Hello everyone,
I have been a silent reader for some time now, but we have reached a point where I need your help.
The plot of land is already purchased. I have been working on creating a floor plan on my own for a while. Our architect has postponed the project for now due to lack of availability. However, since we don’t want to wait any longer, we are looking for a building partner.
We want to build a modern urban villa using solid construction, with a separate area for the grandparents (not a typical granny flat, but an internally separated living room, bedroom, and bathroom with only one entrance and a hallway on the ground floor).
Additionally, I would like to have a trench collector installed, connected to a heat pump. To support our own power supply, a photovoltaic system on the roof would be possible. Controlled mechanical ventilation would be the icing on the cake.
The plot size is 604m2 (6500ft2). It is located in a second row. The driveway is also part of our property. The previous owner subdivided their garden and then sold it to us.
I am attaching the current development plan (it is from before the subdivision). The hall shown on our plot no longer exists. I took the photo with south at the bottom and east on the right.
Perhaps someone has an idea of how the house could be positioned there. The possible building envelope would be 11x11m (36x36ft) or 11x12m (36x39ft). There should also be enough space for a double garage or a garage about 9 meters (30ft) long.
Maybe someone here knows a good architect, construction manager, or general contractor from the region (I’m not sure which option would be better here?). The building site is in Wuppertal.
If any further information is needed, I am happy to provide it. I appreciate any advice.

Isn’t it possible to place the house on the eastern boundary? That way, you would have a nice southwest-facing garden “in front.” That was actually suggested by an architect. However, the whole family didn’t like the idea. The main reason against it was that they want to have privacy and quiet at the back (on the east side) without disruptive neighbors in front or on the side. The downside is that we would get little afternoon sun, which is a pity.
After that, the idea came up to build the 9m (30 feet) long garage on the north side with a terrace on top, so the terrace would get afternoon sun. But the terrace on the north garage will probably remain just a wish.

However, the garden would become narrower because of the driveway, everyone would have to walk past the garden, the driveway would be longer, the open landscape would not be visible from the garden, the finished garden would be built over, and the recycling area from the demolition would have to be re-established.
