ᐅ Site planning for a single-family home with a double garage

Hi friends,

I have the following question:

How would you plan a single-family house with a basement, courtyard, and garden on this plot?

Attachment: Plan showing two plots. However, only the "left" plot is intended for building.
Planned house size: 8 x 10–11 m (26 x 33–36 ft)
Orientation: Top of the plan is north
Plot width: 12 m (39 ft)

Since the right plot on the image belongs to my parents, I would be allowed to build right up to their property line.
However, I do not necessarily want to do that and would prefer to stay about 1 m (3 ft) away from the boundary.

I look forward to your opinions and suggestions.

Best regards

Birdie

Whether you stay 1 meter (3 feet) or 3 meters (10 feet) away, legally it is the same: a building encumbrance must be registered in your parents’ land register.

Where is the road? Where are the other buildings located? Does the plot have a slope?

Having north at the top is already great — many people here don’t manage that...

Is the street also located at the top of the plan?
Why are there additional survey points along the long sides— is the boundary line not completely straight?

The parents would no longer be able to build on their plot at all; after taking over the setback areas, nothing would be possible anymore.

Even with boundary construction to the "right," there is little space left on your property: only 8.98 m (about 29.5 feet) wide, plus a 3 m (approximately 10 feet) boundary garage to the "left."

Merging with the parents’ plot would offer significantly more buildable area. I assume there is no development plan; based on the plot dimensions, I suspect the land consolidation process has not yet been completed. Does it even have official building land status?

Edit: I just noticed you actually already have a thread about this: https://www.hausbau-forum.de/threads/efh-sinnvoll-auf-Grundstück-platzieren.13645/

I agree with that. This subdivision only makes sense for semi-detached housing.
It basically doesn’t matter who owns the neighboring land: although your parents would approve the setback area and have it registered on their own property, they wouldn’t be able to do anything else with that plot. If they want to keep it for emergencies or similar reasons, it would have very little value as an unbuildable lot... maybe as leased land for a paddock or a flower meadow or something like that.
For you, it still means you’re building on a very narrow, strip-like plot, with all the disadvantages that come with it.

And here’s another thread where those who reply are simply ignored. That really takes the fun out of it.

Do the parents want to build as well?
