House for sale 3+1 • 50 m² without real estateSchlossstrasse 22, , Baden-Württemberg

This small house is not a cookie-cutter property. It is a home for people who appreciate manageable living, their own retreat, and that special something.

The house is ideally suited for one or two people who consciously want to forgo large living areas. Instead of a typical condominium, you get your very own little house with its own plot of land and privacy – combined with the freedom to further develop it according to your own ideas.

It is also an interesting alternative for those who are enthusiastic about “Tiny Living” and minimalist lifestyles, offering a contrast to the classic tiny house: not a newly invented living concept, but a genuine, evolved little house with history and character.

One distinctive feature is the exceptionally massive, thick walls of the house. According to local legend, the building was partially constructed from stones taken from the castle ruin situated above. This ties the history of the house directly to its unique location on the Schlossberg – a connection that is still palpable in its construction today.

The most important renovation work has already been carried out. The house is currently unoccupied and can be taken over without any existing rental agreement. At the same time, it still offers plenty of opportunities to incorporate your own ideas and to develop it further, both technically and stylistically.

Its particular strength lies in the combination of a compact size, its own plot of land, tranquility, historic construction, and an extraordinary location. Those who value individual living with character will find here a property that refreshingly differs from the ordinary.

The house is situated in a romantic south-facing hillside setting on the Schlossberg of Bopfingen – quiet, sunny, and with a very special flair. The evolved building fabric, the narrow Schlossstraße winding its way up the slope, and the proximity to the castle ruin above give the location an almost Southern European character.

Thanks to the elevated position, there is a fantastic view over the surroundings. At the same time, you enjoy the quiet of a cul-de-sac: above the house, the road leads only two more houses further in the direction of the castle ruin.

Particularly attractive is the combination of tranquility and proximity to the town. Despite the idyllic hillside location, Bopfingen’s infrastructure is quickly within reach. Shops and daily necessities are in the nearby vicinity – much can be found within about a one-kilometer radius. The Bopfingen train station is also only roughly one kilometer away, ensuring good access to public transport. Thus, the location blends unique living on the Schlossberg with short distances and good everyday accessibility.

The area also offers plenty when it comes to leisure and recreation: the castle ruin and the surrounding landscape practically lie at your doorstep, inviting you to take walks and enjoy little respites right from the house.

Schlossstraße itself is narrow and, due to the hillside, correspondingly steep – a feature that greatly contributes to its original and almost Mediterranean character. There is no private parking space directly at the house. Public parking is available about 50 meters uphill; however, no fixed parking spot is allocated there.

This is a unique location for those who appreciate views, tranquility, and a historically evolved flair, while still not wanting to forgo proximity to urban infrastructure.

The house combines historic construction and preserved original elements with significant modernizations that have been carried out in recent years.

Around 16 years ago, the roof was newly covered. During the same period, the electrical installation was renewed and the bathroom was refurbished. About ten years ago, the house also received a fresh coat of exterior paint.

It is particularly pleasing that the original character of the house was preserved during these modernizations. The original floors and the staircase have been maintained and are in good condition. Together with the exceptionally thick walls, they underscore the building’s unique character and history.

Currently, the house is heated by a centrally located wood stove that can also be used as a cooker. It provides cozy warmth and fits perfectly with the home’s original character.

Due to the compact size of the house, it is also feasible to install a modern split air conditioning unit with an air-to-air heat pump, which would allow for efficient heating during winter and cooling during the summer if needed.

The terraced, south-facing hillside setting also offers excellent potential for the use of solar energy, with the roof surfaces being well-suited for a photovoltaic installation.

Another advantage is the digital infrastructure: the house has recently been connected to the fiber-optic network, and mobile phone reception at the site is excellent. This provides the property with very good prospects for home office use and mobile working.

Thus, the house combines preserved historical details and the special charm of wood heating with modern digital infrastructure and contemporary opportunities for an energy-efficient future.

The property also includes two practical outbuildings. A solidly constructed shed with its own water and electricity connections offers versatile use possibilities, such as a workshop, hobby room, or storage space.

This is complemented by an additional wooden shed that provides extra space for storage – ideal for keeping garden tools, firewood, or other items.

The house is currently unoccupied and can be taken over shortly after the purchase contract is finalized.

The sale is conducted directly by the owner and is therefore commission-free for the buyer.

Viewing appointments can be arranged individually. Given that this is a property with an extraordinary location and a very distinct character, we strongly recommend a personal visit – many of its unique features, particularly the view and the atmosphere on the Schlossberg, can only be partially conveyed in pictures.
