Hi, we are building a house in Baden-Württemberg where two parking spaces are planned. However, I would like to place a garden shed on one of them and fence it as part of the garden. Does anyone check this after construction? Or is having just one parking space enough in Baden-Württemberg?

Parking spaces on private property should not be underestimated. I agree. We even have three official parking spaces and two unofficial ones—an accessible green area for when more guests arrive or for larger deliveries. I also find it quite frustrating when streets are fully parked because residents deliberately provided too few parking spaces. The same applies to public parking lanes, which are usually meant for visitors but often end up being used for second, third, or even fourth vehicles, or for residents’ trailers or caravans.
Regarding enforcement, you might be lucky or not. For example, here the responsible officer changed, and the new one started checking driveway widths, warned neighbors about weeds growing toward the street during their vacation, requiring removal within a deadline, and other issues that the previous officer never cared about.
The fact is that I want to place a lean-to garden shed there to at least have some storage space since we don’t have a basement. There is plenty of space around for parking. If there really are any problems with that, I will simply put a prefabricated garage there, which I will also not use for my car. We definitely have one parking space, but I also can’t find any information stating that two are required.

The development plan requires 2 parking spaces, but who still checks that after the final inspection? Dude2000 schrieb:

Then check the garage regulations of your state or region along with the building code and local ordinances. Garages are generally not allowed to be used as storage rooms or as substitutes for basements.

I find it quite selfish to give up necessary storage space (like a basement) at the expense of the public—for example, parking in public traffic areas…

Especially in rural areas, there are few dedicated parking spaces along the street, so the car is parked on the street. As long as only 1-2 people do this, it is not a problem, but if many start doing it, the residential street becomes single-lane. There is surely also the possibility to place a garden shed elsewhere on the property. The subforum for plot planning will certainly gladly help you with that.

No, rural 300 m2 (3,230 sq ft) plot, the second car could be parked nearby without much trouble

No, rural 300m² (3,229 ft²) plot; the second car could be parked nearby without much searching. I wouldn’t want you as a neighbor. The two parking spaces are meant to keep cars on your own property and prevent blocking everything. A lack of visitor parking, etc., is an annoyance for neighbors. Possible dangers to playing children should not be underestimated either.
Well, usually you check the regulations before buying and compare them with your own requirements. If they don’t match, then either it’s the wrong plot of land or compromises have to be made.
The need for more storage space should also be identified and considered during the planning phase; otherwise, the planning was done incorrectly.
Here, it seems that both the wrong plot and poor planning are coming together.
