Even if damage was not a possibility, the freedom to control access and use of your own property is a huge value. Which is not to say that its always and everywhere under any circumstances a value that overwhelms all others. It isn't. But it is an important value. A couple of good examples on restrictions on what I can decide on the property on which my house stands: There are also restriction in the US. I might be ok with (reasonable) safety rules and building codes, but other than those type of rules I think generally how you build your house should be none of the government's business (again that's generally, not always under every circumstance). In the US some of the type of rules your talking about would be a matter of private contract, with a home owner's association being associated with the house and with part of the contracts when you buy the house being a contract that you accept their rules. I have less problem with that to the extent it allows for diversity of the rules, but I'm not actually a big fan of some of what HOAs do.
