Hi All,
We are building a new double storey home and have just been told our house has to be modified because it's going to overshadow the neighbours yards. Our block is quite large and the house we are building won't take up the full width of the block, so we've added a garage extension of 2mt. The body of the house as it is, will have roughly 4mt away from the fence line.
We were told the extension has to go, leaving us with a 2mt gap from the fenceline to the garage wall, and also a possibility that the eave on the right side of the house has to go!
What I would like to know is if we have any options before they butcher up our home? They won't even submit the plans with the extensions to see what the council will say.
