The Right Lot: Setbacks and Contextual Parcels - Part 2

 

It all comes to an end. The series “Selecting the Right Lot” concludes with this episode where I describe how setbacks can affect your backyard suite design, by giving the details about how the Bridgeland backyard suite came to its unique design.

How setbacks can affect your design:

  • The minimum distance between the house and the suite

  • The minimum distance between the suite and the rear property-line

  • The location of the amenity space

  • The overall square footage of the suite

In this video, I jump back and forth between conversions (feet and meters). I apologize if I confuse anyone.
