Can 300 Square Metres Land Be Sufficient To Build 6 2 Bedroom Flats In 2 Floors by llade(m): 5:09pm On Jan 12, 2017
I recently bought into an estate in Abuja. D design for the 300 square metre plot is for six 2 bedroom flats with 2 on d ground floor, first floor and second floor respectively. The building from the plan will occupy 246 square metres and am just wondering if the remaining 54 square metres will be enough for parking cars. Am expecting each flat to have 2 cars each.

Forget about the square meters. What is the dimension of the land... that will be more useful.

That's like half a plot by Lagos standard. 300sqm won't be able to accommodate the building with adequate parking lot for d occupants.
I suggest u redesign the building. U can make the ground floor a clear open space, while u add additional floor to it. This will make the whole ground floor space a parking lot or play ground for kids. U can contact me for the structural design of the redesigned building. Just PM me and I shall reply u.

I have been to d developer's office today and appealed for d plot size to be increased to at least 350 square metres. Hope they will accede to my request cos parking cars may be a challenge.

OK. Normal small plot in Lagos/Ogun/Oyo is like 450sqm (50x100ft or 15x30m) so that plot is kind of small.
You may want to do 4 Units of 2 bedrooms (2=Ground Floor & 2=First Floor) so as to have ample parking space.
More reason I have always prefer 60x120ft (18x36m) plot size.

It will still depend on the dimensions (Length & Width) of the land. It may be possible.
Please try and find out the dimension as that will help you immensely. That square meter can be in any dimension.

Then consider including a basement in ur house. Am a contemporary engineer who likes innovative design. If u attach a basement. D super structure can still follow similar designs of other estates around, whiled substructure gives u all d parking space u need. Still we can do the design for u
