Digging in, backfilling,
Position the house cleverly and plan the outdoor area so that as little material as possible needs to be transported away.
That’s why I would have set the house further forward.
Your budget is far too low. Recently, someone had a terraced house costing about 2,500 euros per square meter near Ingolstadt, without any special extras.
Your budget needs to increase significantly, and you will have to build considerably smaller.

Ok, you convinced me. I’ll file it under "dream big" and consider smaller, more "standard" floor plans. Above all, choose a plot of land that is easy to build on!

If you want to build in town, it’s definitely more challenging.
And I still haven’t come to terms with the fact that building in town is impossible for me...
