Maybe you have some pictures and someone has an idea of how to use/create it nicely WITHOUT this possibly extreme effort. It might also be possible to pile up soil, sort of like a large "raised bed" or a gentle slope in the terrain might also not be a problem.. You don't need that much soil on top anyway, depending on how you want to use the garden. Maybe it will just be turf, a play area or something like that. Maybe just think about it this way, like adding something instead of tearing it down. Also, you don't yet know how much concrete or anything else is buried there...... :eek:

I spontaneously think that it would be a good foundation for a generous pool - or just half of it, and on the other half an elevated pool deck :cool:

Exactly, whatever..... this would definitely spark a real competition of ideas here, in any case I would probably lean more towards preservation.
Our minister, Mrs. Bär, also promises the air taxi in the near future...... so a small landing pad wouldn't be to be underestimated either.

Thanks for the many suggestions. I really also think filling up is a good idea. Then you would just have to make a section for the front area of the house, which I would have concreted (see picture). The idea of the pool has also crossed my mind. But it costs quite a bit of money. I have also thought about maintaining it. Playing a little tennis outside in the garden during free time would also be nice.. :) The place just doesn’t look nice anymore. I don’t know how expensive/demanding a new painting is. I’m happy to receive suggestions.

Referring to your opening post and the various references to the cost issue regarding the expansion of the garden/tennis court, you should first invest 95% of your thoughts and concerns into the house you found. If the tennis court is already so worn out, then the house could........ The house is so cheap despite the current situation because....? From a landscape perspective, it should basically be less cheap, so where is the "catch"?
