The man of the house has had some fun with 3D to illustrate the terrain situation with our idea.
I could be satisfied with going down 1.5 m from the terrace to the northwest garden via stairs. This way, only the triangle between the terrace (6m long) and along the building boundary (max. 7m) in the northwest garden would have to be adjusted. On the valley side, there would then be an "embankment" (I have not yet found the definition for the embankment) of 20-50 cm, since the 209 contour line runs diagonally. The 50 cm would level out over the remaining 2.5 m, in my opinion, without any problem, and I wouldn’t even call the slope a compensation.
On the street side, we would leave the terrain as it is at the reference height 210.5, except for the driveway to the garage and the northeast entrance area. However, we probably wouldn’t get around a staircase with at least 7 steps leading to the front door.
Up to the corner of the house, the driveway to the garage would not even be sloping. But from the corner of the house, a 30 cm slope would have to be created so that there is a clear height of 2.3 m in the garage. We could even live with doors instead of gates, so that in an emergency, a clear height of 2 m would be enough.
Unfortunately, no matter how we start the planning, we always come back to this variant.
Therefore, we gladly accept suggestions from those who think along...
Except for more floor-to-ceiling windows, I wouldn’t know what else one would do differently today to the parents’ house basement and call it modern.
I can’t yet come to terms with different garden areas. We imagine, similar to the open living concept, an “open” garden as well. Admittedly, the complaining is on a high level since we now own almost 4 times as much land as we would have bought about a year ago. Thank God others were faster than us... back then, there was only a 6-meter distance to the street on the south side, and not even green there, because the parking space was still there, and the ground floor was also 50 cm below street level :-O
The embankment requirements in the development plan only apply to the street. I haven’t yet looked into the general requirements in the state building code or the building code, or whether the requirement would be there.
Our ulterior motive is also that the northwest garden remains accessible at least with a mini-excavator. It should be able to drive from the garage at basement level (I don’t want to give up on this idea yet ) into the garden. That would give us more freedom in planning the northeast side. Here, a later oversized single garage would be my idea.
Thanks for the pictures. The sketches look less wild than in reality :-O.
