Does the guest room have to be that big?
Do you have guests often?
I calculate it like this. 15m² guest room*2,500 EUR/m². That’s 37,500 EUR, for which you can accommodate the guest lifelong in a hotel, with breakfast...

Even the HAR is much too big for my taste, even with closets.

12.5m² for a children's room I find borderline. It should be at least 14m². And preferably the same size, that will save you the tedious debates about who gets the bigger room when you build new and have it in your hands.

I find the living room too small, scrap the guest room ;)

Is home office ever going to be a topic? Then use the guest room as an office with 10m² and enlarge the living room.

Then you can also forget about building it... (otherwise it will be used as an office/storage...) Too small for 5 people living/eating/sleeping. Children's room is a joke. 3.5 x 3.5 m? A bed is 2 m long. I don't see any beds. Hallway upstairs dark?! Ok, air space, is the hallway upstairs illuminated from above? But "rabbit hutches," hallway size upstairs and air space don't fit together anyway!

Well, that would only be nice to have in the end but nothing essential, but I’ll take up the ideas anyway



See above the site plan from the development plan Garage/Carport is marked on the ground floor plan. The access is hard to see but is marked in red



We have such an insert from Ikea. The little one is not 1 yet, but in the first year



Thanks for the suggestions. The utility room in the carport only works there, see site plan. I would of course also find it nicer in the east.



We also don’t find the utility room suitable yet, see original post.

The 12.5 sqm is not the floor area. We had much smaller rooms back then, that worked too. The children are also not in the house forever. That’s why we would rather use the guest room as a "children’s playroom" with a home office workspace.

The basic idea with the guest room in that size was that you would still have a bedroom on the ground floor, should there be any staircase restrictions one day. We are also still considering whether to assign the room downstairs completely to the living-dining area and only separate it if necessary/in emergencies (there is a K3?!).


Do you mean the corridor needs a window? Maybe you can solve that with a skylight. The architect is still checking whether the staircase works like that or if maybe there is an extension in the entrance area. Unfortunately, we have not yet received any cross-sections/views.

Thanks to all tip-givers for the suggestions.

Especially laundry/side entrance/utility room is still an unresolved topic for us. Maybe rather washing machine/dryer in the bathroom after all. The core question for us is also where to put the laundry for drying sensibly when it is too wet outside.

Many greetings

Isn't the carport located in the north? The site plan and the floor plan view are oriented to the north - aren't they?

Yes, they are oriented. It would be placed on the north/west side.

Yes, that used to be the case with the 12m². But the children are guaranteed to be in the house until they are 18, that’s at least 17 more years with you ;) You probably drive a car bigger than a Golf 2, right? Back then, the Golf 2 was enough... At 160m², I see no need to deny the children an extra 2m². Especially since the question is whether you need 3 children's rooms. In case of emergency, there are stairlifts. If you can't crawl, you usually have other problems than not having a sleeping place on the ground floor. In that case, you can also do something with drywall.
