Boundary construction - hide ugly rear house wall

How is the boundary construction regulated? Is the setback area then on your property? Could one "extend" onto the brick building like a semi-detached house?

I've thought about something like that too. The question is where the driveway/garden would be, I can't quite imagine that yet. I also find the lower things quite unproblematic, but it takes ages until the brick wall is nicely overgrown. Neighbors who don't look in much is of course great.

Now the question to you: what can be done here to have a somewhat nice view?

I'll throw a few ideas into the room:

[*] Put artificial grass on the wall. Then attach 80cm beams to the wall to imitate a fence and screw 2 or 3 life-sized cow sculptures onto it. Then you have a vertical pasture. Who else has that? (Google images for "cow on house wall Prenzlauer Berg") [*] Such an area also works well as a large private cinema screen. But it often attracts guests. (Image search "facade cinema") [*] Look for solutions for vertical gardens. That's great too. [*] A mural with some perspective could broaden the view. Does anyone else in the area have a sea view? Keyword "facade art" [*] Tall crops can also help. Miscanthus for example.

Hahahaha.. cool ideas

Especially the vertical cow pasture.

In the end, it just has to be something you don't get tired of after a few years. Everything in the direction of art (painting, etc.) is therefore difficult.
Of course, it also has to stay within the price range...
Miscanthus would probably be really good for the first few meters. Then maybe the giant bamboo.

The current owner of the property always brings up a support for climbing plants in order not to directly damage the house wall with the plants. But I also wonder how they want to prevent the arms from stretching outward. Too much distance would take usable space from the property again.

For better classification, I'll throw in the development plan:

Yellow hatched indicates the existing boundary development (the further south, the higher)
Light blue is our property.
Dark blue bordered in red is the building window. We like it as it is.
Between the east side of our house wall and the west side boundary development are 8m.
As said: don’t dramatize the existence of the wall. That the next house stands so close is normal here.

Yellow in the middle is the access road for the two properties in the second row. Accordingly, that is also the access to the property.

I would find out if you can build directly onto the wall, and then see if you can create a nice house with it.

Or face the wall with natural stone so that it looks grown and not artificial.

Hmm, so you have the driveway to the south, the neighbor to the west, and the wall to the east. Orientation-wise, that's not exactly optimal. For me, it would also depend on what "below the standard land value" means for you. For us, the standard land value is €850/sqm. For 730sqm, that would be €620,000. Even half the standard land value would be too much for the plot for me. But of course, everyone has to decide that individually. Regarding the trellis, I can't imagine that would work for ivy, for example. My parents had their garage wall covered with it (actually with a trellis), but it was still all over the wall. Afterward, you could still be liable if something happens to their house. I also know knotweed and bindweed for facade greening, but whether the facade would remain intact would probably require good research. The safest would be tall trees, but then it takes years.
