Dear forum members,
We have purchased a trapezoidal plot of land (874 sqm (9400 sq ft)) and are now faced with the task of efficiently placing a house (approx. 10 x 12 m (33 x 39 ft)) and a double garage on the property.
The north side borders a state road (top). The driveway to the property is from the south side (bottom).
We are still quite unsure and would appreciate your ideas and advice.
Thank you very much in advance for your effort!
Best regards
Andrea

Is the plot lower than the street? It looks like the ground rises about 3m (10 feet) to the north?
Building boundaries?
Floor area ratio? Thank you very much for your message!
The plot is slightly lower than the street. The house will have two stories. The garage may be built directly on the property line, while the house must be set back 3m (10 feet) from the neighboring property.
Best regards

The floor plan of the house is still in the planning stage and not yet finalized, as it is also linked to the positioning of the front door. (approx. 180 sqm (1940 sq ft) of living space). Exactly, that’s why the house is designed based on the plot, and not fully designed first and then “see how it fits on the plot.”
Building envelope, etc.
Who is doing the “planning”? The homeowner? 😎

Oh, only the pitch and knee wall height, but no ridge direction / house axis?The ridge direction can be chosen freely; the building plan does not specify anything regarding the house axis.

Who is the “planner” then? The client? 😎There are no clients here, but two female builders instead 😉

What does 50 cm (20 inches) knee wall mean? Two full stories or ground floor and attic with a 50 cm (20 inches) knee wall? Any details on eave and ridge heights?Yes, ground floor and attic with a 50 cm (20 inches) knee wall. There are no specifications for eave or ridge heights. However, we are not allowed to build more than two floors.
