Setbacks
Outbuilding setback from the fence
France
Outbuildings follow the same R.111-19 default: ≥3 m or on the boundary; the local PLU usually governs.
Distances et règles
Outbuildings — a shed, garage, bathhouse or greenhouse — are set back from the neighbouring boundary: you may not build in the strip right next to it. The roof slope and drainage must also stay within your own plot and not shed water or snow onto the neighbour. The exact distance depends on the country and local development rules.
To boundary
At least 3 m or on the boundary (RNU default; PLU may differ)
France — Town Planning Code, Art. R.111-19 (default setback)
Limitation importante
Ceci est une aide à la planification, pas un avis juridique. Avant toute construction, vérifiez les règles d'urbanisme locales, les servitudes, les exigences du gestionnaire de réseau/services publics et les bâtiments voisins.
