Plot size: 13m (43 feet) wide, 40m (131 feet) deep (neighbor has the same), building allowed up to 2.5 stories, no flat roofs, building envelope: semi-detached house: 10x14m (33x46 feet), detached house: 7m (23 feet) wide x minimum 14m (46 feet) deep. The goal is to achieve 200sqm (2,153 sq ft) of living space plus a basement.
With a 7m (23 feet) wide detached house, can you achieve a good floor plan, or does it feel more like a townhouse? Would you recommend choosing the semi-detached option?
Considering 2.5 stories, space should not be an issue.
Thank you very much for your insights!

My 2 cents... If you are thinking about a semi-detached house, it is definitely important to coordinate, because building one after the other likely means extra effort for the foundation excavation, since safety measures will have to be carried out for the already existing semi-detached house.

However, if you refer to a semi-detached house as an emergency landing, that pretty much says it all.

No, protective measures would only be necessary if one is building with a basement and the other without. But even that is possible.
@tempic ... it is possible, but to my knowledge it involves additional effort (compared to building both at the same time), even when constructing without a basement, because the slab of the second semi-detached house section must be connected to the slab of the first semi-detached house section.
For soundproofing reasons, the floor slabs should not be in direct contact with each other.
This idea is unrealistic. In new housing developments, semi-detached house plots are sold very often. In very few cases do neighbors coordinate their construction. Usually, they don’t even build at the same time.
Have you ever actually built a semi-detached house? There is so much misinformation and speculation in this thread.

Yes, they do not touch each other. However, the excavation pit usually requires a little more space than the foundation slab, and the other semi-detached house is located there. Therefore, additional effort is generally needed.
I have also noticed that semi-detached houses are often built by developers, who naturally construct both halves at the same time.
