Need advice: What are the limitations for Canopy in a landed home?

[mrenotalk 0]

Hello friends

I understand that for semiDs, there needs to be  setback of 2 meter on the side and rear.

I want to incorporate canopies to prevent rain from coming in via the windows. Something like what the photo depicts.

I am told that for the side of the house, the canopy can extend up to 1 meter from the boundary wall.

However, for the rear of the house, there cannot be such a canopy. Or that’s what I am told. FYI, currently my rear wall is 2m away from the boundary wall already.

Can anyone who is knowledgeable about this rear canopy kindly advise me if indeed there is such a constraint imposed by regulations? I basically want to install a canopy at the backyard of the house too.

Thanks very much in advance!

canopy is always limited to being extended to up to 1m from the side and rear boundary. Front is 2.4m from boundary. 

See attached guideline. Canopy setback is based on roof eaves setback

by regulations, you are not allowed to build the canopy all the way to the boundary wall.

Allow to protrude max 1m into the setback
