Hello dear forum community,
I am new here and just starting to deal with the topic of new construction.
I have already received a few exposés, and in one of them there is a passage that, to be honest, I cannot make sense of.
For clarity, I am attaching an excerpt of the corridor map with the property that is for sale.
Under Development it says:
The owner of the front property receives a building encumbrance for his bungalow for the length of the bungalow.
By googling, I found out that it probably has something to do with setback areas.
What does it concretely mean for me in this example?
Do I understand correctly that I have to maintain a distance from the left property boundary equal to the length of his bungalow and can only start building there?
I tried to visualize what I mean in a second drawing.
Yellow lines are the length of the bungalow and the red one then from where I would be allowed to build?
Or what does that exactly mean?
I would be very grateful for your help.
Best regards!
