Commercial property for sale • 7500 m² without real estate, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern

One of the largest, most beautiful, and best-preserved estate complexes in the country;

10 main and ancillary buildings plus 4.8 hectares of private land located near the Müritz (Europe’s largest lake district) are available here for partial use:

The “BLÜCHERHOF” in the municipality of Klocksin, in the heart of the Mecklenburg lake district—not far from the hilly area known as Mecklenburg Switzerland—with three separate land parcels, each permitting residential and commercial use as well as “camping/mobile living” on a wooded lakeside lot (2.4 ha.) and gardening activities.

The property is ideally suited by virtue of its size, location, and spatial layout for uses such as:

• Corporate representation (office/administration/manufacturing/showroom/warehouse/distribution)

• Preferably for private living (including studios, apartments, and lofts)

• As a spa hotel/castle hotel or guesthouse (with 10 tastefully and modernly furnished guest rooms = apartments/holiday flats)

• For assisted living/hospice, with peripheral service providers such as doctors’ practices, sauna, and wellness areas

• For gastronomic establishments such as café/bistro, restaurant, (pub/club), catering/kitchen for “food on wheels”

• As a “cultural venue”—a seminar and event center for open‑air events and cultural programs of all kinds (gallery/museum/art school/ateliers, etc.)

• Also for concerts and live events, for instance with up to 6,000 visitors in the spacious inner courtyard of the estate, combined with adjacent, easily accessible halls and circulation areas.

It is also worth mentioning the attractively designed festivity hall in the former estate manager’s house, featuring wooden parquet and arranged in a historic ambience, where seating for approximately 80 guests is available for (dance) events—but which can also accommodate 200 people...

Even more space is provided by the halls of the “Ackerpferdehaus” located opposite the estate, with ground-level access from the courtyard and outside area, as well as by the largest event and assembly hall in the entire region located in the building’s attic! (with a total of approximately 10,000 cubic meters of converted space…)

A small highlight in terms of gastronomic and tourist offerings is the “Dubenhus” (Pigeon House), a two-story, timber-framed building used and furnished as a café/bistro in the inner courtyard of this unique complex.

Depending on the season and demand, horse-drawn carriages (fiakers) are available here to take guests to nearby lakes and attractions.

Among these are, for example, the castles Vollrathsruhe and Zettemin, Schlosshotel Schorssow near Malchiner See, Burg Schlitz (a castle hotel in a neighboring ridge), as well as the Basedow estate with its gastronomic and tourism offerings, and Schloss Kummerow in the town of Kummerow—which is home to one of Germany’s leading private photography museums, with a Lenné park right by the Kummerower See.

Also to be noted are Kloster Dargun, Haus Demmin (a 700‑year‑old fortress at the confluence of the Tollense and Peene rivers), Burg Klempenow (the oldest timber-framed house in the country, now hosting a cultural program, right on the River T.), and—near the estate—the water castle Ulrichshusen, a stunning ensemble with an estate village, water castle, park, lake, and a large “concert barn” inaugurated in 1999 by Sir Yehudi Menuhin!

10 buildings of various characters, sizes, and architectural styles

(plus 3 plots of land, including one by a lake)

allow for the following uses:

1) Estate Manager’s House: A three-part building finished with white exterior plaster, spread over 3 floors with approximately 1,500 m² of living and usable space. It includes a large event hall, office areas, 12 units for private living, a guesthouse (with modern, fully equipped apartments/holiday flats), as well as an area for sauna and wellness in the basement and additional common areas such as staircases, corridors, sanitary facilities (plus cloakrooms, a cold storage, and storage rooms).

6) Die Stellmacherei:

Another former outbuilding of the estate complex is located directly adjacent to the outer wall of the park (8 hectares, one of the most beautiful dendrological parks in Germany). Here, on approximately 1,250 m² of usable space at ground level, accessed by gabled doors and gates, are high and bright rooms that can be used for all types of space-demanding trades—whether in the industrial/technical or freelance sector. Whether private living is permitted here must be clarified with the responsible building authority; however, in the immediate vicinity, there are purely residential buildings (one of which might possibly be available for additional purchase).

Notable construction features include: fieldstone walls, good overall condition, a very quiet location, direct access to the estate’s inner courtyard, one small annex, and dry rooms and usable spaces.

7 – 10) Four further ancillary buildings are located on the plots situated on the exterior of the estate. These include one former residential house, one large shed, and two smaller sheds that were used for agricultural equipment as well as for other storage purposes.

During the summer season of 2023, as part of the Blücherhof concert series (= 9 events with several thousand participants), the meadows and pasture areas on the property were used as parking lots.

Whether deconstructing one of the sheds and upgrading the other building—for example, as additional living space for co-residents, staff, or co-organizers of the estate’s cultural program—is advisable will require further consideration and planning…

11) A small natural plot of land located in the neighborhood, with around 1,000 m², invites use as a garden or pasture area.

12) A special feature of the entire ensemble is the approximately 2.4-hectare natural plot with woodland, located directly at the “Tiefer See” (Deep Lake) opposite the estate.

Depending on the usage concept for the estate, the features of a somewhat secluded location, good accessibility via its own approach, existing tree cover, a small sandy beach/water access, and the sheer size of this large natural area could, for example, be used as a space for “mobile living” (possibly by applying for designated pitches for tipis, tiny houses, converted barns, and yurts) or as a camp/tent site for youth, as well as supplementary parking for guests attending cultural events, concerts, etc.

13) Last, but not least!

(Modern training center / co‑working space / car‑sharing station +++ ?!)

