We have been searching for a plot for quite some time but have so far been unsuccessful due to the orientation and local conditions. For example, the last reserved plot had a garden facing north and was recently used by the planning company as storage space for road excavation materials. Therefore, we decided to continue looking.
We found a plot by chance when a general contractor offered it to us without requiring us to build with them.
The plot is not rectangular, which makes it difficult to create a simple design as amateurs. The size is 919 m² (9,893 sq ft). The zoning plan and regulations are attached.
I have also attached an idea for the layout, although the proposed size doesn’t quite fit on the plot.
We want to plan a bungalow including a garage (preferably a double garage for two cars and one motorcycle) with a large living/dining area, two children’s bedrooms, a master bedroom with a walk-in closet, and two bathrooms. We also saw a partially open kitchen design at friends’ houses that can be closed off with a sliding door if needed. We want to avoid wasting too much space in front of the house.
Our rough target size is between 130 m² and 140 m² (1,400 to 1,500 sq ft).
So far, we have drawn our own floor plans based on examples from magazines or websites.
What are your ideas or suggestions for building on this plot?
I would really appreciate your opinions and ideas.
Thank you very much.

We want to avoid "wasting" too much space in front of the house. The area in front of the house is important and even useful—for example, for parking your vehicles outside of a garage. Given the size of the plot, I don’t see the need to be overly restrictive or stingy with the front yard space. There should be enough room.
What matters most are the dimensions of the building envelope. Without those, you can’t start the planning process.
The design itself is good.
Still, it’s always a good idea to consult an architect who is familiar with the plot.

What are your ideas or suggestions for developing this plot? If you have children, I wouldn’t recommend building a bungalow. Also, you should expect the neighbors to use their two-story homes to their full advantage. I would suggest a conventional one-and-a-half-story house.
