On which of these floor plans can we continue to build?

At the moment, I still don’t quite understand why, with a narrower house, one would want to place the wider strip on the east side. I understood to mean that one would get more of it on the west side.

The advantage of a forum is that you get different viewpoints. Kaho once sketched the east carport option for you, I the west. Please draw all the possibilities yourself (without software) and write down the advantages and disadvantages you get with each version. However, you should never lose sight of the living room or the floor plan. It has to work as a whole. And I don’t think you want to carry your bike all the way around the house.

I have the feeling that the discussion from two weeks ago with the straight staircase has now been replaced by your 9-meter garage.

At the moment, I still don't quite understand why, with a narrower house, the wider strip should then be placed on the east side. I understood from that there would be more of it on the west side.

Only if you insist on having a garage. If you build a carport, it is immediately mirrored. The idea is to bring the light into the house on the west side. So either a garage on the east with a wide driveway (so that, among other things, you can also get to the bicycles without having to walk through the garden first and, of course, to make the curve with the car) or a carport on the west, whereby windows under the carport are possible, and it can be closer to the street.

Kaho once marked the East carport option for you, I the West.

Um, not quite. I drew the garage and, of course, placed it in the East. I thought that was an unavoidable blunder. If it were a carport, it could go in the West.

so that you can also get to the bicycles, among other things

I keep wondering how people with a semi-detached house get their bicycles out of the back part of the garage?

If it were a carport, that can go on the west side.

What we really need is a lump where certain things can be stored and that can be accessed from both the garden and the front. So would it be an option to put a carport on the west side and the lump on the east? Only you should keep the possibility open in the east that a car can also be parked there. Because if a carport can be extended further to the front, then a second car cannot park in front of it.

What would you change about the dimensions?

I would go for about 8m house width.

Is the TV area big enough or should it be lowered by x cm?

With a normal TV size, a room width of 4m is good for orientation. You can also live well with 3.5m. At 4.5m, the device should slowly be getting bigger.

[*] What do you do with the area under the stairs? [LIST] [*] Leave it open? [*] Storage room (accessible from where)? [*] Put it on the other side, i.e., facing the utility room? [*] Or built-in closets for the wardrobe and then dispense with the built-in closet in front of the WC and design this area more open (i.e., without the partition wall for the previously [*] planned wardrobe)?

If you build a closed staircase, you could install a small door from the living room and use the space underneath for storage. But that makes the hallway uncomfortably narrow and tight. Therefore, I would simply put a sideboard underneath.

The utility room is quite large. Maybe incorporate the wardrobe from the hallway there?

The wardrobe is in front of the WC, isn’t it?!

They don't get them out and curse their whole lives. Or they have neither a car, a garage, nor bicycles.
