We have a sloped plot and have planned a living basement, which will have floor-to-ceiling windows on the downhill side.
Would you recommend building a basement or a slab foundation with slope stabilization for this kind of incline?
Our current building footprint is 9.12m (30 feet) by 8.5m (28 feet).
There is a slope of about 1.8m (6 feet) over the 8.5m (28 feet) length.
I have attached the survey results (plot 1295) with the elevation profile and our thoughts on the house placement.
Basically, we would prefer to build larger on a slab foundation with a wood frame structure and avoid a concrete basement.
I’m looking forward to your ideas.
The soil report is unfortunately still in progress.
P.S.
The civil engineer would recommend a basement, but I would probably say the same in his position.

No garage or carport?
A combination of a prefabricated house and a custom-built basement should be carefully considered.
A true finished basement requires thorough planning.
It is also important to optimize slope stabilization measures.
I will give it some thought tomorrow.

Then quickly take a look at the financing section.
There are still 3 points missing:
Custom upgrades
Provided by the builder
Everything that is not listed
Just the structural engineering caused us additional costs of 20,000.
The landscaping costs 50,000 + x
For that, you get a terrace but no proper connection to the garden.
Play area
Pool
Vegetable garden
Should all that be accessed through the house?

I gave it a try.
Top of finished floor 254.5 m (835 feet), carport, top of finished floor basement 255.5 m (839 feet)
The third option seems to be the best. Finished floor level garage and basement at 255.00 m (837 feet), so hardly any retaining walls are needed.
However, I am not familiar with the local building regulations or planning permission.

This will require the most retaining walls. Will the height allowed in the development plan / building permit accommodate this? At the boundary, heights of up to 4.0m (13 feet) will be needed.
I also have no idea what the plot number 1296 means.

Thank you so much for your great help.
I will take a closer look at it calmly this evening.
