The utility room is fully occupied by the heating system, electrical distribution, washing machine, and dryer, that is correct. A pantry would be nice, but in the past, we have never stored so much food that everything didn’t fit in the kitchen so far. The storage room for cleaning supplies, ironing board, vacuum cleaner, etc. is in the hallway on the upper floor. There is definitely an attic. There will be a pull-down ladder in the ceiling on the upper floor. All items that are rarely needed should be stored there. Toys go into the children's rooms, and the stroller is always in the car anyway. Tools should be stored in the garage, and if space in the garage ever becomes tight, a garden shed would help. The fact that everything feels so "crammed" is naturally also somewhat due to the limited budget. Of course, I would also find it nicer if the entrance area were more open and larger. An additional storage room would not be wrong either. But somehow you have to make do with the space available and make the best of it. And the exterior dimensions of 11x9m and just under 140 sqm of living space simply do not leave much room for maneuver. Our only requirements were an open kitchen, a large garage (4x9m), and a door from the garage into the house. Additionally, three bedrooms and a study were mandatory. We really experimented a lot with the layout at the beginning, but there weren’t really that many possibilities. Especially the problem that you can only get to the study through the living room is a point that I would have liked to solve differently at first, but somehow we didn’t find any other solution and in the end, we said that we could definitely live with the situation. Even though we are of course reluctant to start the planning all over again, we are still grateful for suggestions on how it could be done better exactly.
