Property - Building window - Location of house and garage

Hello everyone,

I am new to this forum and very impressed by the helpfulness!

We have reserved a plot of land and are now considering how it should be used sensibly. At least the development plan corresponds to our ideas, but we are still not sure how the garage and the house should be placed on the plot.

I have attached a suitable picture. North is at the top and the house entrance should also be here. The numbers stand for the width and length. Unit - meters.



If I place the garage next to the house, the driveway/exit is relatively long. Do you have any other ideas?

Thank you very much for your support!

Hello Björn, I think it's about a city villa? Then I would definitely place the entrance nicely centered towards the street with a small forecourt. Garage in the north, possibly rotated towards the entrance, so the driveway to the garage is from the south! Classic layout, southeast kitchen, west living room, ancillary rooms in the north.

Hello Yvonne,

thank you very much for your response. It is not supposed to be a city villa, but a single-family house with a staggered shed roof.



At the moment we are leaning towards a "classic" floor plan. Entrance (north) in the middle, with a manageable hallway and even distribution of rooms.


This results in the following layout: northeast kitchen, south living and dining room, utility rooms north. Is this still within limits?

However, the entrance in our "dream house" must almost be in the north. A garage in front of the house (exit - street in the east) probably makes little sense.

Put the garage in the basement?

Oh, you caught me. With your sketch and the mainstream idea of building a city villa, it would have really suited well. Now you tell us that you are building my favorite roof shape... And with that, you hit my passion. Is this a standard floor plan of the company? I would do the house orientation the same way, the best side belongs to the front, but why is the entrance now mandatory in the north???

The roof shape immediately impressed us...

This is a standard floor plan that can be modified, with the kitchen meant to be in a separate room. The kitchen and dining area would block an entrance on the east side (floor plan above). Or which combination did you have in mind?

With this floor plan, it could work, but we would have to make a compromise.

With this floor plan it could work, then we would have to make a compromise.

What compromise? I like it much better. Would the entrance be at the front here?
