Renovation and modernization measures on the existing building have been carried out continuously; approximately at the end of the ‘90s, a generous expansion of the living space was achieved by converting the massive slate-wall barn.

Steel-reinforced concrete ceilings with underfloor heating were installed.

A wide, inviting curved staircase leads to a gallery and a spacious living area, including a sandstone fireplace. In 2021, among other enhancements, an energy retrofit was implemented: a powerful air-source heat pump replaced the existing oil heating system. In connection with this, various electrical lines were re-laid and a wall box was installed. A complete renovation of the shower/WC was carried out, and a new entrance portal was designed and built.

You enter the house—which appears rather unassuming from the outside—and find yourself in a spacious entrance area, framed by an attractively designed dropped ceiling. The room opens up vertically with the elegant staircase featuring fine wooden steps, offering interesting views and sightlines within the home. To the left is a very spacious family bathroom with a bathtub, two washbasins, a shower, and a WC separated by a privacy partition.

Behind the large staircase, there is a guest room. To the right, you enter the “old” part of the house—that is, the former farmhouse with a small living room, kitchen, and various storage rooms. Attached to these rooms is a wooden staircase from the founding era that leads to the upper floor, where the parents’ bedroom and the children’s bedroom are located. These rooms are separated by a corridor and the newly renovated shower/WC.

The children’s rooms are also new, and a sliding door has been installed to create a connection between them. Via the second corridor (formerly a hay loft above the dropped ceiling), you reach the gallery, which is currently used as a library. From there, you enter the spacious living room with its majestic sandstone fireplace. Through this large room, you can access the outdoor area through a large sliding-window element.

The gem of the property—besides the partly covered terrace—is the low-maintenance garden. The plants established there support each other’s growth and typically bloom from March to October. The expansive outdoor area offers not only peace and seclusion but also plenty of room to pursue your hobbies and interests.

At the rear of the house there is also a shed where all necessary garden tools or similar items can be stored safely and dry.

The old slate walls are visible in the interior of the living area with their characteristic texture, and have been expertly showcased with white plaster.

Another major plus: the plot can be subdivided, thereby creating an additional building lot.

The house is available partially furnished upon request, and several garden devices, tools, as well as some high-quality, massive antique cabinets and a living set, are included in the purchase price.

Although Gornhausen is a small town with approximately 220 inhabitants, it impresses with a functioning and highly active village community. Thanks to the thriving club scene, residents benefit from a year-round program of cultural events. Furthermore, it is worth mentioning that the affluent municipality (with wind energy) provides several incentives for its citizens. For example, property tax is completely waived, and investments in energy-efficient living are generously subsidized. In particular, young families receive genuine support here through the coverage of lunch, transport, and childcare costs for kindergarten and/or primary school.

The village is idyllically nestled between the Moselle and the Hunsrück and experiences no through traffic.

A fitted kitchen is available.

Some garden and technical equipment, as well as partly high-quality, massive antique cabinets and a living area, are included in the purchase price upon request.
