Hello everyone,
I am new to this forum and have a question about our construction project. We have the opportunity to buy a discounted building plot (approximately 350m2) for a semi-detached house in the Munich surrounding area. The contract for this is already available to us.
The plot for the other half of the house was sold four months ago. Last week I was able to contact our future building partners, who already have a permit for the following semi-detached house:
- Model Danwood 116w
- gable roof
- no basement
- 2 full floors, no attic option
- dimensions 10.2x7 m
- wall height 6.2 m
- roof pitch 25
- total 116 m2 living space
And here lies the crux: we are a family with soon two children and need a large home office. 116m2 is therefore definitely too little space for us. After consulting the local building authority, it would be possible to keep the length of 10.2 m, which borders the neighbor, but build our half wider (up to 9 m). Building without a basement is also not an option for us. Then we would have
- basement
- ground floor plus attic with external dimensions 10.2x9 m
So I think we could realize 135-140 m2 of living space.
Now my question to the forum: would you build such an asymmetrical semi-detached house?
Of course, it is annoying that we now have to adapt to the low pitch of the roof and the limited length. At the same time, it might also be nice to have two relatively spacious floors. Of course, there is also the option to waive the plot – but given the location, that would not be our preferred option for the price.
Maybe someone has experience or tips for a rather unconventional semi-detached house! We appreciate any feedback.
