ᐅ Properly Dividing a Plot of Land for a Single-Family House and a Duplex

Hello,
I would appreciate your tips and advice regarding the following situation:
A plot of land with 1100m² (11,840 sq ft) is to be divided so that the following houses can fit on it:
Part 1 – Single-family house with approximately 160m² (1,722 sq ft) of living space (2 full floors, flat or shed roof) + garage/carport
Part 2 – Semi-detached house, each half with about 150m² (1,615 sq ft) of living space (2 full floors, flat or shed roof) + garage/carport
The access road is located at the bottom, on the south side. A 3m (10 ft) wide access path is to be created for the semi-detached house.
The site coverage ratio (floor area ratio) is 0.4, and the floor space index is 0.7. Additionally, the Bavarian setback regulations must be observed.
I am a complete beginner but imagine dividing it somewhat like in the attached sketch. Does this make sense? Are there any particular points to watch out for, or mistakes to avoid? How is it best to arrange garages/parking spaces for the semi-detached house? Does it even make sense to place the semi-detached house at the back? Would it be easier in terms of access and parking to move the semi-detached house closer to the street (option 2)? Which option is more cost-effective regarding shading and best use of space?
Thanks in advance for your answers!
Regards

Now I’m probably facing an interesting mix of planning law, tax issues, and contract matters. Would, subjunctive. That would be the case if you had the funds ready for developing the entire property. As I said, I see two other things ahead of you first:
1. Define clearly what YOU want to build on this land;
2. Make sure the landowner is willing to go that route with you.
Planning law)
Take your own single-family house. Whether the landowner subdivides the rest again or builds a duplex as a community property (e.g., homeowners association), that’s not your concern. Your own plans will keep you busy enough.
Tax issues)
All three or four homebuilders buy directly from the owner of the entire property, which is straightforward.
Contract matters)
Beware of the foolish idea of forming a demolition project company with the other homebuilders. Buy a property that is “already demolished.”

b. convey this idea to the current property owner.
