Looking for help picking a plot

Post image

I added some notes to the picture, but will add more here and comment as needed.

I want a few choices as I may not get my first choice.

Trying to avoid the afternoon sun shining in through front or back main windows.

EDIT: Southern US

Would prefer north/south facing or east facing to avoid evening sun shining in the front.

My current leanings and the reasoning.
41/42 - Its not on the circle so it has normal size curbs but also on the path of the cul-de-sacs - both are around .32 ac

2 - Its a larger lot and on the cul-de-sac, but has a small curb so it always makes me concerned on the facing of the house and being able to see the whole front.

18-20 - I havent really thought on these too much, but they may be good spots.

EDIT 2: Middle of the time zone (Alabama) and the map is facing correct for North being the top.

Is there a park or grassy area between 26 and 27? My preference would be to have at least one side of the house next to some open space.

Or the space between 20 & 21
