Good evening everyone,
I have been following this forum for a while now and am really impressed by how many tips and useful information can be found here.
Attached is the plot of land I intend to buy. It is 649m2 (approx. 25x25m).
My main question now is at what level we should most easily place the house/garage/terrace or even the entire plot?
Honestly, I am also a bit worried about the costs.
Next Monday, I have an on-site meeting with an earthworks contractor but would like to get your input beforehand so I don’t go into the appointment completely unprepared.
The neighbor on the left (1756/20) is at about elevation 540.5, the neighbor above (1756/22) estimated at 543.
The neighbor above has already built a retaining wall on my side of the property.
My idea is to bring the house + garage + terrace up to street level (about 542) and let the rest of the land slope gently down.
Is something like that even possible?
That would mean building some kind of wall towards the street (Buchenweg) / left neighbor, which would naturally cost quite a bit.
As you can tell, I am not very experienced and appreciate any suggestions.
Unfortunately, the numbers aren’t very clear on the plan, but I hope you can make something of it and I look forward to an engaging discussion.
Sorry for the amateur drawing, quickly done on my phone; north is exactly at the corner where the garage is located.
The house is about 10x10m, plus a double garage about 6.5x8m.
Thanks in advance!
Regards

I also believe that the request for a driveway from the "main street" cannot be denied solely based on the planning intent for a parking lane here — but it is justified that the reference elevation was adjusted in view of a significantly more favorable driveway from the side street. I would probably prefer a driveway from the side street in this case. However, it might be worth considering placing the waste bin locations on the "main street" side, as I could imagine that the collection vehicles may not enter the side streets.
