Hello everyone!
My parents own a rented plot with a house built in 1960.
My wife and I are considering whether we want to build a house there for ourselves. (Demolition of the existing house)
I have kindly received the development plan from the municipality. See attachments.
Now, as an unknowledgeable person, I can interpret a lot into the plan. Therefore, it would be great if you could help me with a few questions.
I don’t see anything in the development plan about floor area ratio, floor space index, eaves height, etc. Which other documents do I need to request from the municipality to be certain about further regulations? For example, the building usage ordinance mentioned in the declaration (see attachment)?
Is it allowed to use the entire area bordered by the blue building line as the ground floor?
One attachment shows my attempt to estimate the blue bordered area dimensionally in Google Maps.
I suspect there is a maximum roof ridge height, which with a 50-degree roof pitch limits the attic floor area so that it is significantly smaller than the blue bordered area. Do you see it that way too?
Does the development plan allow the attic floor area to be smaller than the ground floor area?
For example, if the ridge runs from north to south, but the roof only covers 2/3 of the north-south length of the ground floor => roof terrace possible on the south gable?
To my understanding, the garage may only be as large as indicated by the red dashed line.
Currently, a masonry hobby workshop is attached to the garage on the east side, and a timber shed is attached to that reaching the residential house.
We like this L-shaped framing of the southwest garden, but in my opinion, it does not conform with the development plan.
How likely is it to be allowed to attach outbuildings again there with a new residential house (double garage and hobby workshop, no shed)?
Thanks already for your opinions!
