Hello everyone,
I am currently planning a single-family house with a double garage on a small 448m² (5400 sq ft) plot. I would appreciate any tips and suggestions regarding the placement of the house and the double garage.
- House approximately 10 x 8.5 meters (33 x 28 feet), although the exterior dimensions may still change
- Double garage 7 x 7 meters (23 x 23 feet)
- No slope, or about 0.5 meters (1.6 feet) gradient from west to east
- 2 full floors
- Gable roof
- Basement with light wells desired
- The plans of the southern neighbor are included in the drawings. Those of the western neighbor do not yet exist.
It is plot number 7. Files 01 and 02 show my current rough placement ideas.
The other files (03) show the plot without the house or garage placed. I can also provide an SVG file in which the house and garage can be easily moved. I am still quite unsure about the placement and would really appreciate any suggestions. Thanks in advance.
Best regards

What do you need a 7x7 m (23x23 ft) garage for? I would significantly reduce the size of the garage to leave a reasonable garden space.

Small plot, large garage – I also view this critically. What is the floor area ratio anyway?
And building beyond the building boundary is probably not allowed. I don’t see any simple way of obtaining a special permit.
Is two-story construction mandatory? That will be quite tight...
