setback lines

In the US they are called "setback lines" -- the setback distance from a building to the property boundary in which construction is not permitted -- usually for aesthetic reasons.

In your text, I would say: "Minimum building setback distances from the property line". If you need to make a verb, you can say something like "Buildings shall be set back a distance of... from the property line". [Usage may be differrent in the UK.]

Just noticed the different spelling of "differrent" above -- oops! Пардон, this is not even American English...
