The historic gardener’s estate with exceptional development potential

The time-honored gardener’s estate combines historic charm, cultural heritage, and remarkable development opportunities into a rare real-estate gem. The unbroken record of ownership dates back to the 16th century. Even earlier, a predecessor building on this site—the so-called “Preßlgut”—was documented in records. The property owes its current name to the Lodron gardener Martin Mayr, who acquired it in 1723. Since 1851, the estate has remained continuously in the possession of the same owner family. A distinctive landmark of the property is the majestic ginkgo tree in front of the main house, whose roots date back to the 18th century. Together with the historic building fabric, it lends the property a unique atmosphere and makes it an exceptional testimony to regional architectural and cultural history. Key data - Plot area: approx. 2,115 m² - Living area: approx. 252 m² - Usable area: approx. 400 m² - Historic building fabric worthy of preservation - Magnificent 18th-century ginkgo tree - Quiet and sought-after residential location - Stunning panoramic view of the Untersberg and the Tennen Mountains Exceptional development potential With a floor area ratio (FAR) of 0.6, the property offers attractive prospects for future development. This results in a potential residential usable area of up to approx. 1,000 m². Whether as a representative private residence, an elegant multi-generational solution, an ensemble of high-quality residential units, or an exclusive project development—the options are diverse and offer exciting prospects for both investors and owner-occupiers alike. All measures require prior coordination and, where applicable, approval by the competent authorities. One of the development reserves is the spacious attic, which could be suitable for creating additional living space. Implementation here, too, is dependent on the relevant official approvals. At the rear of the property are the former threshing barn and the stable wing. These characterful parts of the building define the unmistakable courtyard character of the estate while also opening up interesting opportunities for careful revitalization and contemporary use. The existing building volumes offer potential for additional high-quality residential or usable space. Historic charm amid nature-close idyll The property is surrounded by a beautifully mature garden. Old trees, established structures, and several fruit trees create an idyllic atmosphere and emphasize the original character of the historic estate. At present, the property comprises two separate residential units in need of renovation, which impressively preserve the authentic charm of the house. Traditional vaulted ceilings in certain areas lend the rooms a special character and, together with the generous proportions, create a unique living ambiance. Rare opportunity for lovers of historic properties A property with such a well-documented history, building fabric worthy of preservation, a generous plot, and at the same time exceptional development potential comes onto the market only very rarely. This special property uniquely combines cultural heritage, nature-oriented living quality, and long-term value stability—an exceptional opportunity for visionary owners, investors, and lovers of historic architecture.
