One might think that this thread was unnecessary or that all of this could have been spared here in the forum.
With a difficult plot of land, you have to work out your goal through brainstorming or various approaches. And not only at the kitchen table, but also here you sometimes forget the prerequisites. You go from here to there and then have to reset what is possible again. You practically work your way down from 240 sqm to 160 sqm to 150 sqm.
Here it is set: €500,000, so roughly a 150 sqm house, slope with 10%.
Then there is also the factor that the desire for children is not defined as 2, but as -3.
This makes a big difference in room planning and sizes. While you can get by with 4 meters of walking length in the kitchen with one child, with three children it is already 5. A bathroom can work well with 8 sqm, with 5 people you should possibly go for 9-10 sqm. While two people can do without space in the middle of a bathroom, space is needed with (small) children.
While two people can manage with a simple sofa in front of the TV with a depth of 3 meters, you need a second sofa at an angle, an L-sofa, or a large lounge to do justice to the children. Possibly also stools, armchairs, or a bench.
While four people can manage with a 180 cm dining table, you need at least 2 meters in length. Not to forget that children also bring visitors: one child visit with one child means 2, a child visit with three children means 6! Children at the dining table.
While one can grant a fairly spacious room to one child, with three children you try to manage nearly three equally sized rooms. And if that does not succeed, somehow a highlight is needed so that the child feels valued, for example a wider window, south-facing orientation, or a bed niche with promised cave installation.
In combination with the budget, some wishes should or must give way to effective family space planning: second entrance, second utility room on the upper floor, walk-in closet, pantry. And other extras for which I currently lack imagination.
Now there have been many rotations in the position of the house, high, low, split or not. Ultimately, the budget counts here again.
And of course you can also do a simple carport with corrugated metal, but I think the money should rather be invested in the house than in a massive roof of a carport. Whoever adds it up ends up with over 50 sqm for 2 cars, just over 40 for 3 children.
For the house, I am thinking of the floor plan of Maxime 330 in the variant with 3 children's rooms. That would fit exactly with a house length of 11.60.
The garden side would then look something like this or similar

and yes, even such a terrace installation costs money, but it is still one of the cheapest alternatives.
