Which plot to choose in the new development area? Pros/Cons

I suspect it’s not about WA3 and WA4, but the small Kuli numbers in the houses. I would choose 4 - little traffic space, no traffic because of the cul-de-sac, and only 2 neighbors to argue/watch (in the worst case) compared to 3 neighbors at plot 3. Important: Be clear about what kind of house you want to build, not every house fits on every plot. What does the development plan say? On the map, it looks like the little houses of the individual plots are different/predetermined?

Hello everyone,
thank you to everyone who took the time, I did not expect that at all :)

It is simply flat land/meadow without any disturbances nearby and access to the settlement is from the left.
And just right, as SoL had said, I meant the numbers mentioned with a pen, I had forgotten that info, sorry.

No, the type of house is not prescribed, although in my opinion the different illustrations also contribute to the confusion.

We were unsure whether it might be better to accept one more street with a corner plot, since then you have fewer neighbors who might disturb you and it is only the street for residents of this settlement.... Of course, snow shoveling is a factor... But maybe better snow shoveling and a few cars driving at 30 km/h than kids yelling all day in the summer? (Yes, we don’t have children yet :-D)
With house no. 4 in the cul-de-sac, I had concerns that the neighbors might come a bit too close...

This striped area is a bat corridor that may not be built on/sealed and must be designated as a vegetation area. Does anyone know whether one theoretically may not set up a sandbox/ swing there? I have not found any further information about this in the development plan.

Honestly, with the plot sizes, it doesn’t matter at all which one you choose. There is plenty of space to build everywhere, yet every neighbor is still close to you. Nowhere do you really have any distance.

P.S. I would personally avoid a purely south-facing garden, as it would be too hot for me if the sun beats down on the terrace and living area all day. My personal favorite is the plot with 946sqm and a northwest garden. Terrace around the corner to the north and west. Then you can enjoy the nice morning sun from the east or sit in the shade on the west terrace, or go hiking during the day and in the afternoon/evening the setting sun beautifully shines into the living area.

How binding are the drawn-in houses? Just suggestions or already fairly concrete building envelopes? You can also offer the neighbor slightly fewer views through your building style. In the past, buildings were constructed with half as many windows as today ;)

Personally, I quite like 3. You can create a nice west-facing terrace, right next to the common room. Most of the time, people only sit on the terrace in the evening anyway, so south is not as obvious a choice as one might think.

Oh, we actually aimed for the south garden because my wife, as a teacher, would be working on the terrace in the afternoons—if necessary with a roof. And south, so that the living area is nice and bright all year round, that is very important to us. And with a heat pump, we can use the air conditioning function on hot days if necessary...? But we also have no problem with 26 degrees indoor temperature :-) The main thing is bright and no neighbors looking into the living room, and I think the plots would fit quite well for that, right?

The plots numbered with a pen are simply our favorites (because of southwest), but we could apply for any plots in M3.

A silly question—you all say that a west terrace is a good idea, especially for the evening, and I agree. But isn’t a south terrace automatically also a west terrace in the evening? Whether the sun comes from "below" or from "left"—it still mostly lands on the terrace anyway? (Maybe not the last half hour of sunset, but the evening, actually? (e.g., house no. 1+2) Or is that a misconception and it looks different in practice?

Thanks!!

so that it is also nice and bright in the living area all year round

There is also enough light facing north. Just no direct sauna sunlight.
If you are so obsessed with light, still remember that a cozy house/cozy room also needs areas that are not directly illuminated. Otherwise, it feels like a car showroom.

I would definitely not want a south-facing terrace. It really gets warm there because the terrace and the building also store and reflect the heat. People in southern countries take a siesta during the southern daytime and then sit inside instead of on the terrace.
