Hello everyone,
After a long search, we finally had the chance to reserve a suitable plot of land in the municipality of our choice. It is a new development area, and the plot we selected is a corner lot on a "play street" with an area of just under 580 sqm (about 21 x 27.5 m). So far, we are quite happy with it.
The only downside, in our opinion, seems to be the access to the plot from the lower side of the plan (approximately south). It would have been better for us to have a driveway from the left side of the plan (approximately west), allowing us to place the garages on the north side. Unfortunately, parking spaces are planned along the property there, so our driveway must now be from the south.
This somehow makes the placement of the house (assuming 8 x 11.5 m, sample floor plan) and the garages not quite straightforward, in our view:
I’d be interested in your opinions on this. Maybe someone has a similar situation and found a great solution. Any other suggestions are also welcome.
Many thanks in advance and best regards,
Jens

This somehow makes the placement of the house (assuming 8 x 11.5 m, sample floor plan) and the garages not quite straightforward, in our view:
- House positioned as far north as possible, garages next to it on the east -> very long driveway, large paved area, house pushed very close to the west side, so no terrace/garden possible there anymore
- House positioned as far south as possible, garages beside on the right -> only north garden and north terrace possible, which is not really what we envision
- House placed as far as possible in the northeast corner (3 m distance each), garage with 5 m distance (minimum according to development plan) from the southern edge -> "awkward" path layout between garage and house to the front door
-> but still seems to be the best option for us and is also shown in the picture
I’d be interested in your opinions on this. Maybe someone has a similar situation and found a great solution. Any other suggestions are also welcome.
Many thanks in advance and best regards,
Jens
