Ground floor approx. 100 sqm, upper floor expandable (planned bathroom, 2 children's rooms, 1 storage room)

It will just stay at three rooms (2 children's rooms and 1 bathroom with a bathtub)

Please keep in mind the load capacity for a filled bathtub

The windows are currently estimated to be 5-8 cm below the beams. But that's because of the 24 cm roller shutter box on each window

Then appearances are deceiving – good for you

and I was still able to sleep underneath it without any problems in my youth.

But not sit or, for example, read
It is what it is.

Where exactly is the hole? Can it still be moved or shifted?

What do you want to move there? The house is practically finished... Moving the stairwell means moving the stairs. Where to?

I don't know how the ceiling is made. I see a lot of wood there. The stairs could possibly be made steeper and the opening smaller. Specified are 15x 26cm = 3.90m. But that doesn't seem to match the measurements on the plan.

The stairwell can no longer be moved. I will measure the exact location again this evening.

The carpenter has marked the start of the stairs on the ground floor. I will also check that again this evening. The stairs have not been ordered yet. Only quotes have been obtained.

The height to be overcome is 2.77 m - 0.22 m floor construction. I need to measure the beam thickness + 0.10 m floor construction upper floor.

I will also provide the window position this evening.

I have not checked the roof pitch. The carpenter certainly would not have deducted 5 degrees there.

The empty conduits have been commissioned but not yet installed, as the work is not advanced enough.

Thanks for the tip regarding the bathtub. We had not thought of that.

Actually just sitting on the edge of the bed, but I could read there for hours.

PS: In the floor plan from kaho, north-south would have to be swapped. The stair opening is to the south, but the bathroom must be in the left northern room due to the piping.

Freestyler; obviously still young? Ok. 1) Finish building it and be happy. 2) Don’t drift apart, paying off the debt and marriage are marathons. 3) Don’t make the stairs steep. You will get older. 4) If the 160 cm bed is too narrow or you become too wide, the upstairs is finished. This house is max for 4 people. Keep that in mind when planning a family. All the best, Karsten PS Where is it? Ours is in OH-Nord. Yours?

Ok, don’t fall down while doing that.

PS: in kaho’s floor plan, north and south need to be swapped. The stair opening faces south, but the bathroom needs to be in the left northern room because of the piping

How do you want to do that?

Possibly, the staircase on the ground floor could still get a 1/4 turn. That would make it shorter on the upper floor. Making the hole smaller is certainly possible, isn’t it?

I have to disagree with Karsten: Silence, no. I would have agreed if the current complainers had not warned beforehand - but they did. So I can fully join Climbee’s shaking of the head.

If I now read that the children’s room downstairs should not be a children’s room at all, then everything is clear: if a child comes, a new build will be done.

In the attic, it won’t work for living rooms. Guest and ironing rooms, yes. But nothing more. If there were a children’s room downstairs, the attic would be perfect as a playroom. That means the child downstairs would get by with less because nothing would have to be tidied up there.

I don’t see a real conversion with floor construction and ceiling paneling here; the term “development reserve” has obviously been misinterpreted from “do it later” to “just plan it later.”

What has come out is a bungalow with lots of space for dancing, romping, and drying laundry above.

So: sockets upstairs for the iron and the computer, so that until the child goes to preschool maybe the little office will still suffice as a children’s room; and then I’d say in the sense of “after the game is before the game,” that also applies here to building savings.
