A method for providing a residential subdivision having a plurality of adjacent lots, an area delimiting a first property line of said lots and a roadway means spaced from said area and delimiting a second property line of said lots spaced from said first property line, comprising the steps of:

• extending side property lines defining boundaries between adjacent ones of said lots, respectively, said side property lines each having respective lateral offset portions and property line sections extending between said lateral offset portions, respectively;
• placing dwelling units on each of adjacent ones of said lots and disposed at predetermined distances from said side property lines of each of said lots, respectively;
• placing vehicle garages on respective ones of said lots in predetermined positions with respect to said sections and said lateral offset portions of said side property lines and said second property line, respectively, so that said vehicle garages and said dwelling units on each of said lots are spaced predetermined distances from said side property lines of each of said lots, respectively, and said vehicle garages having vehicle entry and exit openings facing toward said roadway means, respectively;
• extending first fences between adjacent ones of said dwelling units on adjacent ones of said lots, respectively;
• and
• extending fences from said first fences to respective ones of said garages on said adjacent lots.

In a residential subdivision, a plurality of adjacent contiguous residential properties comprising lots which extend between an area comprising one of a green space and a roadway and an alley spaced from said area, each of said lots being delimited by a first property line at said area and a second property line at said alley, and each of said lots being further defined by third and fourth side property lines dividing said lots and extending between said first property line and said second property line, said third and fourth side property lines dividing said lots each including laterally offset portions, respectively, and property line sections extending between said laterally offset portions;

• residential dwelling units disposed on each of said lots at predetermined distances from said property lines, respectively;
• and
• vehicle garages positioned adjacent to said second property line, respectively, and having openings for vehicle entry and exit to said alley, each of said garages being spaced from said laterally offset portions and said sections of said third and fourth side property lines, respectively, defining the property lines of each of said lots whereby each of said garages may be accessed by an owner of a lot on which one of said garages is situated, respectively, without traversing an adjacent lot;
• first fences extending between said dwelling units on each of said respectively;
• a second fence extending between one of said first fences at least partially along a side property line of each lot to said garage disposed on each lot respectively;
• and
• a third fence extending from another of said first fences along an opposite side property line of each lot to a vehicle garage on a lot adjacent to said each lot, said second and third fences and said garages defining a useable space for an occupant of a dwelling unit cm each of said lots.
