Hello,

Has anyone here built a house without a basement on a slope? I would appreciate some pictures to get a better idea. We have an elevation difference of about 5 m (16 feet) from the street to the property boundary, which is approximately 25 m (82 feet) away, and the finished floor level (FFL) is planned to be 1.66 m (5.4 feet) above the street, with the garage 0.5 m (1.6 feet) lower.

The building permit / planning permission application was submitted over 6 weeks ago 🙁

What? Before the survey?
For now, stay calm. Please show the plans here, and maybe the application can be withdrawn. What do the experts here think?

You could share the floor plans; maybe they are good enough that the extra costs for the exterior work will be worth it.

To be honest, I find it hard to imagine that a house design can be adapted to a suddenly noticed slope just by adding ugly noise barriers and by slightly digging in and adding a show staircase between the street and the front door to make it ready for submission.

The terrace receives a maximum of sunlight behind the garage in summer and at midday on the upper level.

The rooms on the ground floor at the back do not get very bright.

Coordinate with the neighbors
Move the house as far back as possible.
Place the shaded garden at the back.
Position the sunny terrace at the front.
Consider locating the garage as a boundary wall to allow for a sufficiently large front yard.
Fill the front yard up to house height—if permitted. This way, passersby won’t be able to look directly into your windows.

More interesting than the planned construction budget, in this case, is the planned budget for the landscaping.
What do you think, how much will this cost you, including L-shaped blocks and fall protection?

We have now increased the budget for the outdoor area to 25,000, and we will do all the work ourselves. I want to use concrete blocks and not build any retaining wall higher than 1.5 m (5 feet).
