Search tip for what I believe is a skillfully designed bungalow:
-> Rainer Roth Project VSB
The floor plan is on slide 4. I find the integration of the garage with the entrance and the access through the hallway at the bend particularly well done. The plot there is similar.
A slightly more compact presentation can be found on the Schöner Wohnen website, "Family Bungalow with an Open Floor Plan."

There will be a 7 in front of it. Of course, everything above is still open. Below, it would require a lot of personal work or relocation, accepting that, for example, the electrical wiring in the basement might be surface mounted.
Is the disposal of the excavation material listed anywhere? Excess excavation material will be removed.
As already mentioned here, €525,000 for a KfW 40 Plus house is quite optimistic. You should read carefully what is included in the offers. It is common for some items to be "accidentally" left out.
I don’t like the floor plan; there is an incredible amount of wasted space. But, of course, that is a matter of personal taste.

This design is extremely intimidating: the style is genuinely that of a small construction company with an office and owner’s apartment on the premises – even the garage looks exactly like the typical small workshop with a workbench and storage for everything that regularly needs to be loaded into the company vehicles. The main building dates from around 1960, and the garage is even older, from when the site was still a farm, later upgraded with a rolling shutter door. They even thought of the entrance with an external staircase to the raised ground floor – truly eerily authentic, right down to the window sizes. I can hardly believe this is a new build; it looks so much like a conversion with all its compromises. It’s as if someone bought an abandoned business and is now converting the office rooms for living purposes.
The idea of designing a building as a habitable sound barrier for the garden is misguided – it’s like the tail wagging the dog – and hopefully this is recognized as an unfortunate approach. The trend of the boomerang-shaped floor plan is mostly known from bungalows. By the way, the load-bearing walls are oriented in the wrong direction. Are you trying to fool us early for April Fools’ Day?
