Description

A representative country house with a thatched roof, more than 450 m² of living space, an exceptionally peaceful and private location, and extensive grounds offering a wide range of possible uses.

This property combines sophisticated architecture and high-quality living with a high degree of privacy. The spacious areas surrounding the house offer opportunities for comfortable seating areas and individual concepts – from keeping horses and other animals privately to sports and leisure activities.

Built in 2003, the residence stands on an approximately 3,508 m² courtyard and garden plot. In addition, around 22,182 m² of fully fenced land adjoins the property directly.

Generosity as an Architectural Principle

The exceptional scale of the house becomes apparent as soon as you enter. The spacious foyer leads the eye through the gallery into the impressive living room. High ceilings, elegant doors, deep sightlines and large expanses of glazing define the architecture.

The living room forms the prestigious centrepiece of the ground floor. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer views of the private grounds and allow abundant daylight to enter. A fireplace creates a cosy atmosphere on cold winter days.

The adjoining kitchen is generously proportioned and can either be opened to the living area, depending on how it is used, or separated by high-quality glass sliding doors.

Two bedrooms with dressing rooms and a luxuriously appointed bathroom with shower complete the ground floor. The living areas feature elegant terracotta tiles and underfloor heating, while dark cherry wood parquet characterises the bedrooms.

Gallery and Private Living Areas

An elegant stone staircase leads to the upper floor. Here, the open-plan gallery with library forms one of the property’s architectural highlights.

The comfortable seating area by the balustrade offers a direct view into the living room below. The open design connects both levels and gives the house its distinctive spatial impact.

A comfortable bedroom with its own shower room and another spacious room complete this floor. The latter can be used flexibly as a second living room, prestigious home office, library, studio or private retreat.

The attic above the self-contained apartment offers additional potential for expansion. More than 100 m² of unused development space is available here. Possible uses include a high-quality fitness and wellness area or a versatile hobby and leisure space.

Separate Apartment

An apartment with its own entrance complements the living concept. It comprises a private hallway, a shower room, a comfortable living room and a separate bedroom.

The spatial separation allows for a variety of uses – for example, for guests, family members or staff. It could equally be designed as an independent workspace or retreat.

A Property Also Suited to Keeping Animals

The size and layout of the grounds offer particularly favourable conditions for people wishing to keep animals.

The existing infrastructure is geared especially towards keeping horses. A modern open stable measuring approximately 18 x 15 metres provides space for around eight horses. A washing and grooming area, a tack room and a riding arena, which can also be used as a paddock, complete the equestrian facilities.

The approximately 22,182 m² of fully fenced land lies directly beside the residence. This keeps the distances between the house, stable and pasture short. At the same time, numerous areas of the house offer views of the private land and the animals.

Use is not limited to horses. Depending on the individual concept, other forms of animal keeping are also conceivable – for example, alpacas or sheep. The existing land and ancillary buildings offer a wide range of options for this purpose.

A barn provides additional storage space, including for storing feed.

Energy and Utilities at a High Standard

The property’s technical installations complement its high standard of living with a considerable degree of self-sufficiency.

The property is heated by a pellet heating system. Two photovoltaic systems with capacities of 21 and 19 kWp have a combined output of 40 kWp. An E3/DC storage unit with backup power functionality stores the electricity generated and continues to provide it when required.

In the event of a power failure, essential technical systems in the house and the pellet heating system can continue to operate. The animals’ supply has also been taken into account: water can continue to be pumped via the existing cisterns and electrically operated pumps.

Two E3/DC wall boxes complement the technical equipment.

The house was equipped with network cabling when it was built in 2003. This also provides excellent conditions for working from home and modern digital work structures.

Privacy Begins at the Property Boundary

The approximately 2,685 m² courtyard grounds are clearly enclosed by a Sylt stone wall and a high wrought-iron fence with an electric entrance gate.

The design of the driveway and entrance area emphasises the property’s exclusive character. The size of the grounds and the adjoining land also create a pleasant distance from the surrounding area and a high degree of seclusion.

Several parking spaces, a double carport and a generously proportioned garage offering room for up to ten vehicles are available.

A Property of Distinction

More than 450 m² of living space, a thatched roof, sophisticated architecture, a separate apartment, more than 100 m² of potential additional floor space and over two hectares of enclosed land come together here to create a property offering an exceptional range of possibilities.

The property is aimed at people who value stylish and prestigious living while also appreciating the freedom to pursue animal keeping, sports, hobbies or other personal interests on their own grounds.

A country house of distinction – with a sophisticated living environment and grounds that open up a wide range of possibilities.
