big house, big staircase, big wall surface, big windows, big hallway, then also access to the bathroom from there, etc. Then it also will not happen that the maximum house height is exceeded and other regulations are overlooked.

I saw that, but the house axis is just as much east-west as the compass: so N-S instead of E-W (?)

I don't understand the question. The entrance is in the east.

I believe you, if you had 30 meters of property width, then the house would become even wider ;) I personally find it somewhat sad to give the open space a bone shape in a house that is 13 meters long, and there, in the area that needs the most space, it gets the narrowest spot. True, there really is no reason to constrict the dining area.
