hm... spontaneously I thought of our house, which is offered by the builder with the following floor plans and staggered shed roof:


Similarity is present :) Of course, this also exists larger or individually.
'Smart' is always not to specify a construction site here ;)
Anyway: it is definitely unwise to start a house planning without a plot.
1) a builder won't engage so quickly because there is no plot, so it's wasted effort for him.
2) wasted effort for you, because every plot is subject to guidelines (development plan). You might not be allowed to build a staggered shed roof on it. Even more 'dangerous' is the potential of the floor area: 160 sqm of floor area in a rather rural area with a floor area ratio of about 0.1 requires a plot of at least 1600 sqm.
Then you might not get the nice north-south orientation. So you plan a house without knowing if it even fits - you deal with a design that matures lovingly over months into a dream house, but then it doesn’t fit the plot you get or can afford.
