Single-family house, estimated costs and suggestions for the floor plan

Yeah, the daylight, that's what I mean too
As a rule of thumb, about +- 1 sqm of window area per 10 sqm of living space is sufficient. Or something similar. Just google it. Then take 20% more as a light enthusiast and compare it with your windows...
Since you are "free" planning (without prefabricated house specifications), try a new design with our tips so you can stay below the 500,000 euro limit. Compact, simple, and yet unique. Balconies, roof terraces, and conservatories, garages under living space drive your construction costs up and add very little living value. On the contrary: they cause follow-up costs.
I'll just throw in one or two numbers here (sorry if I'm off... I also ask for corrections from others :cool
masonry double garage: 25,000, insulation to living space 10,000.
If you want to post your new design here, we'd be happy.
But it would be helpful if you could state your limit or your ideas about how expensive it should be.

An offset garage unfortunately also has the disadvantage that extra land is required, which in turn will result in significant additional costs for the property. Additionally, building regulations such as boundary development (or whatever it is called) must also be observed.

Garages are exempt from this. Usually, you are allowed to place garages on the property boundaries. The garage could thus be moved away from the house and you would have more room for an office on the ground floor.

Oh, I didn’t know about the garages as an exception. I probably should have asked my mother more precisely (she works at the building authority, but not for our area, rather more southern). But if she finds out, the same old story will start again, like 10 years ago when deciding which training to choose.

So, I’m setting the guidelines here now:
- Single-family house, at least 140m²
- Basement: billiard room at least 4.3m x 5.5m; room for pellet storage and heating system (the stove itself can also be in the living room --> like at my parents’), workshop
- Ground floor: guest WC, kitchen with small pantry, living room, small office (or upstairs)
- Upper floor: 3 children’s rooms, 1 parents’ room, 1 bathroom
- Somewhere a small workspace for laundry/ironing
- Max. €230,000 including ancillary costs (without land)
- Work such as piping/control of pellet system, water installation will be done ourselves (trained, educated and capable personnel are abundantly available)

I will post an updated plan here in due course. Thanks for everything.

Best regards

You are aware of the prices for houses and incidental costs though.

125m² Kfw 70 without basement, without workshop, without billiard room, without pellet heating......
Then maybe it might work out. Probably not even then in Bavaria.

But you have already realized that wiring, painting, and plumbing are all to be done independently, right? In other words, for this area I only need materials and minimal personnel costs. This house is not supposed to be completely built by some construction company, but as much as possible in-house.

What is actually going on with the forum? Already double posts twice.

.... and without a double garage.

With the self-performed work you mentioned, you can roughly afford 140 sqm of living space (as Wastl already says). Have you dealt with incidental building costs and material costs? Have a look! By the way, painting work is almost standard in self-performed tasks...

Are you even allowed to build two stories?
