Bricks cannot be put at ground level. They will deteriorate.

if it it's only on the front are they even using full bricks or just brick face?

I think on a residential exterior I’ve usually seen full bricks, but they’re only a facade nowadays, not structural, so it’s only one deep and then normal wood framing and plywood behind the brick. I have seen at least once on a house show where they just made lines in stucco and painted it to look like brick, and brick face tiles on the interior.