Another opportunity to turn this unique and generously laid‑out property into a completely distinctive ensemble tailored to your own wishes and needs for living, working, and residing is the possibility to erect a NEW BUILDING—on the grounds of the former estate, more precisely on the foundations of a burnt-out large stable building—with several hundred square meters of floor area.

Preliminary inquiries with the responsible building authority suggest that the construction of a building with an exceptionally modern exterior—perhaps a glass cube with partial wooden segments or colored façade elements, possibly with a flat roof, observation platform, or surrounding terrace—is conceivable. This would contrast with the adjacent historic structure while simultaneously impressing with state‑of‑the‑art IT and event technology and a distinctive architectural appearance.

A larger number of additional floor plans, façade designs, and building sections are available upon request!

INFRASTRUCTURE / TRANSPORT CONNECTIONS / SHOPPING / DOCTORS / SCHOOLS, etc.:

• The property is ideally located in the “triangle” between the Müritz, Malchiner See, and Kummerower See (the eighth‑largest lake in Germany = Mecklenburg Lake District).

2) Storage Building: A brick‑faced building with its principal section finished in white cast plaster, spanning 4 floors with a total of 1,200 m² of usable space. It still contains some period and more recent installations (grain mill, grain silos, etc.), is in good overall condition, and features a massive wooden/stud framework, intact beam ceilings, and load‑bearing intermediate floors.

Its original rural ambience offers the possibility of integrating uses ranging from a biker hostel, hay barn, atelier, and gallery to various freelance/self‑employed functions spread over 3 to 4 floors with differing ceiling heights (from 2.50 to 4.50 m).

The building is topped with a gabled roof and an old crane gate, offers several passageways to the adjacent Marstall (equestrian stable), and through wide wooden gates, free access to the estate’s inner courtyard or the café house located opposite it.

3) Marstall: One of the most spacious and elaborately designed historic horse stables in the region; a large, central gate provides access to a bright, high foyer, followed laterally by a smaller stable block or saddle chamber, and in the rear of the building, an uninterrupted large open space that once constituted the main part of the stable.

Side passages connect to the storage building, and a staircase leads to the large, open attic (where newer structural reinforcements and a completely renewed roof covering—including an illuminated clock tower—are evident), underscoring the special character of this property in the style of high Baroque.

An artist (a professor from a well-known art university) held summer seminars, painting courses, and exhibitions in the attic for decades.

4) “Dubenhus” (Pigeon House): A two‑story, square timber‑framed building with a fieldstone base, located in the inner courtyard of the estate.

This structure provides a small island for taking a break within the large historic ensemble. Anyone in need of a pause from work or desiring friendly company (be it from co‑residents, house visitors, or passing day guests) can relax here in the courtyard, near the estate’s small pond.

The building is equipped with all technical facilities (of high quality and recent installation) necessary for operation as a café/bistro.

Important: As an additional option for catering in inclement weather, an adjacent ground‑floor room of the storage building offers enclosed space, supplemented by storage and cooling capacities.

In its previous operation, depending on the season and demand, a horse‑drawn carriage was available on the premises next to the “Dubenhus” to transport vacation guests to the nearby lakes and attractions of the Müritz region.

5) The “Ackerpferdehaus”: This term hardly does justice to the auxiliary building of the estate, which boasts numerous constructional and functional features on its own. Built of fieldstone masonry with a massive foundation, its external dimensions are approximately [xx m L. x xx m W.] with a height of nearly [xx m], yielding a total of about 10,000 cubic meters of converted space on 2 open interior levels. Once used for agricultural purposes, its sheer scale overshadows that of many manor houses.

Inside, the generously partitioned and relatively unmodified interior spaces have hosted various functions such as offices, guest rooms, workshops, storage areas, production halls, a large “Tenne” (a passage with large frontal wooden doors), as well as corridors, staircases, and ancillary spaces.

Also noteworthy is the planned use of the ground floor as a cultural and event space, along with the enormous, non‑fitted attic—featuring a stable supporting structure—that could well become one of the region’s largest assembly and event spaces of its kind.

• There is also a main ridge and high spur of the hill range “Mecklenburg Switzerland” (a recreational area, forested, near lakes, with cycling, riding, and hiking trails).

• Train connections are provided by the “Nordostbahn” operating 7 days a week at hourly intervals with a regional express. These services are usable with an “MV or BB Ticket” priced at €23 towards Hanseatic cities/coastal areas, Berlin/Brandenburg, Stettin/Poland, and the islands of Rügen and Usedom, as well as towards Hamburg, Stettin, and Lübeck.

Nearest train stations: Teterow (regional train with hourly connections to Hamburg and Berlin) or Waren/Müritz with ICE connections (approximately 1¼ hours to Berlin or ½ hour towards the Baltic coast (Rostock/Warnemünde)).

• In Waren and Teterow, you will also find the nearest shopping opportunities: 14 grocery stores, 3 shopping centers with pharmacies, 7 DIY stores, fashion outlets, doctors, physiotherapy centers, several service stations, around 15 auto repair shops, 18 schools, multiple kindergartens, bank branches, specialty shops, and other typical infrastructural facilities characterizing these central towns.

• A larger, renowned county hospital, supplemented by three “doctor houses,” is located in the Hanseatic town of Demmin, with additional partly private specialist clinics in nearby Waren or near Teterow.

• The next neighboring medium‑sized town—a center with an attractive old town, cultural program, medieval city walls, a large shopping center, 4 DIY stores, 4 furniture stores, gastronomy/tourism, the beautifully situated, nature‑rich Tollense Lake, and a transportation‑friendly location (a railway hub between Berlin, the Baltic coast, Hamburg, and Stettin/Poland)—is located about 50 km away in Neubrandenburg.
