The striking architecture of this listed thatched building is typical of this sought-after residential area just outside Hamburg. The heritage property embodies timeless beauty, convincingly combining traditional 19th-century craftsmanship with all the energy-efficient conveniences of a state-of-the-art home.

The almost unbeatable combination of rural tranquillity and an urban lifestyle makes this property truly unique. Depending on your mood, you can either relax and enjoy country life or—just a stone’s throw away—experience the attractions and many amenities of Germany’s most beautiful city.

A home not for everyone, but for the discerning tenant who appreciates something truly special.

The Altes Land region on the outskirts of Hamburg is undoubtedly one of Germany’s most beautiful areas. Europe’s largest contiguous fruit-growing region stretches along the banks of the Elbe. Here, idyllic natural surroundings are part of everyday life.

Surrounded by picturesque villages and historic timber-framed houses, you can enjoy a uniquely beautiful landscape with numerous dykes, rivers and canals.

The municipality of Hollern-Twielenfleth lies directly on the Elbe, approximately 30 kilometres west of Hamburg, and can be reached quickly and easily both by motorway and public transport.

The Hanseatic city of Stade, with just under 50,000 inhabitants, enchants visitors with its historic old town, characterised mainly by 17th-century timber-framed houses.

At the same time, Stade is home to a thriving high-tech industry. In addition to AIRBUS, numerous companies in the lightweight engineering and chemical sectors have established themselves in the region.

Good to know:

The A26 federal motorway, which is still under construction, and the B73 federal road can be reached via the Stade-Ost junction, approximately 6.5 km away.

Once fully completed, the A26 will run from the planned A20/A26 “Kehdingen” interchange near Drochtersen in Lower Saxony to the planned motorway junction with the A1 in Hamburg. The B73 federal road provides a direct connection from Cuxhaven to Hamburg-Harburg.

Be the first to move in following the complete renovation!

Following its renovation, this thatched gem meets the KfW efficiency standard for listed buildings and falls within the EE renewable-energy category.

Thanks to a heat pump and solar panels, energy costs are kept low.

The listed, gable-fronted timber-framed building, featuring brick infill beneath a thatched gable roof—with a hipped section at the service gable—was built around 1850. It is distinguished by its remarkably uniform timber framing with nearly square panels. The historic building is visually striking thanks to its preserved original character, which remains clearly recognisable.

The generously proportioned gallery apartment is accessed on the ground floor via its own private entrance. Designed as a “house within a house”, it has a private staircase leading to the first floor. There, a lounge in the entrance area provides access to the living space.

The highlight is the open gallery area, which gives the apartment a unique sense of spacious, open-plan living.

This architectural gem is equipped with a modern fitted kitchen, including appliances, and has two bathrooms.
