: I only changed the interior doors to white lacquer finish and the door handles to stainless steel. They are standard in the 90s style – I can’t live with that o_O. What will be added is a LAN network, but we need to coordinate that with the electrician because it will be cheaper that way. It will be a low-budget version with 2-3 connections in the living room, kitchen, guest room, children’s room, and office. Also, an outdoor faucet and 1-2 outdoor sockets for more lighting. For the electrical system, all sockets etc. are listed in the construction service description and that is sufficient for us; we even have more per room than we currently do.

: yes, you’re right about winter, hardly any sun reaches that corner. At least concerning the terrace, it’s obviously not optimal, but we have a large garden for that and it will be placed somewhere else. The decisive point for the orientation is simply that the street is to the south, which we don’t want to see or hear from the living room, so the bedroom would be on that side. And we don’t want west or east because then the neighbors could look right into the entire living room, kitchen, and bedroom. Those are also where the biggest windows are. I hope that the size will compensate for the disadvantage of lacking sun in winter.
The cloakroom is of course not optimal and small, you’re right, but we don’t expect the PERFECT house for the price. It is very well planned for us at 95%. In the hallway, there will only be a small cloakroom, mainly for guests. Most of the jackets and shoes will be stored in the utility room – also better for the appearance in the hallway. We save a lot of space in the utility room because the washing machine and dryer will go to the large bathroom upstairs. Under the stairs, the wood will probably be stacked, as well as a place for the dog.
Topic fireplace. At the house builder, it can only stand at one place (red), but we want it where it is marked blue. The background is that it should be visible both from the dining table in the kitchen and from the sofa in the living room. Also, the stainless steel version is cheaper than the masonry chimney.

The table is Ikea Norden. Normal for 8 people 100x220 and extended for 12 people 100x270.
The biotope or the trees are in the north, which you can quite clearly see on the site plan. Many trees are marked there. Behind that is a small road, and beyond that a field over 1 km and then forest.
The access to the house may still change; that was just an idea for now. Maybe I will make it straight to the parking lot. I just thought because the garbage collection point is on the pit, that would be the shortest way to take out the trash or get the bikes. The property is also 1 m higher on the south on the eastern side than street level and levels out toward the west to the driveway.
: The electrical construction specification is above, good enough for us except for the LAN network. Maybe 3-4 sockets will be added in the hallway, attic, and outside. The house is already mirrored, which was no problem. It doesn’t change anything regarding statics and materials.
: we’re aware that it’s a lot of work but we love gardening, it’s really fun for us. And fortunately, nowadays there are lawn robots. I already got a lawn tractor; I’m looking forward to the first ride, childhood dream :p:D Rabenstein is a great area, I spent much of my childhood there. You’re not far from the zoo. Congratulations.
It is a water-to-air heat pump, namely the Daikin Altherma 3R + 300l HybridCube heat storage planned.
: I can already tell you’re very critical, but I can understand that because most people buy new and want turnkey as much as possible.
Yes, the ramp ends in nowhere, the barn was demolished. Around it is a embankment and hedge plants. I will certainly post a picture here sometime. So far, everyone finds the thing pretty cool.
In total, there will even be a whopping 6 fireplaces (house + bungalow + bunker + sauna + hot tub + campfire pit). Now you may be really outraged :p. I save my CO2 somewhere else by buying many things used and giving them a second life so as not to clutter the earth with newly made things that go to waste after 3 years.
It’s not a cheap house, it’s affordable. It fulfills its purpose as a residence. Many materials and construction companies are not low budget but in the mid-price segment. Heinz von Heiden can offer it cheap because they have bulk delivery contracts and optimized processes, their own architects, structural engineers, etc. A small general contractor can hardly compete on price.
The bungalow from the neighbor with the plot will cost us nothing because we might exchange land. The son would presumably like the part where I marked the parking spaces. Since we are building without a basement, additional storage space is quite good. Much goes to the attic but such a small workshop is a little man’s dream of mine; I have to put all my tools and garden equipment somewhere. For that, we’re not building an extra garage.
The matter of the fence and gate at the driveway is currently not easy to clarify. The two enclosed plots still belong to the father, and he is in assisted living at 86 years old. Currently, he doesn’t want to sell anything. But his sons are very nice and have already told us that we will find a good solution for everyone eventually. For now, they’re in the worse position because they have to go across our property. Since the right to drive and walk there is restricted personal, it does not transfer to the sons and they have a big disadvantage if they want to sell. The father’s house also has no surrounding plot. The plan is initially to leave the front open and only put up a fence—that is going in anyway. The rest will develop over time if there is enough money left. The house will only be finished next year.
Yes, money is a big issue, but as described, I only buy what is necessary new. Almost everything outside I get from the area as gifts or for a low price. Starting with tools, garden supplies, building materials, tiles, and even furniture. Many give away things used once or only 1 year old. I can outfit the whole house with tiles and floors for €1000-2000, no problem, and some of it even from Villeroy and Boch. You just can’t be picky or want something special. Accordingly, my goal is to stay well below our overall budget. Let’s see...
€17k for landscaping is a lot, at least if you do the work yourself. Granite paving stones can sometimes be had used here for €50 per ton, just as an example. Yesterday, for example, a complete wooden carport with two parking spaces was on classifieds for €5k. Wooden terraces are also sometimes given away. Sand, repaint, done. Anthracite chain link fence over 1 m x 50 m with 3 m gate costs about €500 with everything included. It’s like that across the board. I can absolutely understand that it’s not everyone’s thing, but we enjoy it and so do our part for sustainability.
