Hello everyone,
our municipality will soon be selling building plots in a new development area. We are currently trying to select the "best" plots... I know, that sounds very optimistic... but in the application we have to name 5 building plots that would be suitable for us.
Of course, the plots at the edges with an unobstructed view of fields and vineyards are the most sought after. Below I have attached a screenshot showing the 2 (in my opinion) best plots (the plan is oriented north). We would like to take advantage of the beautiful view and install a large window front (a kind of glass façade) on the west side. On the south side, we want a lift-and-slide door (about 400cm x 250cm (13 feet x 8 feet 2 inches)) – marked in red on the picture. The distance to the property boundary would be only about 5.5m (18 feet).
The house should be an Energy Efficiency House 40 (Effizienzhaus 40). My husband is a bit skeptical about the glazing on the west side. He thinks the window front should be on the south side – but there we would not have a free view...
There are also 3 plots with neighbors on the south side. The problem there is that the house would be positioned a bit lower and the free view would be about 1.5 to 2m (5 to 6.5 feet) above the single-family house. So, you would have to look upwards or plan the living room on the first floor.
What do you think? Would having the glazing on the west side be a deal breaker for an Energy Efficiency House 40? Textile sunshades are planned.
We intend to consult an energy advisor only after we have a confirmed allocation for a specific plot.
It is important for me to start thinking early about a potential building plot – with all the pros and cons...

Post #26 Title 1.8Yes, of course I read that as well. I just thought that "exceptionally" only means "in exceptional cases" (if there’s no other way) and not "I just want a bigger garden, so I’ll plan the garage differently." But okay… if you say it might be possible...Let’s wait and see. About three more weeks until the call for bids. I’ll get back to you then, already with the exact dimensions of the plots. Thanks for your help.

What are the future development plans? Are more phases planned? I just hope you’re not designing a wall of windows that your new neighbor will be able to look into within 10 years. hm... that would be less than ideal 😉
No one can predict or guarantee that. The fact is, the adjacent field is about 50-75 meters long (55-80 yards), then there are apple orchards, and beyond that the vineyards. I think they will leave the apple trees alone. The field? ...
The roads, however, are planned so that there won’t be a “dead-end” street.
In the community’s master plan, there are already 5(!!!) additional new development areas planned, with more than 120 building plots in total. That should be enough for several years – at least I hope so.
By the way, the community has fewer than 13,000 residents.

A call to the building authority helps to clear up any uncertainties.
At the latest, your architect should be able to clarify or know about such things.I have already asked – nothing is planned. First, the 5 development areas are planned, then (in many years) a new master plan will be created...Kati.com schrieb:

A floor plan that is initially just a sketch shouldn’t be judged too strictly, but: while non-experts usually draw stairs about twenty percent too short, yours is almost half the correct length. Because of the staircase’s central importance to the overall floor plan, this is unfortunately a flaw that is not easy to fix later. The introduction to staircase dimensions by @kbt09 can be found in the post https://www.hausbau-forum.de/threads/grundrissplanung-unbedingt-vor-beitrag-erstellung-lesen.11714/
