Flat to rent 6+1 • 290 m² without real estate, Baden-Württemberg

Wearing like in your own house: Large maisonette apartment with a generous garden area, garage, and parking space.

This property, created by an architect for himself and his family, stands out from the usual sameness due to its idiosyncratic yet skillfully executed architecture. Under a mighty gabled roof visually divided into two halves by a continuous glass band, you will find a living space whose atmosphere captivates everyone.

Built in 1978/79 on a 1,006 m² plot, the basic architectural concept is based on a wooden post-and-beam construction, with the laminated timber beams consciously left visible throughout the house. Wherever possible, bioclimatic building measures were used throughout the house. The high standards of the architecture continue in a fitting equipment that leaves nothing to be desired even for the most demanding tastes. Among the many details, the following are noteworthy:

Travertine flooring throughout the ground floor (underfloor heating) and also in the basement. An open sandstone fireplace, some sanitary rooms finished with Carrara marble and fitted furniture, a high-quality fitted kitchen by Plana with all electrical appliances, numerous custom built-ins, Hewi fittings on the doors, etc. In the outdoor area: several terraces, a secluded outdoor whirlpool, and a garden area laid out with valuable ornamental shrubs featuring a large wetland area, crossed by a boardwalk. All these areas are not visible from outside.

On the south side of the roof is a solar system with a capacity of 10 kWp, and the building’s hot water and heating are supplied by a heat pump with geothermal probes. This results in heating and hot water costs of under €100 per month and total additional costs of about €1 per m²!

Only 12 km as the crow flies from Stuttgart’s Schlossplatz, the municipality of Aichwald is situated on a hill above the Remstal at an elevation of 470 m and has developed into an exclusive residential area in recent years. The proximity to the big city combined with a life immersed in nature – which, especially in our time, is of great importance – come together ideally here:

The house is surrounded by fields, orchards, forests, and vineyards, and a large equestrian center is only 800 m away. Yet, Stuttgart and the nearby district towns of Esslingen and Waiblingen are quickly reachable. There are good bus connections to all kindergartens and schools up to high school. An S-Bahn station is located in both Esslingen and Weinstadt-Endersbach.

Belonging to the main apartment is a bedroom/fireplace room with an open sandstone fireplace (connected to the ground floor by a gallery) of 60 m², a window front with access to the west terrace (DIN 1/4) of 3.0 m² with an outdoor whirlpool. The main bathroom/wellness area (Carrara marble floor and full height tiled ceilings) is 25.6 m², featuring a Klaf sauna, a walk-in shower (1.4 m x 1.2 m) with a Grohe shower column, and a granite washbasin unit (170 x 76 cm) with 2 sinks, an under-counter cabinet, and 2 side cabinets.

On the ground floor there is an open-plan kitchen with dining room of 49 m² (separable by a sliding door), a living room of 48 m², and a piano room of 15.3 m² (also separable by a sliding door), a utility room of 10.8 m², a utility terrace (DIN 1/4) of 3.0 m², a hall/cloakroom of 13.0 m², a room of 16.3 m², another room of 16.6 m², a corridor of 2.3 m², a small bathroom of 4.4 m², a conservatory of 20 m², a guest WC of 1.5 m², and a terrace of 56 m².
