@GeordieJLK Please reference this video at about minute 11 on. It has a very creative workaround that I think you may like? (Thanks, BluebellFlora)

First, create a basement. then select it underground when you cam above ground it will look like pic one. Then you click on the yellow line and then click remove. then you have what you see in pic two. Otherwise, then no the terrain tool will not let you push the dirt up against the walls.
I hope this was some help
Nice idea, and I wish that would work, but I need only half of the room to be submerged underground.
What I’ve done is used potted willow to cover the gap, and that will have to suffice.
Thanks for trying to help 🙂
@GeordieJLK I tried @RavenLure 's method and was able to make the full floor above ground. I will try to make you a video to show how. It will take me a bit... hold on.
Sorry to me to-post, do you mind explaining how you managed to get the room above ground and the terrain flush? I have built a whole house already and really want to be able to do the terrain as it needs to be.
@nottovvy Welllll... Terrain height tools are my friend and nemesis. Terrain height can be super easy, extremely fidgety, or somewhere in-between, depending on your goals, lot, and the stage of building that you are currently at. Hopefully this info will be of some use to you in your situation:
Edit: Please note that in the case of what I mentioned above the home is on a foundation already. Does your home have a foundation? If the above is not what you meant, and if it doesn't help to read through the posts on this thread and to watch the video linked to in the solution (post #21), can you add a post with a screenshot and clarify what is different in your lot from the above and from the information in this thread?
@GeordieJLK Okay... I hope that I did this correctly for what you want to do in your build, and for what @RavenLure was intending. Please let me know if I did it incorrectly. If I did it wrong hopefully RavenLure will come back and demonstrate it correctly. Sorry if I misunderstood anything.

I appreciate the effort, but I want it so that the terrain is only high on one half of the room, not all the way round.
The attached photo is what I’m trying to do. It’s the grass bit under the balcony that I want to get it to reach the wall.
@GeordieJLK Yes, that won't work with what I tried. Perhaps I misunderstood what @RavenLure was recommending and she will have a clarification. Your photo is a great goal! Interesting and lovely build! That does remind me of the build from Aljay. I would dearly love to make a proper walkout, but it just won't work as, in any way I've found. But she did some clever workarounds, as it looks like you are finding some creative ideas as well.
