For comparison with the aerial image in post #8, I tried inserting the floor plan, which does not succeed (blue lines follow the placeholder as drawn by the OP – if I assume measurements other than the house depth to be accurate, no congruence is visible either)

Hello ant, there was a sketch in the aerial photo...
That means I did not insert the exact floor plan.

I already suspected that one can't take it completely literally - but the way it is sketched so roughly, it's just a bit too vague. Hopefully that makes it understandable to you why I consider the entrance to be blocked.

A few impulses:
Do you have a budget for "alternative solutions"? Then drive the vehicles straight into a garage in the basement – along with the building services. This gives you more space for the house design. Freight elevator directly into the kitchen. Think through the "L" consistently and build a "children’s wing" – kids' rooms and children's bathroom as one leg – each room with its own garden access and a narrow corridor as access. The other leg is then a bit deeper and contains the "common room." The upper floor is then for the parents and possibly an office and a roof terrace with planting and its own private atmosphere. Place the stairs so that the way to the children is not too far when they are still small and not too close when they are already teenagers. If you build the children's rooms high enough so that a "sleeping level" can later be inserted, you greatly increase the usable area for the children without building any additional floor space.

Hampshire,

I like it, you lateral thinker!

The play corridor was the very first paper floor plan. Cool idea! Every children's room with access to the garden. But then we preferred to sleep downstairs and have the children's rooms upstairs. In your argument, that would also be the case, just later, when the children have moved out again.

The basement costs at least 90k, the garage driveway with an appropriate slope about 40k more. Plus the fancy stuff with the elevator or freight lift. Values are estimates from the planner of the construction company.
We had actually already discussed that idea as well
But in the end, it’s just not worth it to us or probably exceeds our affordable limit...
