ᐅ House placement on a slight sloping site, any tips?

Hello everyone,

I have bought a plot of land and feel a bit unsure about how to position the house.
The situation is as follows:
20 m (66 feet) wide facing the street
Approximately 26 m (85 feet) in length, with about 3 m (10 feet) rising toward the back—so the land slopes uphill at the rear. Unfortunately, the ground floor is only allowed to be up to 50 cm (20 inches) higher than the street level, so it can’t be raised.
The sun moves in a semicircle from right to left in the picture and sets at the red arrow in the evening.
The development plan requires a setback of 5 m (16 feet) from the street and 3 m (10 feet) from the neighbor.

What is the best way to approach this?
Build the house as far back as possible and into the slope, creating a large front garden?
Position the house toward the front with living spaces upstairs/facing the street? Living room downstairs in the darker half-basement?
Excavate completely and have support walls visible at the back?

Does anyone have ideas for building on a sloping plot that rises toward the rear?

But now you could answer the questions yourself, couldn’t you?
Yes, of course. How can I phrase it as clearly and helpfully as possible?

Then just start simply with the development plan. Either you tell us the name of the development plan, and we will look it up ourselves, or you provide all the information. Plan and text version.

I tried, but links are probably not allowed and PDF is not possible.

Development plan:
City of Bitburg, district Masholder
Development plan no. 100, area “Am Boden”

We are WA3.
3m (10 feet) to the street.
50cm (20 inches) ground floor to the street.

Is the plot already developed? Is the entire side of the street developed? Google Maps shows me this.

No, this is a new development area.
They are just starting with the first house.

Well, I was probably a bit confused by Tannenstraße.
