Single-family house 175 sqm without basement, too big?

Attention, new attempt

Yes, completely rearranged - which will also apply to the sewage system.

Yes, that also worries me... Of course, you have to discuss it with the architect, I can't judge that. How do you find it otherwise? In terms of the sense of space, freedom of movement, etc.

this small, separate toilet I do not find nice at all. It is also dark even with the door open and the smell does not go away quickly either. You always have such a gloomy toilet corner and you can't wash your hands directly either, first you have to unlock the door.

So I can understand the wish, since we are planning exactly that after we experienced it that way on a vacation!

But a window for ventilation and natural light is mandatory in my opinion.
We are also planning about 1m width and 1.2m length, a sliding door between a closet and the toilet.
And we think a sliding door is definitely better than nothing, and still it’s not an extra room if you need to quickly jump between the shower and the toilet. And even through a wall you don’t have 100% soundproofing. So absolute TMI but after all, you live together as a family.

Find a better position so that you can also use the wall for a shelf outside or next to the shower, for example
(-> and just now there is exactly such a suggestion as I submitted)

But a window for ventilation and natural light is definitely a must in my opinion.

Good point:
