Renovate Or Build New – Property And 1,532 M² Plot

Ample space for new ideas at Bergstrasse 34 in Safnern
In an elevated location in Safnern in the Bernese Seeland, a unique opportunity opens up for visionary individuals. Bergstrasse connects a quiet residential environment with short distances to essential daily amenities. Primary school, shopping facilities, restaurants, and public transport are within close proximity. At the same time, the location impresses with its sunny orientation and wide views over Safnern and the surrounding landscape.
Allow me to introduce myself: a 6.5-room single-family house from 1967, which today primarily offers one thing: ample space for new ideas. My existing substance, my location, and the generous plot open up interesting perspectives for buyers who are not looking for a classic turnkey property but wish to further develop a site according to their own ideas.
My existing space is distributed over the ground and basement floors. On the ground floor, you will find an exceptionally spacious living area with large windows, direct access to the outdoor space, and a striking fireplace. A separate kitchen with an adjoining dining area, several bedrooms, as well as a bathroom and separate toilet complete the space. Balcony and terrace create additional connections to the outside. In total, I have 6.5 rooms, five bedrooms, one bathroom, and two toilets.
My interiors visibly carry the character of my time of origin. Much wood, open spatial effects, and generous window areas particularly characterize the living area. The kitchen and wet rooms correspond to an older standard of development, and therein lies the opportunity to reinterpret existing structures and create an individual living concept.
My basement also offers various living, working, storage, and ancillary rooms, providing additional usage possibilities and creating an interesting basis for a comprehensive redesign.
My outdoor area is particularly distinctive. The expansive garden areas, the elevated hillside location, and the beautiful distant view over the surroundings give the property a special character and open up exciting possibilities for future design.
Renovate or develop anew?
This is where my greatest potential lies: On one hand, it can be examined whether my existing 6.5-room house should be extensively renovated and adapted to today’s living requirements.
On the other hand, there is the possibility to consider a demolition and subsequent new construction. The two fully developed plots No. 576 and 623 together comprise 1,532 m² and are located in the residential zone W2 according to the existing documentation.
The building law framework conditions open up various conceivable residential concepts. The existing documentation mentions, for example, a single-family house, duplex, row or terrace houses, as well as smaller multi-family houses. The concrete feasibility of a future project must be examined based on the applicable regulations and possibly with the relevant authorities.
