Hello everyone,
After reading quietly for a while and really appreciating all the ideas shared here, I’d like to bring up a topic and hopefully get some feedback, suggestions, and ideas!
I am 34 years old and originally from Munich, where I was born and raised.
Currently, we (my wife and I, with a child on the way, my sister and her partner, as well as my parents) are discussing whether to completely rebuild on our plot of land (currently occupied by a single-family house / 1000 sqm (0.25 acres) / 20 × 50 m (65 × 164 ft) / no zoning plan). The idea is to build a fairly modern house with two spacious living areas (each with its own terrace overlooking the garden, large living and dining areas, etc., and about 200 sqm (2150 sq ft) of living space), including an underground garage and a basement. A granny flat (or accessory dwelling unit) is also planned to be integrated.
I would like to start a discussion based on these ideas and am looking forward to any input or constructive criticism.
Thank you very much.

I also don't think that a distance of 3 meters (10 feet) is sufficient for a three-story building in conservative Bavaria. I would estimate it to be around 4.50 meters (15 feet).
Wasn't it in Bavaria that a neighbor can raise an objection against a building measure?
I wouldn't hold it against that neighbor.

@ypg .. yes, I also see that as a problem. That’s why I immediately adjusted the plot design in the neighborhood plan.

The red frame is now 20x50 meters (65x164 feet) ... but the actual floor plan length would only be 45 meters (148 feet) if the width is correct.
So it would be sensible to find out the exact measurements of the plot.
Here is the entire plan again

What do you mean by block? Sorry, I misled you there: I wasn’t referring to the separate apartment, which is upstairs, but to the ground floor on the left side of the plan.

And what does [...] mean in practice? The common “3 m (10 feet)” setback from the boundary isn’t really a fixed minimum; the rule actually goes further: “… or half the height” (= 1/2 h). So, if the building is, for example, 8.30 m (27 feet) tall, then the setback should be 4.15 m (14 feet).

What I was mainly interested in was how you actually come to around 2 x 200 and 1 x 80 sqm (sq ft) of floor space. You have now put a face on that question 😊

I also kept thinking about how much space would be needed in an underground garage for 6 cars including access routes, and what kind of driveway that would require. That would have required almost as much driveway space as the entire upper parking area, and it would have practically meant a fully underground cellar beneath the courtyard.

There is the cooking area with a ceiling-mounted hood I meant this one:
