Selected
within the range of the building (setback) line from the street
Building line also: 'Baulinie' = Bauabstandlinie.
Compare control lines. 'On divided highways the roadways sometimes have independent vertical control lines” (own emphasis) – which means that sometimes they don’t.'

Use of advertising hoardings near roads (1) No person shall, near to any road, ... put up any advertising device upon any advertising hoarding (a) unless such advertising hoarding is at least its own height from the building line of any street....
The line up to which such (public) buildings are constructed is known as control line. Generally, control lines are one & half times that of building lines.

or 'roadside edge':
Stop signs should be placed so that the sign roadside edge is at least 6-12 feet from the edge of the pavement, with a 2 foot minimum for curbed roadways. Placement of the stop sign is to be on the right side of the roadway at either the stop line or (4) feet in advance of a crosswalk. If there is neither a stop line nor a crosswalk the sign should be placed where traffic can stop and clearly see both directions before entering the intersection, and no greater than 50 feet from the intersection.

Informieren Sie sich über bestehende Bauvorschriften in Bezug auf den Straßenabstand für Ihr Grundstück. Eine Terrasse auf mehreren Ebenen, die vertikalen Raum ideal nutzt und bei der die untere Ebene als Stauraum oder Steinterrasse genutzt wird, ist eine mögliche Option.
For Small Space Check local building codes about setback requirements for your property; you can always consider a multi-level deck that makes use of vertical space, using the lower level for storage or a stone patio.
