Hello,

I am planning to buy a semi-detached house, but I am unsure whether I will get enough sun or if I will be sitting in the shade in the afternoon. That is my suspicion. Two semi-detached houses are planned on an east-facing plot, 1.5 storeys with a gable roof (ridge height 7.64m). For illustration, I have attached a site plan. Which half do you think is better? The left or the right one as seen from the street? To the left of the plot is a two-storey architect's office, but at a greater distance because there are parking spaces in between. On the right is a bungalow with a roof, so not flat, but significantly lower than the semi-detached house. I hope you can help me! Dine

There is a site where you can display the sun position for any day|season and time, namely on a map with satellite view. I found it very practical for myself back then. Search for the property on the map and then look at the sun position, for example, in the afternoon. I think the site was called Sonnenverlauf. Buildings and trees etc. must of course be estimated then.

Exactly, it's hard to estimate. I can't do it.

Without floor plans, it is hard to decide.

The floor plans are identical or freely adaptable. However, to my knowledge, they have no influence on the casting of shadows :-). That is all that matters to me.

The answer to whether we would prefer the left or the right side of the house, of course, also depends on which rooms get morning or evening sun and the like.


Narrowed down to the aspect of where one can get more tanned on the garden lounger, I cannot see it that way.
