Fantasy mass: Everything that cannot be achieved with integer +0.5 brick masses. If the mason is supposed to put 10 bricks + 5cm for wall length, it is somehow doable, but not exactly nice.

For the chimney position, I WOULD place the chimney on the interior wall because then the kitchen is better shielded. However, I am generally not a big fan of completely open kitchens, and when I watch TV I don’t want to hear the bread dough being stirred in the kitchen. And when I am in the kitchen, I want to listen to music without it disturbing those in the living room.

Floor plan: Often discussed is “A bathroom with two doors is nonsense.” Especially since you don’t really have a shorter way if you go through the wardrobe.
I would also probably banish the 3 guests per year to the basement and perhaps rather plan a small bathroom upstairs for the children, possibly also with a washing machine. You save yourself carrying up 5 loads of laundry every week.

At first glance, the floor plan doesn't look bad. However, upon closer inspection, there are major flaws.
- The kitchen is a disaster. With a room width of 3.60m, an island is neither possible nor practical.
- The living room is nicely wide but only 3.80m deep. That is really not much.
- Upstairs bedroom is tiny, the walk-in closet is unusable, and the bathroom is completely convoluted.
- Children's room is just barely okay in size.
- If the guest really is a guest, off to the basement.
- The staircase design is also very uncomfortable.

Whoever reads the topic headline "actually" initially expects two really fundamentally different variants - accordingly, there would have been more potential for comparative criticism. Here, it is basically only variant 1a and 1b instead of 1 and 2, since essentially nothing significant has been changed :-) and ultimately only the fireplace / chimney is placed elsewhere. From this point of view, there is actually only one floor plan, so there is little to criticize. It differs in many respects from how I would build it for myself, but that is not objectively "bad". Whoever likes to spend their money on sliding doors, please go ahead, clocks and classic cars can be more expensive. What I think of fireplaces in energy saving regulation houses I don’t have to repeat in every thread. Possibly I could have noted a question mark whether a hybrid of pantry storage room and utility room is the ultimate wisdom. Should I have also given you the hint that here and have presented houses of similar layout? I would not remove any of the living room doors, even if I assume that all four family members will each choose one as their favorite door and rarely use the other: but whether in this sense the two doors will stand for 3:1 or 1:3 - I don’t know you well enough for that. As said, I would make the sitting area door an ordinary hinged door, instead of also a sliding door like the one to the dining area. Fantasy dimensions were meanwhile already explained by : dimensions where anyone who can think in eighths of a meter immediately sees that the mason will have to saw there. With aerated concrete, one will rather saw there, and with the other stones rather "botch" mortar pockets. That then causes spots in the thermal imaging picture :-)

Thank you for your suggestions. The guest room is an office since I work a lot from home, we need it. The thing with the fantasy mass is very interesting, I will bring it up.

Hehe... for me it was at the beginning "what would the roof pitch be, then I’ll plan accordingly" ;)
Well then:
Ask yourself what the second leg of the ground floor corridor is supposed to be for? I came across this because I questioned the pantry for myself, at least this sliding door, which I rather saw from the corridor. Because what is the pantry supposed to be for? Right: among other things for beverage crates ... and why should you carry those around the entire interior building? ... Exactly! Door at the bottom of the plan.
The same applies to the dressing room upstairs: door at the bottom of the plan, then the other space eater (second door) can be omitted.
I find the size of the children's rooms okay.
Since you are well within budget, in your place I would widen the house by at least 50cm.
A house with a dressing room and office on 140sqm has never been comfortably planned at under 150sqm.
