Setback & Buildable Area

Setbacks are the minimum required distances between a building and the property lines. They create the "buildable envelope" that constrains where a structure can be placed on a lot.

Setback Types

Front setback: Distance from the front property line (street-facing), typically 15-30 ft

Rear setback: Distance from the rear property line, typically 15-25 ft

Side setback: Distance from each side property line, typically 5-15 ft

Corner lots: May have two front setbacks

Calculating the Buildable Envelope

Buildable Width = Lot Width - (Side Setback x 2) Buildable Depth = Lot Depth - Front Setback - Rear Setback Buildable Area = Buildable Width x Buildable Depth

Additional Constraints

Setbacks define the maximum footprint, but the actual building may be smaller due to:

Lot coverage limits

Floor area ratio (FAR) limits

Parking requirements

Building height restrictions
