I'm not talking about the same cost, but even more expensive - depending on the design. Stones don’t cost much - elaborate drywall construction, on the other hand, does.
And you still don’t address the question about depreciation
By the way, I find classic dormers ugly. Just like two full stories with a pitched roof on top. Just like half-hipped roofs or hip roofs in general - tastes are just like that... And that’s fine.
It is undisputed that slopes are a matter of taste, but beyond that, one should not talk nonsense that isn’t true...
By the way, we only have slopes with 1.25m knee walls in three rooms - here it’s portrayed as if you’re practically crushed by the slopes.
I can't help your subjective assumptions about my statement. I didn’t say anything about being crushed, but you interpret things. Still, while we’re at it, a room with slopes definitely feels smaller than a normal one.
And a stool to look out the window is not a disadvantage? Putting furniture under a roof slope is also not a disadvantage? How is it with you, toilet or bathtub under the slope?
I can’t judge whether your room concept is so well designed that it doesn’t apply to you. I haven’t seen your floor plans.
I see this is a sensitive point for you. Why?
Or better, why didn’t you build two full stories? If there is no price difference.
Who builds a house larger in area just so that the usable space in the roof is bigger because they like roof slopes?
No one, so please compare the same floor area.
And I still believe that a house with the same floor area without roof slopes is more expensive than a normal one.
Sure, if you add a dormer on every side now, the price changes.
About our hipped roof
I would have preferred a house with a flat roof, but that was not allowed. So, I’m happy about the gained storage space. Since our basement of about 50m2 will eventually be used as a granny flat.
