ᐅ Division of a Semi-Detached House Along the Roof Ridge

Created on: 13 Jul 2021 17:17

Hello,

I am considering building a semi-detached house and already have a plot of land for it. Due to the location of the plot and the development plan, only a semi-detached house is possible, where the division runs along the roof ridge.

Now my question is, does anyone know if there is a fundamental reason why this wouldn’t be allowed? So far, I haven’t found a semi-detached house with this kind of division and wonder if I am missing something essential.

Maybe someone here knows more.

Best regards, nordisch

I don’t see any technical challenge in dividing along the roof ridge.

How to represent this sensibly in the floor plan, without ending up with narrow, corridor-like halves, is another question...

Here, a site plan showing the property and its surroundings might be helpful.

Hello @ypg, I understand what you mean and I think it’s quite nice. But the original poster is asking for something like this: "only a semi-detached house is possible, where the division follows the roof ridge."

So, a normal but slightly larger house?
I don’t see the problem imagining this and I assume the development plan gives the original poster too much creative freedom, so it might be misinterpreted or they simply cannot see any other options for themselves. No idea. That’s why I’m asking for clarification on how this should be understood.

Two gray houses with blue outline; red vertical axis, single-family house on the left, semi-detached house on the right.

I understood the original poster like this. Picture on the left.

You are like the picture on the right.

Now it depends on the building permission / planning permission.

You like the picture on the right.

Now it depends on the buildability.

That’s it… with two words and a symbol

Good friends of mine live in a semi-detached house with 1.5 stories plus a basement. And yes, the house is long and narrow with sloping ceilings upstairs. But they solved this with a clever floor plan and added dormer windows upstairs, so overall it works really well.
