Hello everyone,
I have been following for a while and would now like to ask for your advice. We are still very much in the early stages and would actually like to build an L-shaped bungalow with approximately 115-120 square meters (1236-1292 square feet) of living space (for 4 people). The plot we have in mind is about 547 square meters (5889 square feet).
However, I am a bit concerned that the plot might be too small for our plans. The plot should also accommodate a carport for 2-3 cars, a pool (max. 3x5 meters (10x16 feet)), a wooden shed (for bicycles, garden tools, etc., max. 4x4 meters (13x13 feet)), and a sandbox. My partner and I are not very keen on gardening, but the above items should definitely have enough space.
What do you think? Is this all feasible?

18 m (59 feet) property width
6 m (20 feet) carport
3 m (10 feet) building setback on the other side
leaves a maximum house width of 9 m (30 feet). ... A very simple calculation.
The first sample floor plan is 11.71 m (38 feet) wide ... so it’s already not suitable.No, the house should ideally be built behind the carport, so there is still space for a parking spot for the son in front of the house (possibly angled).
Therefore, you can assume 12 meters (39 feet); anything less would be tight for 3 bedrooms plus a possible office.

I will sit down and start drawing in the next few days.
When drawing, keep in mind that the maximum allowed building length along the boundary is 15 meters (49 feet). Twelve meters (39 feet) are already used by the carport.
Yes, of course you can do that, but you shouldn’t place the carport in the corner of the house.
However, you should also check how far the house is allowed to be set back from the property line. There might be a minimum building setback. After all, you need to account for a length of about 14 or 15 m (46 or 49 feet).
