Hello,

Has anyone here built a house without a basement on a slope? I would appreciate some pictures to get a better idea. We have an elevation difference of about 5 m (16 feet) from the street to the property boundary, which is approximately 25 m (82 feet) away, and the finished floor level (FFL) is planned to be 1.66 m (5.4 feet) above the street, with the garage 0.5 m (1.6 feet) lower.

The slope rises towards the northeast.

Please include a site plan with a north arrow.

A hand-drawn sketch with dimensions is also sufficient.

Above all, the building permit application was submitted already 6 weeks ago 🙁

Oops... off topic.

I just left a Facebook group. This “show some pictures” request works there, where people want to be showered with praise. It only works here to a limited extent. The idea here is to help, but if the building permit / planning permission has already been submitted... 🙄 ... it’s too late.

Hopefully, the application will be rejected. If in doubt, submitting a new application only costs time and a small amount of money.

You won’t be happy with the planned construction. What is the estimated construction budget?

You could upload the floor plans; maybe they are good enough to justify the additional costs of the exterior work.
