We have reserved a building plot. However, the building regulations are so restrictive that we simply can’t find a suitable house.
The most problematic is this:
Single-story construction:
In the residential zones WA and MDe, the eaves height of gable roofs may be a maximum of 3.75 meters (12 feet 4 inches), and the ridge height a maximum of 9.00 meters (29 feet 6 inches) above the standard ground level.
The eaves height of shed roofs (lower horizontal roof edge) may be a maximum of 5.00 meters (16 feet 5 inches), and the ridge height (higher horizontal edge) a maximum of 7.00 meters (23 feet) above the standard ground level.
For shed roofs with a staggered upper floor, the height of the horizontal roof surface (roof terrace) may be a maximum of 3.25 meters (10 feet 8 inches) above the standard ground level. Solid parapets as a boundary above this height are not allowed.
The roof tiles may only be matte, red clay tiles.
Do you have similar regulations, or is this really a special case here?
We also need space for 3 children.
Best regards, Sandra

We have decided to keep looking.
There are too many compromises we are not willing to make.
Also, the builder still has a slurry pit on his property, and the wind usually blows from that direction.
That is probably also the reason why the plot hasn’t been sold yet.
So now we are searching again. By the way, the other development area is at the A of the W!!!
The third one only has tiny plots left.

Best regards, XinetteEven small plots can be beautiful. Size alone doesn't determine that.
