Hello house building community!
Wishing you all a nice Easter Monday.
About us: We are a young couple and own a plot of land. We plan to build a house without a basement.
It will be a shell house (shell construction). We are now facing the first challenges in the planning stage.
The plot has a slight slope.
Since every hillside construction is unique, we admittedly haven’t checked the search function for long.
Now we hope to get some suggestions or experiences from this forum. We have two proposals.
So far, the architect hasn’t been able to offer many suggestions except that the garage should be on the left side.
However, having the garage on the right makes more sense for our driveway and usage.
Because if the garage is placed on the right, close to the boundary, the height limit of 3m (10 feet) must be observed there.
We have been going back and forth on this for days.
What do you house builders think about this?
For some reason, I can’t seem to upload photos.
I’ll try again shortly.
But I wanted to send this first before it disappears. 😀

Hello,
If I understood correctly, do you mean this?
Zoning plan / restrictions
Plot size
- 900m2 (9700 sq ft)
Slope
- Approximately 8-9% gradient
Floor area ratio?
Site coverage ratio?
Building envelope, building line, and boundary
- 18m (59 ft) width to the boundary
(- 6m (20 ft) = 12m (39 ft) building line)
- 28m (92 ft) building line depth
(48m (157 ft) to the boundary)
Edge development?
- Garage and greenhouse
Number of parking spaces
2
Number of stories
1
Roof type
- Gable roof
Style
- Simple
Orientation
- Entrance facing southwest
Wishes
- Double garage
- Photovoltaic system
House design
Who created the plan:
- Architect
- Myself
Preferred heating technology
- Heat pump
If you had to omit something, which details / extensions?
- Carport
Why is the design the way it is?
- My suggestion
What do you think makes it particularly good or bad?
Good
- Preliminary planning
- Easy to understand for construction
Bad
- Many new regulations for new builds
Like laws, building codes, civil engineering, etc.
What is most important / fundamental?
- Move-in ready, clear cost overview, no unexpected cost spikes, solid construction, garage workspace, avoid water damage, etc.
I hope this is enough or that I understood what you meant.
Thanks
Best regards
Theo
