Commercial property for sale • 3300 m² without real estateFischerhof 1, , Lower Saxony

Nestled in the heart of Uelzen Municipal Forest, surrounded by mature trees and situated directly beside the idyllic Fischerhof ponds, this property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious real estate complex, part of which is listed as a historic monument, offering a variety of potential uses. Further information is available from the Hanseatic City of Uelzen: Ms Schuckenbrock (tel. +49 581 800-6315, email: alexandra.schuckenbrock(at)stadt.uelzen.de) or Ms Schlünzen (tel. +49 581 800-6320, email: imke.schluenzen(at)stadt.uelzen.de).

The property was most recently operated as a youth hostel until October 2025 and has a long history of different uses. In addition to serving as a youth hostel, the property was previously used as a retirement home and a restaurant, among other purposes.

With a plot of approximately 13,950 m² and a total usable floor area of around 3,332 m², the property offers ideal conditions for investors, operators and project developers seeking an exceptional property in a natural setting.

The property occupies an attractive location on the outskirts of Uelzen. Fischerhof is nestled within Uelzen Municipal Forest and is distinguished by its quiet, natural surroundings. At the same time, the nearby “Am Funkturm” commercial area and the B4 federal highway, providing connections to Lüneburg, Hamburg, Celle and Hanover, lie to the east and can be reached by car in approximately three minutes. Access to the site is via a listed railway bridge, the clearance width of which cannot be altered.

The adjacent ponds, forest paths and green spaces create an exceptional environment offering a high quality of stay, while Uelzen town centre can be reached in just a few minutes. Shopping facilities, restaurants, services, medical care and Uelzen’s nationally renowned Hundertwasser railway station are all within easy reach.

This combination of a natural setting and good accessibility makes the property particularly attractive for a wide range of potential uses.

The listed historic building gives the property its distinctive character. In addition to accommodation and communal areas, it contains a separate apartment that could be used by the operator, caretaker or staff, for example. The large kitchen and dining hall are also located there. The building was constructed as an inn in 1937, although a restaurant had already existed on the site in the 19th and early 20th centuries and was a popular excursion destination for the people of Uelzen. This tradition was reflected in the dark-brick façade and the entrance designed in the style typical of the period. The preservation of the former Fischerhof inn in Uelzen is considered to be in the public interest for historical reasons.
