Room Layout

You and your family (or whoever you have envisioned for this wonderful area) will live completely undisturbed on the top floor, which spans 180 m² with a panoramic glass front and large window areas in the central studio of over 100 m². This area is ready for your choice of flooring.

In the central part of the house, fully equipped guest rooms can be found, sharing a bathroom and toilet. The rooms have been designed with a time-travel concept: the modest '60s, the James Bond of the '70s, the ethereal '80s, and a family room from the 2000s. Most of them even feature their own balcony section.

A standout area is the almost new Ewe kitchen, complete with high-quality Miele appliances, authentic Versace wallpaper, and eight lighting zones so that the star granite always sparkles.

The garden level houses two studios with their own bathrooms: one a homage to 2000s style (Garden Studio) and a Rose Studio in English style with extras like brass fittings. Each is accessed via a coded lock, allowing the guests to come and go undisturbed.

The garden at Hochwechsel, thanks to its prime location, is a favorite among residents and visitors alike: in winter, enjoy the mini wood stove with mulled wine on the sun lounger, and in summer it transforms into a panoramic breakfast terrace with a BBQ option. In the evenings, it’s the perfect setting to share stories around a campfire.
