Hello everyone,
I want to build a carport on my terraced house. In principle, it shouldn’t be too difficult. Ideally, it should be partially attached to the house, but part of it will have to extend beyond the building line.
I’ve attached a sketch.
The project will be built in Bavaria. The person at the building authority told me that there is a development plan that applies, so I need to submit an "application for exemption from the provisions of the development plan." In principle, this is possible, but I have to ask the neighboring property owners for permission.
Now, the following questions:
- On the adjacent property above, there is a light gray square marked—it is a transformer tower owned by the energy company. Their boundary is right next to mine. Does anyone have experience with such cases? Would they typically refuse permission?
- Some carport suppliers have told me that carports up to 18 square meters (approximately 194 square feet) in Bavaria generally do not require approval. Is this true? I can’t find any information on this.
- I currently have two quotes, and they are very expensive. One includes a fence that I want between the transformer tower and my carport: 11,000 euros, the other does not: 8,000 euros. I find kits online with dimensions of 5m x 3m (16.5ft x 10ft) for 1,300 euros. What are your experiences or what would be a reasonable price here? The carport should have a glass roof, otherwise no special requirements.
Good luck

Usually (?) carports are not allowed to be placed too close to the driveway, at least here with a minimum distance of 5m (16 feet).It depends. The main concern with garages is the door. Our development plan differentiates between electric doors (no specific requirement) and manual doors (5m (16 feet) driveway clearance). With carports, you drive directly in, so the 5m (16 feet) rule is not necessarily required. Since our development plan explicitly regulates this, there is probably no separate rule in the state building code of Baden-Württemberg. I cannot say anything about Bavaria.H
