Hello everyone,

We are currently working on the driveway and garden design for our single-family home.

Our plot of land has some challenges.

1.) It is quite small at 425 sqm (approximately 4577 sq ft).
2.) It is on a slope rising from the street level, between 1 m and 2 m (3 ft 3 in and 6 ft 7 in).

The house and garage are already built and nearly finished, so no changes can be made to the house itself.
Our focus is solely on the garden design.

Goal:
A second parking space on the property so that the car parked in the garage can exit easily without needing to move the second vehicle.

Initially, we planned to build a parking space with a carport on the right side of the house. Unfortunately, we are unable to get approval for an additional driveway, and this would also exceed the allowed boundary construction limits.

I have attached the first drafts from our landscaper. Unfortunately, a second parking space is not included yet.

Maybe you have some ideas and can help us.

Where it says 152.27, dig a parking spot parallel to the direction of the roadway and cover it with gravel and small stones.

However, it cannot be accessed due to the lack of a driveway. To the left is the entrance area with the walkway, etc., which seems to be the only place where something could still be placed to use the only access. But this contradicts the requirements regarding building access.

I would say this probably won’t work anymore.

I mean the front entrance side. Why isn’t that possible? What am I missing here?

Well, just look at the painting. There is supposed to be a walkway with a step, etc., leading from the house. Exactly there, a car could be parked, as I mentioned, but then the entrance area currently planned would have to be abandoned.
And on the right, where the 152.27 is, you can’t get there at all.

Why not? Just park directly from the street.
