Hello everyone,
My girlfriend and I have reserved the following building plot through a selection process within a development area:

We are still considering whether to ultimately take the plot. We have until early September to decide. We are still at the very beginning of the process. Regarding the orientation of the plot, it is actually quite good (the main entrance could be placed on the north side, with the garden on the south and west sides). What do you think about the feasibility of building a single-family house on this plot?
Development Plan / Restrictions
Plot size: approx. 552m2 (5940 sq ft)
Slope: no
Floor area ratio (FAR): 0.4
Gross floor area ratio (GFA): not specified
Building envelope, building line, and boundary
Edge development: no
Number of parking spaces: 1
Number of stories: mandatory 2
Roof type: gable roof
Architectural style: modern
Orientation: see screenshot
Maximum heights/limits: eaves height 6.41m (21 ft)
Other requirements: roof pitch 18–25 degrees
Homeowner Requirements
Style, roof type, building type
Basement, number of floors: 2
Number of occupants, age: 2, aged 34 and 35
Space requirements on ground floor and upper floor: not yet finalized, aiming for a total living area of 180m2 (1940 sq ft)
Office: family use or home office? Both, both working from home
Number of overnight guests per year: 2-3
Open or closed layout: open
Conservative or modern construction: modern
Open kitchen, kitchen island: open, kitchen island
Number of dining seats: 4-6
Fireplace: yes
Music/surround system: 5.1 system, but should be integrated into the living room
Balcony, roof terrace: yes, if possible
Garage, carport: garage
Utility garden, greenhouse: possibly a greenhouse at a later stage
Additional wishes/particulars/daily routine, also reasons for certain preferences or exclusions
Are there any factors we should additionally consider in our evaluation and decision?
Is the desired house size compatible with maintaining a pleasant garden area on this plot?
Thank you very much for your input in advance.

The eaves height should be around 6.21 m (20.4 feet) for all of them.How do you determine the eaves height? In the development plan, the eaves heights are specified relative to sea level. So for your location, it’s 641 meters (2103 feet) above sea level.

I probably would have chosen a different one. But most likely, you rarely get a choice. If you really had the luxury of choice.
Just out of curiosity: which one would you have picked?

So in your case, 641 meters (2103 feet) above sea level.There are reference elevation points at the roads.M
