Where are you building?
Who wants to live in the basement? Your child certainly won’t later. Tenants? You wouldn’t put up with that. Because they keep changing, if you even find anyone at all. Not to mention, such an investment never pays off.
Is there a separate entrance for the basement apartment?
How far does the basement protrude from the ground?
Such a thing should only be planned if you're building on a slope.
Show the plot and the entire basement.
Draw the intended furnishing in the floor plan.
First of all, thank you for your reply. Basically, living space is never a mistake in my view in the current times. The usefulness of a basement apartment can certainly be widely debated, but the living space does not necessarily have to be used as such. For reasons related to the social situation, we have deliberately built a multi-family house, because besides the factor of additional living space, the ongoing costs can also be shared. We have a basement apartment of about 100 sqm with a spacious terrace plus garden, which is currently sufficient for 2 people. Even with a child, it is still possible to live here. This is where the currently planned basement apartment/space for rent comes into play. A study or ironing room/recreational room can easily be set up here without immediately evicting the upstairs tenant from the apartment.
We have placed a light well made of 1-meter-wide wall panels so that they are 2 meters away from the basement wall. Additionally, there is a step down via a row with shorter wall panels; in the intermediate space, planting will later be placed. Thanks again for the many ideas in one of my other threads. The fall protection will be installed later.
