Sunny and spacious single-family home in a quiet location.

For sale (price negotiable) is a spacious, partially modernized single-family home with 2 floors, located in Berthelsdorf, Herrnhut. It is characterized by its quiet, village-like location, away from any noise. The property size is 708 m². The house is a well-maintained prefabricated house built with a timber frame construction (Genex FH E 108 M / built in 1985) and features full insulation. It sits on a solid basement (built in 1984). A small porch serves as a protected entrance area. The usable area is approximately 250 m², and the living area is 150 m². Currently, the house offers 5 rooms, including 4 bedrooms or children's rooms. In addition, there are 2 bathrooms and a guest toilet. The kitchen and living room areas have been redesigned into an open space, which is particularly attractive for families. In an emergency, this area could be heated completely independently by the newly installed tile-burning stove (wood-burning). A large (50 m²) terrace adjoins the living room. In the basement, there is an additional apartment with its own bathroom, which can be used as a separate living unit. Three additional basement rooms (a boiler room and workshop, a storage room for wood and coal, and a laundry room, also suitable for bicycle storage) offer ample opportunities for individual use. A gas boiler (Vissmann, Vitodens 200-W), which has been regularly serviced, serves as the central heating system. However, the ground floor can also be heated by a coal-fired stove. The property has space for 2 vehicles. A well ensures an independent water supply at all times. A wood store provides enough wood for 1 to 2 winters. In addition to the existing fruit trees and shrubs, part of the garden has been creatively and naturally designed with various grasses, ground cover plants, and other vegetation (e.g., lilac). With prior agreement with the neighbor (Evangelisch Freikirchliche Gemeinde), there may be an opportunity to share the adjacent small playground. The house has been extensively renovated in recent years and is in a partially modernized condition, but is immediately habitable. It offers good and relatively inexpensive opportunities for individual renovation, especially for craftsmen and people with practical skills. The basement level has an extension of approximately 50 m² that is currently unused. This space would be ideally suited as an additional living area for rental purposes or as a holiday apartment. Thanks to the energy-saving renovations, the energy efficiency standard has been improved from H (270 kWh / m² per year) to almost E (162 kWh / m² per year). Therefore, according to the energy performance certificate, the house is considered to be well modernized. Due to its timber frame construction, the facade can be easily further insulated, and the entire house can be converted into an energy-efficient building. Renovation guidelines can be found, for example, at Schöne Energieberatung (Berlin). A renovation plan is available. The south-facing roof is ideal for installing additional solar panels. By switching the heating system to underfloor heating on the upper floor and the planned switch to underfloor heating on the ground floor, the house can be heated in the future using an energy-efficient low-temperature system (supply temperature of the gas heater). Therefore, in the future, an expansion or a complete conversion of the heating system to heat pump technology is possible. In addition to wood and coal, the energy costs are approximately 13,000 kWh per year (costs approximately 130 euros per month). In an emergency (power and gas outage), the house can be partially heated (basement + ground floor) using the self-sufficient wood and coal stoves.

The house is located in Berthelsdorf, Herrnhut, which is characterized by its peaceful, village-like setting, away from any noise.
