Austin McMansion Ordinance

BEFORE







Rob Sanders Custom Home & Building Designer recently completed work on two projects under the City of Austins "McMansion Ordinance" requirements. The first project (4514 Depew Avenue) is a 1-story home with a 2-story garage apartment behind it (facing an alley). The second project (4810 Rowena Street) is a new duplex in Hyde Park. This duplex was designed on a previous single family lot. The lot slopes with many trees that had to be saved. This was achieved, along with meeting the proper guidelines for Impervious Cover, F.A.R. (floor to area ratio), and Setback/Articulation as required by the Austin McMansion Ordinance. The project also met the rules of the Hyde Park Neighborhood Association. If you fall under the McMansion jurisdiction (Central Austin) and need plans for a new home, remodel or addition, please consider the services of Rob Sanders Design.
