Prices and location of the real estate
The Zurich Gold Coast is in great demand for homeowners from both national and international backgrounds. The excellent living conditions and the high quality of life, coupled with a favorable tax base, make the entire region a magnet for handsome wealth and income. After the franc shock in January 2015 and the associated unrest on the real estate market, real estate prices on the Gold Coast have stabilized. The most sought-after locations in all lake communities are accommodations with excellent lake views, peace and easy access to Zurich. Land prices up to CHF 4'000.00 per square meter can be achieved here. These include in Zollikon the area around the Goldhaldenstrasse or the Schlossbergstrasse, in Küsnacht the districts Goldbach and Heslibach and in Erlenbach the area around the Pflugsteinstrasse or the Lerchenbergstrasse. In Herrliberg highest prices are paid in the streets around Freudackerstrasse and Geissbüelstrasse. The same applies in miles for the area around the Glärnischstrasse or the locations around the Teien- and Schönacherstrasse. Middle locations are usually found near the village centers and in an elevated position with limited lake and foresight. On average, a maximum of CHF 2'500.00 per square meter of land or CHF 14'000.00 per square meter of living space is paid for new buildings. The highest prices reach all land as well as large, private mansions with a lake on the 13 km long Seestrasse between Meilen and Zollikon to the city limits to Zurich. Whoever wants to increase above the lake, but still wants to live close to the city and seeks out large, unobservable properties with privacy, chooses the municipality Zumikon with its famous golf course and the exclusive micro locations around the Islerenstrasse or the Chapf. Calm and green oases with orientation to the Greifensee offer the municipalities Egg and Esslingen, which offer by the Forchbahn a direct connection to the city center of Zurich to the world-famous opera house and the Forchautobahn the shortest distance to the winter sports areas in the Swiss Alps. Preferential here are the locations in the area Weiherstrasse or the residential area Güeterstal.
