The principle “the more, the better” does not always work.

If you decide to build a house yourself, listen to the opinion of the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", designer Yulia Tychino - she told how not to succumb to gigantomania during the construction of a home.

Give up the balcony

No one disputes the importance of a balcony – only if we are talking about an apartment, where it provides household and sanitary functions. But if it is about a country house, the question arises: why is a balcony needed here?

Most likely, it will have a view of the neighboring fence, located 10 meters away. Household tasks performed by a balcony in an apartment can be solved on a summer cottage.

The attic is not needed either

An attic can be arranged in a country house only if you have the desire and, first of all, the strength to take care of it and regularly maintain it.

If these conditions are not met, most likely, over time this room will turn into an ordinary attic or a storage room for unnecessary things.

Why do you need an underground garage?

Of course, the idea is tempting, but you need to be prepared for the fact that it is not easy to build a reliable underground garage, and even if you succeed, there is no guarantee that one day it will not be flooded.

Imagine that then not only the garage will suffer, but also all the property, including your car. It is much easier and cheaper to build a regular above-ground garage next to the house.

Earlier, an expert told how outdated linoleum can be replaced.
