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

I doubt that, given how the original poster is handling things, anyone feels like contributing much more here... ??? ... where is the problem with first asking for FACTS, FACTS, FACTS regarding the plot?
Oakland wanted that too

What information is still needed here to provide helpful assistance?No, that is completely legitimate, but as often happens, many react with the original comment like "how stupid is he"... It will be interesting to see how he updates us here, and it would certainly be exciting to hear what concept an architect would develop for this.
If all of this seems too frustrating, you could simply cut the tree down and factor any possible penalty into the construction costs...

If all of this seems too annoying, you could just cut down the tree and factor any potential fine into the building costs... You want to quickly and secretly fell a 15m (50 feet) giant oak in a night-and-fog operation? Right in the middle of the city? Hmm.

?Don’t do it secretly, but boldly during the day! It will probably attract less attention that way.
Last night, I found a report about the nearby development area. Out of the 116 trees covered by the building regulations, only 3 are supposed to remain. The compensation measures involve planting new trees and paying fees. Surely, a solution can be found there as well.

I believe so. So you know the notary contract, know what the original poster paid, and what the seller told or did not tell them?

What are you offering? Oh, so I have to offer something too?
No, never mind, that was a rhetorical answer to a sentence I took as rhetorical.

But in my opinion, the aerial photo with the sketch from Mottenhausen is more accurate than the original poster’s drawing. You trust the plan of a scientist with an unknown field of expertise more than the unambiguous statement of the surveyor?

Go look on Google Maps Goodness, Katja! Google Maps! And where did you get the property boundaries from?

Rough estimate Your estimate is brilliant! That’s how I know you. Constructive, solution-oriented. If the original poster had confirmed my theory about a possible boundary construction toward the street, you could have also considered a transverse building, and the original poster could use the plan for a preliminary building permit / planning permission request.

The rough estimate places the center of the tree trunk from the northeastern corner at about 15.5 to 16m (51 to 52.5 feet) away. Unfortunately, your estimate is unsuitable for surveying purposes.

Is it actually a problem that the land is shown in the cadastral map as garden land/agricultural land and not as residential building land? No, it’s not a problem. The land use types in the map represent the actual use of the property and have no legal significance for building regulations.
