First of all, thanks for the many responses! The tendency is very clearly towards the north garden.
FOR WHAT?
Who sits in their garden in crappy temperatures?
Actually, me. From November to February, whenever the sun comes out at noon on weekends, I quite like sitting on our south balcony in the current apartment wearing a thick jacket. Also, I once lived in a basement granny flat that never really got bright at any time of day despite a large window front (due to massive shading caused also by an overly large balcony above). Since then, sunlight/daylight in living spaces has become very important to me. Well, you can also place the living room facing south to the street even with a north garden, but then you basically need privacy screening again.
Carports often have different regulations than garages. Ask your building authority if a carport may be placed closer to the street and if so, where exactly. Without this info, I wouldn’t start planning.
I’ve already asked, it’s a very tough issue with the carport. The development plan does not allow it, but does not forbid it either. At the moment, I have to assume an uncompromising no — which is a shame, because a (double) carport at the street would make the whole thing considerably easier in any variant of the house.
I wouldn’t put a bed under the window. There’s no quick window cleaning then. You have to climb on the bed for that and then you have to change the bedding afterwards.
Good tip! Then we’ll probably rather make the north window in the bedroom a bit wider (possibly fixed glazing with a narrow window next to it).
The last submitted plan is now actually oriented north, right? So north straight up, meaning even more northwest in the back garden? This garage with a gable roof on the next-but-one property is about how high? 6 m?
Yes, oriented north. The huge garage on the next-but-one property towards the west should be 6–7 m high. The garage itself would be a bit too close for my taste for the autumn evening sun, but my bigger concern is that the neighbor to the west will realize this autumn while passing his property that this boundary garage already casts a lot of shadow in the afternoon and then switch to the south garden instead. Then I would have his presumably 8 m high house as a shade giver for my north garden (see sketch), but wonderful evening sun in my south garden. A bit of a dilemma.
I would also recommend the larger north garden to you. Pull the house to the 5 m line like your neighbors. Everything else would look strange, I think. I would try to place the house as far to the right (east) as possible. That would mean the garage elsewhere. This would allow a continuous west-north terrace. Swap kitchen and guest room. Furthermore, it is also true that sunlight does not only reach the terrain in one direction, as long as the surrounding development is not too dense.
The surrounding development is somewhat unpredictable.
The floor plan would have to change quite significantly with a north garden, since the garage would then have to be moved beside the house and the entrance accordingly to the south side. I am currently seriously considering throwing the whole planning over again. Then you start again almost from scratch with all the discussions... Living room, dining area, kitchen from south to north along the west side would probably be the consequence.
