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

Hello everyone!
We have purchased a triangular plot of land. As if that weren’t complicated enough, there is also a large oak tree that must be considered during the planning. In our initial considerations, it quickly became clear that the floor plan will have an L-shape.
Does anyone here have experience with this type of plot and a correspondingly shaped floor plan? What additional information is needed to get meaningful advice?
Best regards

I always have to play around with such measurements ... Well, then I guess I have to quote Hans Rosenthal and Kermit: "You think that was: fantastic!" or "Applause, applause, applause!"
Even though a tiny bit of concrete information from the original poster is still missing to verify your design, at least there is a visual basis for the argument over the emperor’s beard (after all: which emperor is clear in Aachen, Charlemagne).

Elevations: 252.56 left, 252.31 top, and 251.35 bottom. I’ve found it again now... it’s just unfortunate that not all the information is combined in ONE post.
It’s not that much, but the issue with supporting the neighboring property will remain, and windows cannot be installed in the basement without additional excavation of the terrain... and this is 2 meters (6.5 feet) away from the sidewalk.

Most of the quotes are completely taken out of context. Yes, but that is secondary. My concern was the mindset they come from and the atmosphere they create.

There won’t be any more windows in the basement without additional excavation of the surrounding ground I was thinking of strip windows facing the street and excavation towards the west.

Who says that? from post #35 is convincingly answered. My suggestion to the original poster:
1. Call the building authority tomorrow
- Arrange an appointment to inspect the building file for the plot
- ask about the cost
- ask what proof of legitimate interest is required
2. Ask a friendly employee to make copies of documents you consider important or photograph them yourself (ask first and please ensure the camera is parallel to the document surface, especially with plans)
3. Draw a plan including the oak tree and the desired house outline
4. Call the environmental office the day after tomorrow
- Arrange a meeting to discuss your project
5. Discuss options with the helpful staff member
6. Mark the non-buildable area on the plan
7. Read the first thread Floor plan planning – Read before posting! and open a new thread with your plan

Yes. But that's beside the point. I was referring to the category they come from and the atmosphere they create. That feels too much like stereotyping to me.

No hard feelings. We just have different opinions, and that’s perfectly fine.

@Oakland ... then get serious ... we need exact measurements ... exactly where the oak tree is located, etc.
And then sketch out how you imagine it. Your underground garage also needs a reasonably decent entrance with not too steep a slope, otherwise there will be issues with the car’s front bumper and so on.The oak tree is located—by the way, not on the property—17 meters (56 feet) away to the east.
If we position the underground garage (6 meters (20 feet)) as close as possible to the northern property boundary, the driveway slope should be relatively gentle.
