Do I understand you correctly that you want to cut down the terrain from the street all the way to the top and then secure it on all sides with a retaining wall?

Either build it like this or on the slope with a basement. There are no other options. But it will probably come down to a partial basement.

Level from street level?

Retaining walls cost money,
every cubic meter of excavation costs money, disposal and transport,
the excavator costs money.

Just from the pictures I say it will be expensive, really expensive.

Depending on the slope, split level, or even building the ground floor with the back wall into the slope. For example, cool bedrooms that have normal daylight.

Option 1. Remove soil and set L-blocks at this size: This will be very very very expensive

Option 2. Basement on a slope: This will be very expensive

I suspect that you will be badly surprised by the additional costs and that it will open your eyes. Basement 70k€ is not uncommon + L-blocks over one meter wide... phew. You can skip the partial basement, it won't be significantly cheaper.

If you like the plot and have an extra 100k€ available, then you should definitely buy it. If not, then stay away from the parcel.

Ok, and what do you think about the plot of land opposite? See attachment

You also need L-blocks to retain the slope towards the corner of the plot, right???

Just look at how high the neighboring building is. You would have to set your house exactly that high as well. And since I assume that the garden + terrace are not supposed to face the street, you need L-blocks + filling + compaction there (up to the height of the neighboring house).

That would be possible even without a basement. But you would then be out at least €30k or more.
