Hanging house in the Southwest Palatinate - Our House Construction 2.0

And one more note: A stair system that goes from your terrace all the way down to the last terrain level would of course be the most expensive solution. You could possibly divide it into smaller sections from terrace to terrace...

A basic problem is, of course, that the slope declines when viewed from your main terrace, meaning that you actually have nothing visually appealing from a well-designed outdoor area. (For that, the slope must rise from the street side and the main terrace has to be built into the slope. That’s how it is with us, and we then terraced the slope twice and cut back the last part to the boundary.)

In that respect, you could of course also use simple shuttering blocks or rectangular planter stones for slope stabilization. When reinforced with concrete and rebar, they will properly stabilize your slope and the appearance is anyway just for the neighbors. (Please be careful with the half-round planter stones, they are not as statically load-bearing.)

He has also already offered to do something in the outdoor area. He usually doesn’t take on such jobs anymore because he no longer has much time for gardening and landscaping work, and he said he doesn’t want to make promises to people and then have no time for the job for ages. But within the scope of the new construction and since he has to come back to the property with the machines anyway, he offered to definitely prepare the driveway properly. He said that would make sense so you don’t have to do the work twice if he only fills it in now.

With the volume of work involved here, I can very well understand his interest in doing gardening and landscaping for you again. ;) I couldn’t resist making an offer either :cool:

For the kids, I would definitely integrate a slide into the slope.

They also come in wider versions, for the parents. A little stream with small waterfalls also brightens up the view.

Brilliant, a slide into the infinity pool would be optimal....

And if you have a large photovoltaic system with storage on the roof, the electricity for the water pumps costs nothing at all.
Best to have an infinity pool with a slide on one side and a pond with waterfalls on the other side. That would be great
