House for sale • 450 m² without real estate, Baden-Württemberg

This representative villa is situated on a park-like property of approximately 5,000 m² and offers a variety of usage options. In addition to the main living area of around 340 m², the property also includes a separate bungalow extension with about 110 m² of living space, which is ideal as an in-law apartment, guest house, or office. The approximately 5,000 m² property presents an extraordinary, partly Mediterranean garden landscape with a high degree of privacy. It provides a unique residential atmosphere that invites musical expression and creativity, making it perfect for celebrations and indoor/outdoor parties. Follow in the footsteps of factory owners, writers, academics, and musicians. Living, wellness, nature, entertaining, and vacationing at home – these are the characteristics of this property.

A particular highlight is the presence of two additional building plots on the property, which offer further development potential. There is even potential for a tennis court or a tree house. The property is suitable both as a representative family residence and as an investment opportunity. The attached bungalow is currently set up as a holiday apartment ("Riverside Bungalow" on Airbnb).

Large window surfaces ensure bright rooms with a beautiful view of the garden and the valley. Additionally, this country house has been ideally oriented with respect to the cardinal directions.

The estate features a central living area with a spacious, open-plan living/dining area with high ceilings. From here there are direct accesses to the terrace and the park-like garden, as well as to the cinema/study. The kitchen and game/music room adjoin this area. On the ground floor, there is the entrance hall, a guest WC, and a somewhat separated guest room with its own bathroom. Between the main house and the bungalow extension is the indoor spa area.

Upstairs, there are several bedrooms, children’s rooms as well as dressing rooms and bathrooms. The layout has been modernized, almost all the utilities (water and electricity) have been renewed, and the second floor was extended about 10 years ago, offering plenty of space for families or customized living concepts. The current holiday apartment was once the “children’s wing” for three children and a nanny. Today, it has a separate terrace and whirlpool.

Front side: Approximately 350 m² of paved, beautifully landscaped courtyard (designed by a landscape architect), a large double garage with a second level. On the right side: lawn, terrace (partially covered), awnings, an old layered hawthorn hedge, in the background two beautiful old beeches and trees, rhododendrons, a pond, garden building, aviary, sunken trampoline, and a children’s play area.

Behind the house: Additional terraces, views, a walnut tree, garden path, another shed, pump house, an outdoor pool measuring 11 x 6 m with a giant slide, cypresses, a changing cabin, outdoor shower, outdoor sauna, and outdoor parking for the bungalow.

The separate extension with approximately 110 m² of living space features its own entrance and can be used as an independent residential unit. It is ideal for multigenerational living, guests, or rental purposes.

Location, Location, Location+:

The spacious former factory owner’s villa impresses with its representative architecture (by the well-known architect Rambald von Steinbüchel-Rheinwall) as well as its unique location. The factory owners once secured the most beautiful building plot in the area in a little-developed region. The view is unobstructed over the valley and towards Eberstein Castle. The villa offers a great deal of privacy, surrounded by unspoiled nature, a small municipal nursery, and a horse paddock across the street. On the valley side flows the river, but at a safe distance. In winter, the water is reflected below and in summer everything is lush and green.

Additionally, the villa is within walking distance to the train station (Karlsruhe S-Bahn connection, etc.), schools, supermarkets, cinema, post office, and yet remains very peaceful.

Especially attractive are the two additional building plots – one at each end, separated from the villa – which offer a rare development potential in this location, for example for additional residential buildings or as a long-term investment. An alternative division of the plots is also conceivable or could be developed. Properties of this size and with comparable development potential are virtually never available in this area.

There is no strictly fixed development plan for this property (mixed-use area).

It’s a stone’s throw from Baden-Baden or Karlsruhe—and practical, affordable, and safe.
