New construction of an approximately 8x11 semi-detached house, assessment of floor plan and windows

One more addition: We hoped to somewhat separate the living area from the kitchen. Therefore, not a completely open floor plan.

I would like to advise you to see something like this live. With and without a wall.

Bicycle in the basement? They stand with us in the shed or garage. Even if they cost 5000 euros each, after the third time lugging the bike around this tiny staircase corner, the pious resolutions are over.

Teenie kids and kitchen partition? - insignificant stuff compared to lifelong claustrophobic living space.

Well, each to their own. Tearing it down is still an option.

The semi-detached house is 1.5-2 m wider at 8 m than the usual semi-detached house

It is probably wider than a towel- or even bowling alley-style terraced house. Nevertheless, it remains a terraced end house in character, with the typical concept:

The stairs play a central role in a semi-detached house anyway, since you have to constantly go up and down in a small space.

The basic type of terraced house is basically a vertical apartment, with the consequence of a lot of stair climbing for most room changes.

We hoped to somewhat separate the living room area from the kitchen. That's why there's no completely open floor plan.

However, I consider recessing the stair area unsuitable for this. I would rather think of a change of flooring (in both visualizations the same floor is shown for both areas - in my perception, it is a kitchen with a TV corner).

Well, everyone as they like. Tearing it down is still always an option.

You are so wonderfully empathetic today [emoji4] I like your food for thought!

We are talking here about an 8 x 11 floor plan. Sometimes not even "normal" houses have that...

The problem is often a too small plot of land, so you can't just quickly move the entrance elsewhere... However... I don’t see a single picture from the entrance thread, so I can’t even join the discussion here [emoji85]

However... I don't see a single image from the opening thread, so I can't even join the conversation here [emoji85]

Yes, the images are not suitable for small monitors. Just for you, the essentials summarized:
