Architect-designed house by the lake.

Nestled in a peaceful and well-maintained residential area, adjacent to a protected natural landscape, this exceptional house combines modern architecture with a high standard of living in harmony with nature. The harmonious combination of wood, glass, and steel, along with the clean architectural lines, creates a stylish yet warm living environment. Large expanses of glass open up views from the living spaces and garden, extending far over the water, and allow the interior and exterior spaces to blend seamlessly. The sense of space, natural light, proximity to the lake, and the unique tranquility of this location contribute to the house's distinctive atmosphere. The house is notable for its construction as a solid wood house, one of the highest quality forms of timber construction, which clearly distinguishes it from traditional frame construction. Combined with a modern heat pump and ecological materials, the property meets the highest energy efficiency standards as a sustainable low-energy home. The ground floor features a spacious living and dining area with ceilings approximately 2.80 meters high, which forms the heart of the house. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide ample natural light and open up the rooms, offering a generous connection to the terrace with an unobstructed view of the lake. Above the living area, an open gallery extends all the way to the sloping roof, creating an impressive ceiling height of over 5 meters. The clear sightlines and expansive view of the greenery enhance the sense of spaciousness and the close connection to nature. The open-plan designer kitchen, with its stylish stainless steel countertop, blends harmoniously into this area and serves as the central gathering point of the house. Floor-to-ceiling windows open the room onto a sheltered breakfast terrace in the courtyard. Behind the kitchen, discreetly separated by a pivoting door, are the utility room with a functional kitchenette, as well as an additional pantry, providing practical storage space and minimizing everyday distances. An office with a built-in bench offers a pleasant space for working or reading. The living space on the ground floor is further complemented by a guest room, a storage and technical room, and a modern guest bathroom with a shower. The attic features an open gallery, three spacious rooms with charming views of the lake, and two high-quality bathrooms. The master bedroom is designed as a private retreat, combining a sleeping area, an en-suite bathroom, and a walk-in closet (with a skylight) to create an exclusive space. The outdoor area is also thoughtfully designed. The property, facing southwest, offers optimal sun exposure and impressive views. Mature trees, an adjustable awning, and aluminum blinds provide pleasant shade. An automatic irrigation system using well water makes maintenance easier. The covered entrance area, with its elegant glass and steel construction, completes the architectural concept and provides a comfortable, protected access from the carport and garages directly into the house. A special highlight is the stylish garden sauna with a large glass front, which creates a seamless connection between the interior and exterior spaces and enhances the recreational value of the property. Another highlight of this property is the direct access to Lake Falkenhagen, which is located immediately in front of the property. This offers a variety of leisure activities, such as swimming, boating, or walks along the shore. This is a home for people who appreciate architecture, nature, and quality in perfect balance.
