Hello,
it has been quiet here for a long time because I was taking care of the design planning and the corresponding building application. Both are now finished, so I wanted to speak up here again as input from here was also incorporated.
The whole house, including the garage, has moved slightly north to have about 2 meters more garden on the "garden side."
We have changed the external dimensions again and widened the house by 25 cm towards the west, which means a wider kitchen of 4.01 m and especially a better layout upstairs from our point of view. Here a small utility room was also created for the washing machine and dryer. The bathroom will be designed a bit differently in terms of layout according to today’s bathroom planning.
On the ground floor, not much has actually changed. We have thought about the connection garage/utility room/kitchen several times and simply want it. The garage should be on this side anyway because of the boundary/privacy screen to the neighbor, the kitchen should face the back terrace, and the utility room is located closest to the supply and disposal lines. There is still a niche in the kitchen for the side-by-side fridge, and the kitchen layout roughly corresponds to what is shown in the plan here. The island will come to the wall and will only be a bit larger.
The driveway is already planned and also works from the slope conditions as intended.
In the meantime, we have replanned from an air-to-water heat pump to a ground-source heat pump with a trench collector. I am still clarifying the details with the heating engineer.
Price-wise, we are still within the budget we set ourselves. (I hope I can repeat this sentence exactly the same in 12 months )
Now we hope that the building permit will be issued promptly in the exemption procedure and that I can start the earthworks at the end of February/beginning of March.
