Charming family home with a special flair

Très chic French, beautifully Flemish, a little bit Swiss—this enchanting refuge in the heart of Oberursel-Oberstedten blends the lifestyle culture of different traditions into a family home of the most charming kind. Set back in a second row, as is common in the district due to its originally agricultural, manor-based structures, this property lies like an oasis between worlds—mature trees, Mediterranean herbs and fragrant flowers make you forget the stress and bustle of everyday life. Following the course of the sun, idyllic outdoor spots can be found around the pretty house, inviting you to enjoy the sun or a sundowner depending on the time of day.

Entering via a stylish foyer with cloakroom and guest WC, you step into a spacious living and dining area with open-plan kitchen and plenty of light—floor-to-ceiling windows and doors open the room onto a sheltered terrace and promise wonderful moments outdoors, from morning coffee to convivial barbecues. The fireplace, refurbished in a classic style, shows that people like to enjoy life here—a good book, a warm tea—when the weather turns unpleasant outdoors, the crackling fire and flickering flames create coziness and a feel-good atmosphere. Another room, currently used as a library, with access to the south-facing garden, as well as a separate parents’ retreat with bathroom, complete the ground floor. Three further rooms in the attic could serve as children’s rooms, office or guest area and could be expanded further by adding dormers. A second bathroom and connections for an additional kitchen are available—the floor plan offers scope for flexible design. In the basement there are also two comfortably finished rooms for hobbies or a home office. Additional utility space in the basement as well as two garages provide storage and parking. The beautiful timber-frame house with Scandinavian flair was remodeled in 2019 with an architect: a wall was opened up and triple glazing for windows and doors was continued. Future owners could use their expertise on the house to plan modernization or conversion measures.

The neighborhood is relaxed—French, Danish, international—children meet to play or study and attend the local schools. Leisure options, clubs, a large REWE supermarket, doctors, pharmacy, bakery, bus lines to the train station in Bad Homburg or to Oberursel, and quick access to the A661—this residential area is the perfect place for convenient everyday living between Frankfurt city center, international flair and the sheltered Taunus atmosphere.
