Award-winning architecture – uncompromising, enduring value, outstanding!

What emerges when wood is not merely a building material, but defines a home’s character? This solid-timber house in Weyarn combines clear architecture with a living experience that can be felt immediately. With approximately 217 m² of living space, natural materials, generous rooms and a seamless transition into the garden form a harmonious whole. The larch-wood façade gives this smart home its warm, natural appearance and allows it to engage in dialogue with the surrounding landscape. The back-to-back design provides privacy from the adjoining house. At the heart of the home is the living and dining area with an open kitchen and fireplace—a place where family life naturally comes together. Large glass surfaces lead onto the terrace and into the garden. Where could the day begin more beautifully than with breakfast outdoors and end with an evening by the fireplace?Upstairs, the sleeping area and flexible rooms offer a range of possibilities. A space currently designed as one room can, if required, be divided into two—for example, into two children’s bedrooms. A sauna completes this private level. The next floor contains a guest room with bathroom and a study. The house was built as a solid full-timber structure using spruce wood. The wood shapes not only the construction, but also the indoor climate and atmosphere. You see it, smell it—and feel it. The architecture has received an architecture award. Architect Benno Bauer’s signature is evident in the clear design language, precise choice of materials and interplay of space and light. The terrace and garden extend the living space outdoors. Together with its location in Weyarn, the house creates a home between nature, privacy and proximity to Munich. A house that needs no explanation—could this be exactly the place where living feels right? The house also meets the highest energy standards: built in 2022, it features a heat pump, underfloor heating, energy efficiency class A+ and a final energy requirement of just 15.4 kWh/(m²·a), combining sustainable living with contemporary comfort.
