Authentic Hessian farmhouse with lots of privacy

This charming farmstead from the 18th and 19th centuries is located in the old village center of Oberdorfelden.
The residential building and the adjoining stables and sheds together with the barn form a self-contained, listed ensemble with privacy.

You enter the property via the courtyard gate and reach the mezzanine floor via an external staircase.
The first floor houses the checkroom and an adjoining toilet, the kitchen, the dining room and a utility room.
A restored oak staircase dating from the period leads to the upper floor. Here there are 3 rooms, each measuring a good 20m², as well as the spacious bathroom with shower and bathtub. If you look up from the hallway over the built-in bookshelf that extends into the attic, you can already see under the gable. Next to the bookshelf is a modern wooden staircase that leads up to the roof, where a large room (floor area approx. 90m²) with open roof beams and adjoining shower room presents itself.

The house was extensively renovated in 2006. As part of the renovation, high-quality materials were used (oak floorboards in almost the entire house, brand-name sanitary products in the bathrooms and toilet) and building biology materials were used (clay, lime, travertine, wood). The electrics were renewed.
The renovation was carried out with great sensitivity and attention to detail and the original character of the ensemble was preserved as far as possible. In the entrance area, the historic tiles immediately catch the eye, in several rooms there are old, refurbished doors, further highlights are the wooden staircase to the 1st floor, individual exposed load-bearing ceiling beams and half-timbered beams (in the bathroom, for example, the old half-timbered beams of the original 2 rooms serve as an optical room divider), in 2 rooms on the upper floor there are original Frankfurt floorboards (softwood) from the 19th century. The spacious attic was converted into an energy-efficient living space as part of this renovation.

Modernizations were also carried out continuously in the following years, e.g. the installation of an efficient Buderus condensing boiler including solar thermal energy and a large buffer storage tank at the end of 2016, the Frankfurt floorboards were refurbished, a terrace was built in the courtyard and the courtyard lighting was extended.

The original 18th century house was extended to an L-shape in the 19th century, this more recent part ("annex") extends above the large courtyard gate and is accessible both from the main house and via a staircase via a side entrance. Here are 2 of the 3 rooms on the upper floor as well as 2 storage rooms and access to a cellar room.
The main house also has a cellar (vaulted cellar) with an open, dry clay floor; the boiler room is also located here.

The property offers many possibilities for the realization of your own ideas or you can simply enjoy the unique atmosphere, which reflects the historical flair of the last centuries despite all the amenities.

The property is located in the quiet old town center of the Schönecker district Oberdorfelden, with 2 minutes walk to the meadows of the Nidderauen and fields.
