House for sale.

Exceptional house in a unique location, in a village within the municipality of Westhausen.
This residential house/villa borders a residential area to the east, a natural landscape to the south and west, and a forest to the north, with a large, undeveloped plot of land featuring mature trees. The view of Kapfenburg Castle is unobstructed, and you feel as though you are living in a secluded location, yet you can reach the A7 motorway exit in Westhausen in just 5 minutes by car. The villa was built in 1935 by a factory owner and is largely in its original condition; it is not a listed building. In 2007, both bathrooms and kitchens were renovated, along with parts of the electrical system. In 2008, an air-water heat pump was installed, along with new radiators. In 2017, the oil heating system was replaced with a gas condensing boiler. Therefore, both heating systems are available, and the gas boiler can be used as an additional heat source during the winter months. In 2021, the roof was completely renovated, including additional insulation, a new "Biberschwanz" tile covering, and all plumbing work was renewed. This year, the exterior facade was renovated, and the windows were painted. In 2025, all appliances in the ground floor kitchen were replaced. The building has been carefully restored, and the charm of its original construction is evident both inside and out. The exterior facade is completely intact, featuring a limestone base in the ground floor and first floor, timber framing on the upper floors, and a traditional "bitter swallow" tiled roof in the attic, complete with dormer windows. Inside, all the original Solnhofen stone slabs are present, along with parquet floors, doors, fittings, and much more. The kitchens and bathrooms have been modernized, dating from 2007/2008. On the ground floor, you enter the house through a hallway with a coat closet and a guest toilet. Adjacent to the hallway is an office/living room, and access to the kitchen and living room, which features a fireplace. Next to the kitchen is the dining room and a pantry. The library has a door leading to the west-facing terrace. From the hallway, a single staircase leads to the first floor, which comprises 5 rooms and a full bathroom. One of the rooms has a door leading to the upper west-facing terrace, offering beautiful views. From the hallway on the first floor, another single staircase leads to the attic, which includes 3 rooms, a shower room, a smaller kitchen, and an open-plan workspace. The south-facing room offers a stunning view of Kapfenburg Castle and the surrounding green landscape. The layout of the rooms, including the bathrooms and kitchens, allows for various uses, living arrangements, and office/work spaces across 312 square meters. Additionally, the basement offers 70 square meters of usable space, comprising three storage rooms, a vaulted cellar, and a utility room with storage area. One of the storage rooms has direct access to the garden. This exceptional property, situated on a hillside with views of the landscape and forests in a district of Westhausen, features four outdoor terraces and a generously sized, natural garden, offering a nature-oriented living and working environment close to the highway.
