The eaves are normally located on the longer side of the house. If the eaves are on the short side, a house looks unusual, so not exactly nice – as I said: like a cut-out row house.
-> long side of the house parallel to the street.
You can assume that you want to build a relatively normal standard house in terms of shape/floor plan, otherwise you would have mentioned it if it were different ;)

If it is supposed to be SW down there, then you are probably right – then the plan is not oriented to north.
It would still bother me to have a hidden entrance; there are better options.
And as I already said: it will probably be the case that you have more freedom to place the garage/carport than just the yellow area.
The yellow area will very likely be an extension of the building window for the parking spaces, anything else would be nonsense: the upper area is only about one meter, the lower one five, which is not enough for a parking space but precisely enough for the boundary building that one can do but probably does not have to.

Painted a plan by Yvonne roughly onto the property ... that's how the directions are to be understood - right?

The orange area from west to north would then be the evening sun in summer.


I would have understood the eaves direction like Yvonne now.

Has the neighbor already built? Then try to extend the site plan and roughly sketch how the neighbor's house is situated.

it's fine. I also checked on my phone earlier, it looked a bit different there. Here’s my quick fine-tuning again ;)

;) .. I just wanted to make clear that in your version there is actually still sun on your terrace in the evening in summer, while in this version: it gets rather sun-scarce, at least on summer evenings.

Hi,

thank you very much for your previous suggestions. I have added the building again to the site plan. Additionally, I have included the neighboring property with the house.



Thus, I would have my west terrace opposite my neighbor’s southeast terrace.

What else comes to mind. According to the development plan, the neighbor's house is about 1 meter higher than my house. Could that affect the sunlight exposure?
