I don’t know how steep the slope is... well, I know the area of course but I really can’t estimate how steep it is. It’s in a vineyard so it’s not exactly flat. But the slope should be about the same.
Our slope rises over 25 m from 29 to 31 above NN, which can still be built on well without a basement. Steeper, then it becomes difficult, and if you have to dig a lot anyway, then it can also be a basement.
I would take the larger one. Once you get used to the open view and in 5 years a fence is built, you have to be very brave. Better to take what is fixed right away.
We definitely want a basement. We have so much stuff and I would also like to have a room for my stuff there.
I wanted that too, so I treated myself to the garage, which will never have a car in it. And the insulated attic accessible by a real staircase with Velux.
