Historic Half Timbered House With Exceptional Charm

THE PROPERTY
This individually listed historic half-timbered house, believed to date back to between 1610 and 1620, combines centuries-old architecture with a versatile layout extending across three floors. An extension added in 1980 complements the original structure. Exposed timber beams, individually shaped rooms and varying ceiling heights give the property its distinctive character.

The thoughtfully landscaped entrance, with its flowerbeds and water feature, immediately conveys the charm of this historic home. On the ground floor, a spacious entrance hall leads to a generously proportioned living room, where exposed historic timber framing, numerous windows and direct access to the sheltered outdoor area create an inviting atmosphere. The adjoining fitted kitchen reflects the original character of the house. An enclosed terrace with a further water feature provides a private outdoor retreat and offers a second entrance to the property. A private parking space could be made accessible with minor structural alterations. A guest WC and storage room complete this floor.

The first floor comprises four individually configured rooms, offering flexibility for use as bedrooms, children’s rooms, guest accommodation or home offices. The bathroom features a shower with additional comfort functions and a bathtub with whirlpool functionality.

A particular highlight is the top floor, with its spacious studio beneath the exposed historic roof structure. Original timber beams and the impressive ceiling height extending to the roof ridge create a truly distinctive atmosphere. An integrated kitchenette, a separate shower room and an additional bedroom allow this level to be used largely independently, whether as guest accommodation, an artist’s studio or a private retreat.

Whether for family living, multiple generations or a combination of residential and professional use, this historic half-timbered house offers remarkable versatility within a setting whose distinctive character has evolved over centuries.

ENERGY PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATE
An energy performance certificate is not required, as the property is a listed historic building.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

From a legal perspective, the property is therefore being sold as condominium ownership (Wohnungseigentum) rather than as a house on a separately owned freehold plot.

The buyer’s commission amounts to 2.975% of the purchase price, including VAT, and is payable upon conclusion of the notarised purchase agreement.
