Basement
What is the anteroom intended for?
Apartment
Entrance is a terrible corridor. And anyway, who wants to live in that dark hole?
I also started with the basement apartment.
I asked myself who would want to rent that. There is a) no adequate space for a washing machine and drying facilities, b) no storage room, and c) no outdoor area. Is the tenant allowed to park next to one of your sports cars?
Otherwise, I assume your basement entrance is meant to be the main entrance, and the convoluted entrance on the ground floor is the “supplier,” i.e., guest and mail entrance? For the family, the basement entrance seems okay to me, but for guests, I find the ground floor entrance too narrow. Opening the door and letting in a couple is still possible, but if four of them stand at the door or you as a couple accompany another person outside, it gets narrow again. That doesn't work. It is always badly planned to have a wall behind an entrance that does not allow any stepping back.
Entrance too convoluted. Imagine 4-6 people coming home and wanting to take off their shoes.
Yes, it says the same there... I wanted to write that afterward... never mind
There are 2 exits directly into the garden, aren’t there? In total there are 5 exits.
I have to look for them too. I don’t find them logically planned.
Besides the entrance doors, I only see the two in the living room.
While the living room is supposed to be more of a retreat, during daily work in the house one rather looks for the way outside with the salad bowl or the coffee pot. But okay. Up above, you rather make fun of this criticism than question it.
In floor plan discussions, I always imagine going on a house viewing with exactly these mentioned prerequisites from the questionnaire because I might want to buy the house.
Nice, with basement apartment, I would think, but the basement apartment does not hold tenants, it only causes trouble and work. I also don’t want a stranger’s car standing in my yard.
Are there no cellar windows? Then when the third child comes, the fitness room upstairs is gone? And where is the child supposed to shower at all?
Okay, I’ll continue up: if the gable is kept open, you could put double casement windows in the small bathrooms. I would probably remove the partition wall and make access from the corridor. That would be a compromise.
Parents’ area is illogically laid out. If I want to sleep, my husband always rushes through the bedroom to wash, get dressed, go to the toilet again, then leave. The advantages of a dressing room are not given.
On the ground floor, I find the central windows/door/patio door absolutely unsuccessful; it divides the living room into two parts and makes it very uncomfortable.
In the dining area, you would feel trapped because of the missing outdoor connection.
After the house viewing, I would say: the house is absolutely cramped and not well thought out. The children’s rooms are nice, including the third one, but unfortunately, the third child has no justification here. The basement apartment is unusable, and even with that budget, you wouldn’t need the “togetherness.”
And I want to be able to walk directly onto the terrace from the kitchen and not have to open multiple doors.
I don’t want internal toilets; the many central shafts just don’t work. With clogged pipes, it goes under the floor slab, which I consider a major technical planning fault. By the way, the guest toilet lacks a washbasin.
With that budget, I consider it reckless to plan your own house as a layperson, especially a hillside house. Not every architect can do that... even less so a layperson.
Unfortunately, neither the program that churns out colored pictures nor the wife tells you that.
