Nice but give it some thought if you were to buy here or anywhere given this as the new norm in new residential developments both social & private for rows & rows of terraced (cheaper to build) houses with no front gardens 7 mix of in-curtilage (your own space assigned to house / deeds / land registry) parking, assigned parking in common area, non assigned common area parking here are a few thoughts on the post below as an example
Access may or may not be impacted depending on the neighbours vehicles and how they park them. #parkingwars #entitlement #selfish #bullies #lovehate #cantpickandchooseyourneighbours
Do neighbours have more than 2 vehicles, a work van, adult kids with their own vehicles ?
Is there ample off street safe parking spaces for additional vehicles ?
Visitor parking provision exist on the street or estate ?
EV Charging ? were all headed that way so off street and in-curtilage should be the standard to aim for
House layouts back to back to share on services during construction
Door to door is neighbourly but we all have family we don't get on with so the hope is you get on with your neighbours.
Every door knock they have they're outside your door you hear it all, kids, door to door sales, chats #privacy #ontopofeachother
What if #lovehate knock on the wrong door ?
What looks good on a drawing or 3D image may not be effective in reality so consider a young couple moving in, start a family and kids grow. Also consider an established family with adult children / grandchildren or with partners
Add in people with disabilities and access for the impaired, wheelchair bound or elderly with walkers
Getting the pram / buggy - what if its #twins a side by side wouldn't be possible
Even day to day stuff like getting that wheelie bin from your front window. The kids bicycles, the shopping, the stuff that needs to get into the back garden.
Active travel, bicycles need to come through the house into the rear garden for security so is the hallway and its layout wide enough to allow that ?
Would you manage the same with a cargo bicycle ?
Lament the loss of a side entrance if you want to get a garden shed, cabin, outbuilding for the rear garden (assuming its an aspect useable and big enough) built up from scratch or crane the panels over the house (assuming houses back onto each other so no rear lanes).
Patio, landscaping, extension to rear all that material in and excavations out through the house
Lament the loss of the front garden, bit of greenery, bit of space, privacy from your front window and off street parking
Liveable spaces, quality of living, useability
Parking space width - get your new born in and out of your cars parked in that space without dooring. You might even have to do that on the street before parking the car up in the spaces
Minimum requirements continually under pressure as the requirement for higher density increases.
At what point do you draw the line ? #liveablespace #mentalhealth #space #privacy
