At some point, you’ll regret planting it there. The fir tree will grow huge and block your light. A nice fruit tree would suit that spot better.

Yes, we recently had two fir trees (or similar), about 15 m (50 feet) tall, cut down. Besides the light they were blocking, they also dropped a lot of cones and resin. They had already been planted by the previous owners.

I would use the fir again as a Christmas tree next or the year after, but without the roots. Then plant something smaller in the front garden.
Large trees are great in a suitably large garden, but it’s better to place them somewhere at the edge.

The lighting is not the problem; there is only the garage there.

If necessary, I'll use the chainsaw. Although my wife will probably be really upset with me for that :-). That area in front is her domain. She can handle it. I'm just the guy who carries out the orders.

... and then the tractor for the roots!

My acquaintance has a stump grinder, and my neighbor has a large wheel loader.

A stump grinder is sufficient. However, you will need a building permit / planning permission for that.

Then you make sure it does not grow large enough to fall under the tree protection regulation.
