... you still have to keep the building within the floor area ratio I.

Yes, the residential building including the terrace.
House 96.28 + bay window 6.90 + terrace 15.00
= 103.18m² (1110 sq ft)
587 / 103.18 = 0.18 < 0.2 floor area ratio I

+ garage + driveway = 0.28 < 0.3 floor area ratio II

You want to become a developer, building a small batch of two single-family homes, but not as a semi-detached house. Whether both houses look the same or are unique models (of which you have only shown one here) is still unclear. I assume you have the creditworthiness for this project; the instigator is a financial advisor; and whether you end up finished or ruined does not matter to their profit. Think carefully about this warning—it’s better than the bullet afterward—that this idea is nonsense: the house with the bay window is so individually a matter of personal taste that building something like this should only be attempted with a concrete buyer guarantee. In fact, any sensible owner of a 1,038 sqm (11,162 sq ft) lot would first look for a buyer for the raw land who has already paid for the subdivision; then, with the money from one half and the subdivision fee paid by the buyer, would wait happily whistling for the buyer of the second half—given today’s market, probably not even long enough to smoke a cigarette. Whether the two buyers then build detached or semi-detached houses on it should be irrelevant to you. At most—if you absolutely want to capture the added value of construction—you could build a semi-detached house, but not without a confirmed sale in place. In hindsight, you won’t have to think long as to why I suspect a financial advisor behind this crazy idea (with you as their useful fool).

This is how it should look!

The faintly translucent object on the 451 sqm (4853 sq ft) "Partial Area I" doesn’t raise any questions for you, or would you rather not throw that at us as a topic since we are already so skeptical about the object on Partial Area II?

Are you under pressure to spend money quickly, or do you just need to sleep on my words of warning first?

Goodness, why does the garage have to be on the south side?

Take the driveway from the north and place the garage directly next to the neighbor’s carport. You don’t need any windows there.

Then flip the house vertically so that the kitchen and dining room face the open south. And if the garage absolutely has to be attached to the house, then flip the layout horizontally as well, move the utility room next to the garage, and connect them with a small passage. This results in a nice sunny orientation and allows you to enter the house from the north.

This thread is unfortunately frustrating. There is no engagement with the questioned points, etc.... Why did you post this here and ask?

I don’t get it either; there’s no response to the essential questions about the drive to approach it this way.

But planning two houses completely randomly oriented, without considering the needs of the future residents (and thus buyers) because they don’t exist yet, unnecessarily shrinking the market, and topping it off with questionable semicircles... that seems to be the plan. Along with an unfortunate garage position and unclear buildability regarding floor area ratio.

The question about the added value of all this effort should come first.
Selling two plots = total X profit.
Selling two houses = total Y profit.
Is the effort, stress, time, and so on worth it for the difference between X and Y?

Some rough figures would be helpful for a discussion. And, as mentioned at the start, the overall motivation behind it.
