Here is the plan excerpt. So looking at the plan, south is on the left. Then it probably won’t work with the property?! So the terrace would then be facing west and thus into the "slope"

The slope is borderline for a slab foundation. A 3m wide terrace would be approximately 1.30m below ground level. It is doable, possibly in two steps. If you have the terrain modeling done by a landscape planner, the savings for the basement will quickly be relativized. If you yourself have skill and enjoyment in garden design, the slope offers very nice possibilities. If you just want a meadow for playing soccer or badminton, look for another property.

Yes, good luck with that. If there are so many properties available where you are, then I would keep looking.

The classic single-family house usually doesn’t work on a slope. But that’s why you can rearrange things a bit:
For example, already said it the way I would say it: basement and ground floor, without a cellar. Only that a bit, well a bit more is embedded in the slope, that would practically be a half-basement. You could use that for utility rooms.
You can also place the terrace on the south side, right?
So, you could rotate the house, make the driveway on the north side, and so on.
Would that be an option?
