You don’t have much space The view isn’t pretty either
You’re seeing this too dramatically: problems, if any, are with the houses themselves, not the garages, which are much lower than the houses that block the sun. And that applies to almost every property. In that respect, there’s no need to unsettle the OP here. I would simply make a short driveway with a carport/garage. South or west, whatever... or it depends on how the floor plan is adjusted. Connection to the house can be done via a pergola. P.S. to the OP: try drawing with a pencil on paper, then you can focus on the essentials.
I am currently going through my messages here and see that the question is, of course, answered contradictorily. So: the kitchen is not what it promises. There needs to be more workspace, so island size and closer to the line, swap the utility room and wC/wardrobe,
