These are some considerations:

1. Before the final approval given to construct a new home;

1.1. Ground Floor compared to the 2nd storey layout

1.1.1  Try to superimpose the 2nd storey layout plan to the ground floor.

1.1.2  And for the Ground Floor level; look out especially for toilets at the 2nd storey.

1.1.3   Here, it is considered inauspicious to have the toilet especially the WC pipe(s) on the 2nd storey; above the main entrance door; and/or kitchen especially directly above the stove.

1.1.4 And any other living areas such as directly above the sofa or a bedroom. Also try to avoid the wc directly above the dining table.

2. 2nd Storey superimposed onto the ground floor layout

2. Most important consideration is to avoid a bed directly above the ground floor stove.

3. In your case, there is no major concerns for a balcony directly above the main door.

3.1. In fact, many, many homes even have a porch directly above the main door. And some homes, the 2nd floor (above) the porch is turned into a large balcony area.

3.2. Based On common sense, it makes excellent sense in your case; where the balcony is not too long, but good enough to provide a roof or shelter in the even of heavy rain / wind.
