Hello everyone!
We have purchased a triangular plot of land. As if that weren’t complicated enough, there is also a large oak tree that must be considered during the planning. In our initial considerations, it quickly became clear that the floor plan will have an L-shape.
Does anyone here have experience with this type of plot and a correspondingly shaped floor plan? What additional information is needed to get meaningful advice?
Best regards

Otherwise, the only option would be to fully build on the resulting gap between setback areas and the tree protection zone, which will be quite a challenge in terms of space planning.

I doubt you'll reach your 200 sqm (2,153 sq ft) even without a granny flat160 sqm (1,722 sq ft) would also be fine. There are three of us. Family planning is complete

I need to get informed about that You don’t need to. There is no zoning plan, so according to Section 34 of the Building Code, the building must fit into the neighborhood, which here will most likely be waived due to the extremely unusual plot, at least concerning the extent of structural use.

2 meters on each of the other two sides. Who says that? It is public road area, so the setback distances can extend up to the middle of that area. In theory, building right on the boundary would be possible, as the neighbor has done. Only for the parking space do you need to keep a setback.
For the floor plan experts here, you should draw the plot to scale, mark the exact position of the tree including its canopy, the safety zone (negotiate strictly again with the environmental authority whether it really has to be 1.50m (5 feet)), and the setback distances.
Have you created a room layout?
Which rooms, what needs to be included, etc.
For example, living room
Large seating area, library, piano
Make a list like this.
I would look for compact floor plans. Something similar to Schwörerhaus Plan E 15-133.3
Simple and straightforward are four straight walls with a pitched roof, without bay windows, angles, or an underground garage with a basement apartment.
