Location of city villa or single-family house on 500 m2 plot - rectangular

Dear all,

progress is being made.
The building application has been submitted. Likewise, the demolition permit and the application for the misuse of residential space (Berlin, after all). Now we must wait.

By the way, I have now bitten the bullet and commissioned both the increase in living space (12.8m² vs. original offer, approx. 6m² vs. last draft) and ceiling heights (raising the ground floor by half a row of bricks to achieve at least 265 clear ceiling height).
The area enlargement is across the entire house depth, as the bay window would have become significantly more expensive (sorry ). I mainly wanted to help the children's rooms, as especially the middle one had turned out very small and the other two also had quite limited usable space. It also helps the kitchen a little.

Furthermore, the general contractor has finally commented on the crediting of the window services. And I think it’s a positive surprise:
-22,300 EUR (for 17 windows, 6 of which are floor-to-ceiling).
What do you think? Surely you can also find something elsewhere with that and especially fulfill the desire for higher (than 225) windows...
I am naturally particularly interested in the opinion of .

Attached is the updated floor plan from the architect, as it is also in the building application.
Please note that the furnishing and especially the kitchen are only from the architect; we now have a different . The staircase might still be rotated to create a bit more space in the entrance area. I am still discussing this with my partner, who prefers it as in the draft.

For comparison: old draft from the architect with views (which have not changed significantly, stairwell window will be a bit smaller) and site plan (house is accordingly a bit wider (as seen from the street)).

Best regards

Application for the misuse of residential space (Berlin, of course).

Seriously, does the residential building in Berlin have to be deconsecrated like a church before it can be demolished?

Well, there is officially a housing shortage, and to be honest, I have very ambivalent feelings about the subject. On the one hand, as a citizen of the city, I welcome measures against misuse, on the other hand, as a builder, I would wish for a short administrative process when I build two new single-family homes according to the Energy Saving Ordinance on the land where previously a makeshift garden shed stood. An acknowledgment of receipt of the building application could simply be passed on as a demolition permit and misuse permit combined in one, through official assistance. But well, after all, we are in former Prussia... What do you actually say about the credit amount for the windows? Do it externally? Best regards Tolentino

sorry @kaho674

Katja sends her regards:
If you reply to Tolentino: Send a nice greeting: "Solid thing".

Oh nice to hear from her, I hope it will be sorted out with the admin here, thanks for passing it on!

But well, we are after all in former Prussia...

It is much worse here with us: on the left bank of the Rhine, the old habits are French, on the right bank Prussian – in terms of European uniformity, one is almost glad if Roman law still applies in some partial areas.

externally done?

I had overlooked that or considered it to be a designated item price. In my assessment, it is so close to the price that I would not open the issue of another supplier (and another warranty party) for it.

I hope that will still get sorted out with the admin here,

I love dry humor. But Katja is also only away here
