ᐅ Floor Plan of a Narrow, Rectangular L-Shaped House on a Triangular Plot with an Oak Tree

Underground garage and granny flat won't work

You need to position the house as close to the street as possible. There is no space for a driveway.

Hello?
It’s not our fault that you got ripped off. You can’t build a residential house on that land as long as the tree is there. I’d bet my house on it.
And removing the tree—aside from the fact that you’re not allowed to—would make it impossible to live there because the neighbors would be furious.

What’s that supposed to mean? You don’t even know that.

Bet accepted!
Take his plan from #38, get his plot from TIM-online, fit the plan in, and you’ll see there’s about 4 meters (13 feet) of space (+/- 50 centimeters (20 inches)) beside the tree, increasing toward the street. The garage fits in the building line, far enough from the street to allow a usable driveway including windows for the basement to be built. If he has enough money, he can use micropiles in the tree’s root zone, avoiding at least the safety distance, which by the way isn’t even mentioned in the tree protection regulations.

You didn’t make a mistake

Everyone makes mistakes. But what did you want to say with that? What glimmer of hope do you see if any statement of mine is wrong?

This thread is a good example of fake news:
Yvonne asks in #53 if the plot belongs to the municipality, Müllerin assumes it in #70, and Yvonne accepts it as fact in #90. Funny!

I believe I do.

I’ve already tried that. We don’t know the exact measurements. But in my opinion, the aerial photo with Mottenhausen’s sketch is more accurate than the original poster’s drawing. It should be a building with a maximum width of 4 m (13 feet) – probably less. Depending on the exact position of the tree, the depth is also very limited.

I’m not saying it’s impossible to build something there, like a garage, for example. But I don’t believe the original poster will spend several hundred thousand euros on some kind of tower.

I know that already.

Go to Google Maps and switch to Satellite view.
Right-click on a starting point. In the menu that appears, select "Measure distance." If you now measure the important dimensions, you will realize that Mottenhausen is closer to the truth than the OP.

I often like to experiment with these measurements... so I built the "underground garage," added the entrance to the granny flat, and then simply designed a house with slightly angled walls to show what, in my opinion, is the maximum possible space on the plot with the given dimensions.

I don’t see a granny flat as practical here... there’s only enough room for one window.

The driveway will be steep, and actually, the flat section in front of the garage should be longer than the approximately 2 m (6.5 feet) I’ve drawn so far.

Without interior walls, each floor has about 48 square meters (517 square feet) of space. That means the ground floor, first floor, and attic with a knee wall height of currently 160 cm (5 feet 3 inches) and a roof pitch of 22°.

This doesn’t yet take into account that the neighboring property has to support the driveway, which will require additional space.
