Hello everyone,
our municipality will soon be selling building plots in a new development area. We are currently trying to select the "best" plots... I know, that sounds very optimistic... but in the application we have to name 5 building plots that would be suitable for us.
Of course, the plots at the edges with an unobstructed view of fields and vineyards are the most sought after. Below I have attached a screenshot showing the 2 (in my opinion) best plots (the plan is oriented north). We would like to take advantage of the beautiful view and install a large window front (a kind of glass façade) on the west side. On the south side, we want a lift-and-slide door (about 400cm x 250cm (13 feet x 8 feet 2 inches)) – marked in red on the picture. The distance to the property boundary would be only about 5.5m (18 feet).
The house should be an Energy Efficiency House 40 (Effizienzhaus 40). My husband is a bit skeptical about the glazing on the west side. He thinks the window front should be on the south side – but there we would not have a free view...
There are also 3 plots with neighbors on the south side. The problem there is that the house would be positioned a bit lower and the free view would be about 1.5 to 2m (5 to 6.5 feet) above the single-family house. So, you would have to look upwards or plan the living room on the first floor.
What do you think? Would having the glazing on the west side be a deal breaker for an Energy Efficiency House 40? Textile sunshades are planned.
We intend to consult an energy advisor only after we have a confirmed allocation for a specific plot.
It is important for me to start thinking early about a potential building plot – with all the pros and cons...

2896 and 2898 were our first choices. Applications are still open until March 31. The photos were taken at building plot 2896. We were awarded our desired building plot!!!
There were exactly 179 applicants, and 25 plots were allocated. I don’t know which rank or how many points we had, but we must have been quite high on the list because we got what we believe to be the best edge plot.
