I now have a land offer that seems quite suitable. However, the development plan states that the ridge height may only be 7.20 m (23.6 ft). Two apartments are permitted, which I would like to have. Building envelope is 17 x 14 m (56 x 46 ft). Since I want a ceiling height of 2.75 m (9 ft) on the ground floor, as well as underfloor heating, the height restriction means that I can only build a single-story house, and the second floor would not provide comfortable living space. The knee wall would start at around 1 m (3.3 ft)... which is quite impractical.
A gable roof and hip roof are allowed, with angles between 30 and 45 degrees.
Is there a program or an online tool where I can roughly calculate this? Thanks.

Development Plan / Restrictions
Plot size: 520
Slope: no
Site coverage ratio
Floor area ratio: 0.35
Building envelope, building line and boundary: 17 m wide * 14 m deep (56 ft * 46 ft)
Edge development
Number of parking spaces: 3 m distance from the street to building envelope (10 ft)
Number of floors: I (single-story)
Roof type: gable roof or hipped roof, between 30° and 45°
Architectural style
Orientation
Maximum heights / limits: 7.20 m ridge height from top of finished floor (24 ft); floor height max. 0.50 m above reference point street crown (1.6 ft)
Additional requirements: dormers max. 3 m wide (10 ft), tile color, 2 apartments permitted, open development (what does this mean?), single and semi-detached houses
Client Requirements
Style, roof type, building type: "country house"... later a separable second apartment would be good
Basement, floors: basement yes, 1.5 floors
Number of people, age: 2 persons, 60+
Space requirements on ground floor and upper floor: optimal use
Office: family use or home office? No
Guest sleepers per year: 4 times, 3 persons each
Open or closed architecture
Conservative or modern construction
Open kitchen, kitchen island: kitchen open to dining area, from there open to living room
Number of dining seats: 6
Fireplace: no
Music / stereo wall
Balcony, roof terrace: no
Garage, carport: 2
Utility garden, greenhouse: no
Other wishes / special features / daily routine, also reasons why some things are preferred or not: everything "from a single source," no own work, move-in ready finish (ready to move in with furniture as if renting).
House Design
Who planned it: approached / contacted prefab house manufacturer
- planner from a construction company
- architect
- do-it-yourself
What do you particularly like? Why?
What do you dislike? Why?
Price estimate from architect / planner: my estimate 2,200 EUR/sqm living space = 400k without land
Personal price limit for the house, including features:
Preferred heating technology: no photovoltaics. Heat pump with active cooling. Individual room temperature control. Good sound insulation.
If you have to give up on which details / expansions
- can give up: 1 garage
- cannot give up:
Why is the design the way it is now? e.g.
Standard design from planner?
Which wishes were implemented by the architect?
A mixture of many examples from various magazines...
What makes it particularly good or bad in your opinion?

From the way you describe it, staying would probably be the advised choice. However, if your kind landlords pass away or decide to sell, you might already feel too old to make a move (?)
In my experience, there is no established right beyond tenant law, so concerns about changes in ownership are, in my view, unfounded.
“Making a move” is a polite way to say downsizing to the smallest apartment you will ever have. It will likely be a condominium you didn’t buy yourself. ***End of sarcasm***
By the way... this is exactly what my daughter, who has become a city dweller, said. She now thinks it’s great to spend a weekend in the countryside... it smells so wonderfully like horse manure.... ))

Is 400k your budget limit?
If so, you probably won’t be able to fully utilize the building window anyway No, that’s not the limit; that was the calculation: 2,200 * 180 m² (1,938 sq ft). I’m providing the plot myself.
The 2,200 was quoted to me by a prefab house manufacturer as “turnkey.” We will see if that really works out in the end. Or do you think that might already be an optimistic figure or unrealistic?

open type of development (What is that supposed to mean?)The "o" in the development plan refers to both detached houses and entire rows of terraced houses, as opposed to perimeter block development. Legally, a development is considered "open" even if there is a gap in the building frontage after 50 meters (164 feet). So, except for main city streets, "o" is practically the standard.https://www.instagram.com/11antgmxde/
