Which floor plan offers the most advantages?

Hello everyone,

I have a plot of land that is approximately 8.25 m wide. The building window is about 8.25 m (entire width) x 17 m length. However, I do not want to build across the entire width because I want a passageway to the garden. I now have two floor plans:

Floor plan 1: 5 m x 17 m: Parking spaces would be next to the house, approximately 3 m wide driveway along the entire length;
Advantage: window surfaces on the side. Disadvantage: cars often have to be switched.

Floor plan 2: 7 m x 12 m: Parking spaces would be in front of the house. I like this layout much better.
Advantage: cars can go in and out without considering each other.

I like floor plan 2 much better; the spaces in the house are more usable.
My question is, however, is 1 m on the side enough to get through with, for example, a mini excavator, wheelbarrow, tools, etc.? I know there will be hardly any space on the left and right; what's important to me is that I can somehow get through.

Are there everyday problems I haven't thought of yet?
Who has such a narrow passage and can reassure me, since I am actually leaning strongly toward floor plan 2.

Thanks and regards

My question is also, is the 1m on the side enough to get through with, for example, a mini excavator, wheelbarrow, equipment, etc.? I understand that there will be hardly any space on the left and right, what’s important to me is just that I can somehow get through.

Normally, 1m is enough for many things. Even the small mini excavators can get through.

I like floor plan 2 much better, the areas inside the house are more usable.

So you’ve already made a decision internally ;)

Without knowing the floor plan now, 5m is brutally narrow and hard to structure. For me, it would be a no-go without a second thought if I could have 7m.
What is more important to you? Comfortable living 99% of the time of the year or easier access in the last percent (how often do you need more than one meter?).

Are these the exterior dimensions? I really can't imagine a house with 5m exterior width. Depending on the wall thickness, only 4m-4.5m remain inside after subtracting the walls. I would really like to see the floor plan. I would definitely choose the 7x12m option.

Not answerable without further information.
I am confused by:

Building window is approximately 8.25m (full width) x 17m length.

Although not the building window (building boundaries are often continuous), if one is allowed to build the full width, then it must be a row house plot, and then you have no options with "I'll just build as wide as I like." Row house plots belong to closed construction types. This is regulated in the development plan.
Open construction types must comply with the state law setback, which is 2.5 or 3 meters. I do not know any other regulation or exceptions. Maybe occasionally possible, but then explicitly stated. Show me the site plan including the development plan. Also the floor plans. Where do those come from? Windows facing the neighbor must also comply with fire protection regulations; this is again regulated by the setbacks (state building code).
Could it be that you just googled narrow floor plans without knowledge assuming everything is possible?

I really can’t imagine a house with 5m external width. Minus the walls, depending on wall thickness, only 4m-4.5m remain inside. I would really like to see the floor plan.

Houseboats and mobile homes have interesting floor plans that also work for 2-3 people.
Google shows you: Hausboot Schwan Hammerbrook or Houseboat Hamburg at Ferienwohnung direkt

but if you are allowed to build across the full width, then it would have to be a terraced house plot, and then you don’t have options like "I’ll just build as wide as I like". Terraced house plots belong to the closed building style. This is regulated in the development plan.

I don’t suspect a development plan, but I also don’t believe in options – rather in an obligation to build on both sides. We are probably talking about this plot:
