Floor plans for single-family house, approx. 140 m², without basement

Can you place the floor plan over the plan section? Somehow my imagination is failing me right now.

Gladly

With Town & Country, the offer was already quite different as soon as we mentioned KFW55.... And that was in a direction that made it very unattractive afterwards..

That is true. Unfortunately, that applies to everyone who does not build with ETICS, right? We are also still looking for a company that can provide us with an affordable KfW55-compliant, monolithic wall. (At this point, however, I do not want to start a discussion about ETICS/monolithic, there are already enough of those on the forum )

The house would have too little light for me in some places - especially on the ground floor. In the kitchen, for example, there are only just under 12.5%.

That is also true. Honestly, we don’t know any house that has more than a small window in the kitchen, so we didn’t really think much about it. Floor-to-ceiling windows, a suggestion that already came from the family, we don’t find very practical by the way; we think they take up a lot of space. Also, the building plot with all 400 sqm lots is quite tight and we find floor-to-ceiling windows a bit too open there. Otherwise, in a large house on a big plot of land, of course, a very nice thing.

Just to ask really simply: are you even allowed to drive onto the property from that side? To me, it looks like it's specified that way on the plan at first.

Just a really basic question: are you even allowed to access the property from that side of the site?
To me, it looks like it’s specified on the plan at first glance.

I asked at the building authority, and they said:
"The driveway can also be placed elsewhere, but not in the curve area. The junction area of the two streets must be kept clear in any case. If there are no further deviations from the development plan, in our opinion the construction project can be carried out under the approval exemption procedure. Ultimately, it is up to your planner to decide whether to apply for an approval procedure or not."

Maybe a further explanation why the carport is at the bottom instead of at the top.
At the top would either mean at least 6m of space above the house, which would cause us to lose garden area towards the southeast. Or at the top in front of the house, on the pictures top left in the corner. However, then there would be no space left for visitor parking in front of the carport. Additionally, from our lay perspective, the slope is easier to compensate at the current position than at the top.

I already know kitchens with more than one window or larger windows. You have to like floor-to-ceiling - I'm with you on that; on the upper floor I also find the 2 m standard windows per room completely okay.

On the one hand, there is still an active thread about how and where laundry is dried in the new building.

On the other hand, I would be interested in the age or generation of the family council who think that the floor-to-ceiling window takes away space for furniture.

In a Flair or other Town & Country houses, I would be more concerned about getting light into the sacred halls than about creating space for furniture of all kinds (possibly a Gelsenkirchen Baroque).

But my main point is actually: wrong house on the plot. I tend to a maximum house width of 7.5 meters. But that is not available as an affordable standard. Therefore, either mirror everything along the diagonal and thus have access from the west or put the carport in front by the street so that you have to turn 90 degrees left from the driveway into the carport.

As it is now, several scratches on the cars are only a matter of time. Halloween sends its regards.

Seriously: you are just restricting yourselves with this.

Regarding the upper floor: both children should be planned to the west and around 15 sqm each. That way, a proper storage room could be created.

Downstairs, the utility room and office should also be provided in these sizes.

This is not the original floor plan, is it?
