Realistic cost estimate: Single-family house with unfavorable development location

What is supposed to be disadvantageous about that?

It does not have to be, but it is not uncommon either: the client, who near delivery and during the critical construction phase participates more or less unsteadily in decisions, subsequently experiences a postnatal depression regarding some construction details, see and

nd Gussek Haus we have of course already looked through, but the designs with office/guest room on the ground floor are always so huge.

Well, it doesn't have to be a huge open plan room, but if you want to realize a separate room on the ground floor, the square meters have to come from somewhere. Your remaining 37 sqm including the main route to the upper floor has serious movement restrictions in both the dining and chill areas…

Dining table in the middle in the "bay window".

… means for example that the table and chair are in front of the stairs.

A staircase in the open plan room belongs in every good sitcom

and then run through the whole house to the wardrobe with a towel around your hips.

That's right: it will be quite amusing for everyone involved when the freshly showered person squeezes past others to master the stairs. You don't have to build a shower for 10 guests a year. Overall considered: the budget doesn't fit. However, TM is quite cheap… very cheap, as far as I know. Regarding the original floor plan: it is poor to begin with. No one wants to look under a staircase when entering a house – it's simply not the best side. TM has not earned any fame with any floor plan so far.

we have a new building on a similar plot, 60+ m driveway with front house in family ownership, my thoughts on that. - Driveway north or south possible, advantage north since there is already a path, disadvantages, construction road damages it, no one can park there. - Driveway south, to be newly created with construction road, pipes interfere, family decision. Water, telecom, sewage and electricity have to be newly installed for the new house (under the driveway). We do not have gas, offer for 70m 13,000€. Sewage, new house -80cm, -70cm slope, the sewer must be at least 1.8m lower than upper floor level, even deeper if there is a basement. Construction road installation, laying sewage, electricity and empty conduits underneath was done by our civil engineer. Sewage, every 20m a manhole for hose or high-pressure cleaner. If you have more questions, feel free ;)

Lucky, I would say ;)

Here the municipal utilities and their house and yard civil engineer are digging, and only them. They like to use any possibly prepared trench, but still bill their civil engineering services in full ;) So with the basic connection fees you are looking at 30,000+ for 70m, minus the generous discount of 750 EUR if you lay 2 media simultaneously.

In the end, as always, it is a question of warranty. If you prepare the trench and refill it yourself (or a company you hire), the municipal utilities will blame any damage on you.

I can only give a warranty on things that I or a colleague have executed from A to Z ourselves.

For me, it is exactly the opposite. Timely appointments are only available for civil engineering in [Eigenleistung].

Here the municipal utilities are digging with their in-house deep excavator and only them.

Our deep excavator has the permissions to work for all Berlin supply and disposal companies, that simply belongs to the industry.

For me (also Berlin, but a different supply district/area/whatever) the waterworks no longer wanted to connect directly. Over 15m had to be built with a handover shaft. It had something to do with the transfer of risk.

This could even help the OP here, coordinating etc. Better with a capable civil engineer who installs shafts and conduits and utility providers only go through that.
