Nessuna Commissione: Storico, Splendido Complesso A Graticcio Con Lotto Edificabile In...

The historic farmstead was built in 1668 by the Henke family. As the second-oldest surviving half-timbered building in the city, it holds exceptional historical value and continues to shape the town’s character to this day.

Over the course of four years, from 2017 to 2020, the listed, but dilapidated two-post half-timbered house was comprehensively restored and renovated by its current owners with great care, precision craftsmanship, and in close consultation with the historic preservation authorities, saving the 350-year-old building from decay with a great deal of sensitivity and historical understanding. The focus was on preserving the building’s historic structure and characteristic architectural details while carefully incorporating contemporary elements. The result is a harmonious blend of historical heritage and modern living comfort, complemented by a cohesive garden design featuring a spacious natural swimming pond, elaborate, classic paving in the courtyard area, and a separate terrace with a fire pit.

The spacious lot, covering an area of approximately 2,000 m², along with the living area of about 483 m², offers a wide range of possibilities for use and individual design. Despite its very central location in the heart of Großburgwedel, the property exudes a remarkable sense of tranquility. A tastefully designed outbuilding, a double carport, and a workshop/garage effectively shield the property from street noise and prying eyes, creating a private retreat that is barely visible from the outside. Currently, the living space is divided among three self-contained residential units, which could, however, be combined with minimal effort.

As an option with this listing, the neighboring property, measuring approximately 1,000 m², is available for purchase. This property also features a historic residential building with a separate access road, approximately 232 m² of living space—currently divided into two apartments—an additional garage/workshop building, and the potential for further development of the lot.

With its classic features of a traditional half-timbered house, its authentic historic charm, and its special atmosphere, this property offers a rare opportunity to live in a piece of living history within an exclusive setting.
