Land planning / floor plan planning

Yes, the state building code states that an eaves overhang is considered a "subordinate building component and is not included in the calculation."

But there was a 2018 ruling where someone apparently went too far: He had about 1.80m and was then required to reduce it to a maximum of 0.50m - since then that would be assumed. According to the ruling, because the law - even if it does not say so explicitly - is of course not meant to allow an eaves overhang of any size. 0.50m is sufficient.

Well, if that's the case, it certainly doesn't get easier. Should I also find something in the state building code about parking spaces arranged one behind the other? I couldn't find anything about that online?!

No.

Uff... you buy a plot of land without knowing the dimensions? But square meters are at least specified concretely? I see, I still have a lot to learn ;) Well, with my planned house width, that actually doesn’t change anything, as long as I’m willing to make compromises in the parking space / carport area... Let’s assume distance to neighbor: 4m due to roof overhang House: 9m Then with an 18 meter plot, five meters remain for a carport, or four meters with a 17 meter plot – and it really shouldn’t be narrower than that... So I’ll say goodbye to the idea of a double carport for now...

But qm2 are at least named specifically? I see, I still have a lot to learn ;)

No, always approx. We are not in precision mechanics here.

But it does feel a bit like that :D

But seriously: I am sitting at the notary and the contract states "The object of purchase is plot XYZ with a size of approx. 606 sqm."

In the end, though, it won't hardly be 550 sqm, will it? Are there "common" deviations? Or is it more about centimeters?

Parking spaces I would expect to be regulated in the development plan. For the same residential unit, I have not yet seen captive parking spaces excluded. If the state building code says 50 cm roof overhang is tolerable and you build 80, then I do not see the difference, but rather add the entire overhang to the distances. The roof overhang is then no longer subordinate, partial subordination does not exist in my opinion.

Some municipalities have a parking space regulation
