Should the garage really stay there? So far back on the property and thus so far away from the street?
We have neighbors and I hear him curse every winter morning when he first has to shovel out the driveway before he can get out of the garage. I would reconsider. At least a bit closer to the street, possibly plan the garage longer overall and think of two or three meters as a shed, which can then stay there because the access is from the garden.
Originally, the garage was planned further forward; you can still see that in the site plan. However, I had forgotten the entrance platform, and with an overall width of 6.50 m, it would constantly be in front of the driver's side, or the children would be hopping up the platform when getting out of the car... We did not want to increase to 7 m, as the garden space is too important to us.
Is a roof planned from the house to the garage, sort of a carport between the house and garage? If you cover it over the entrance, you get a sheltered entrance. That would be personally pleasant for me.
Between the garage and the house, a carport with a covered entrance is indeed planned. Exactly how is still in the development phase. Most likely, the garage will be limited to 6 m and a wooden shed or similar will be built behind it. It looks more appealing from the garden side than the concrete wall of the garage. That is also why we decided against a double garage in favor of garage/carport.

Here in the south, on the plain, we have snow on a maximum of 2 days; that's bearable ;) The street is just a small dead-end road and the driveway is a bit tricky, which doesn't really come across in the drawing. That is why we also positioned the house a bit further over the eastern minimum building zone to have maneuvering options. We have already staked out the individual points in a parking lot and tested the maneuvering.
