Hello everyone,
after successfully applying for a building plot, I have now received the reservation confirmation.
Now the question arises regarding the planning of the single-family house.
In the textual regulations of the development plan, it states "The eaves height, measured from the top edge of the finished ground floor slab to the intersection of the outer edge of the rising external masonry with the roof covering, must not exceed 3.50 m (11 ft 6 in)."
Two full stories are permitted, and the maximum ridge height is 8.50 m (28 ft).
As for roof types, shed, gable, and hipped roofs are allowed. The permitted roof pitch ranges from 28° to 35°.
I would like to build a "city villa," which usually has an eaves height above 3.50 m (11 ft 6 in), since the first upper floor is typically built without a roof slope, and there are two full stories with a hip or pyramid roof.
Now to my question:
A pyramid roof is a type of hipped roof. Is your pyramid roof automatically approved if a hipped roof is allowed in the development plan? And does the eaves height restriction always apply, regardless of whether you build one or two stories? In a neighboring development area, the regulation states:
"The building height at the eaves side, measured from the top edge of the finished ground floor slab to the intersection of the outer edge of the rising external masonry with the roof covering, must be between 3.0 and 3.8 m (9 ft 10 in and 12 ft 6 in) in the area designated for single-story construction."
This sounds as if the eaves height restriction only applies to single-story buildings and not to two-story buildings?!
So, if the 3.50 m (11 ft 6 in) eaves height limit is fixed, the dream of a "city villa" would probably be over :-(
Thank you very much in advance for your help!

Or does the second/upper eave then apply as well? Yes.

Of course, I lack practical experience, but as a layperson, I would at least view it critically that the actual upper floor (OG) is defined as the ground floor (EG).Why? There is even a current thread in the floor plan forum where the basement (UG) and ground floor (EG) are considered as part of a city villa.
