House for sale 7+1 • 273 m² without real estate, Lower Saxony

This exceptional single-family home is located in a quiet residential area and combines modern design with the highest standards of energy efficiency and living comfort. It has a total gross floor area of 336 m² and was completed at the end of 2009 on a corner plot of 655 m² in Einbeck’s northern district. It takes less than 15 minutes on foot to reach the city center. Schools, sports facilities, shopping options, and public institutions are also within walking distance or easily accessible by public transport (with stops within approximately 300 m).

The unique building design and the well-thought-out layout make this property truly one-of-a-kind. In collaboration with an architect and structural engineer, the homeowners have realized a dream while still paying close attention to functionality and the use of high-quality materials. All interior walls of the house are plastered—with the upper floor walls being filled, sanded, and painted. The flooring consists of tiles in the wet areas and high-quality parquet and laminate in all other rooms.

The basement rooms enjoy a full story height of 2.44 m, making them fully functional living space. The basement itself has been cast with waterproof (WU) concrete and constructed as a watertight “white tank.” It is insulated with 10 cm thick Styrodur panels, ensuring a consistent, pleasant indoor climate in all basement rooms throughout the year. The basement features a bathroom with a toilet, shower cabin, and bathtub, along with three additional rooms ranging from 19 to 30 m² in floor area, a utility room with connections for a washing machine and dryer, and the heating room. All rooms—with the exception of the heating room—have at least one window, providing ample natural light.

Through the front door, you enter a small vestibule on the north side of the house, from which a guest WC can be accessed to the right. Proceeding straight ahead, you arrive in the approximately 70 m² living/dining area with an open kitchen and a water-fed fireplace stove. Behind the kitchen is a pantry with a side door leading outside. From here, you access the open wood storage shed that adjoins the west side of the building and leads to the second driveway of the property, providing the shortest route for bringing in groceries.

The living area impresses not only with its generous size but also with its ceiling height of over 5 m and a ceiling recess above the dining area that offers a view of the gallery on the upper floor. Another highlight is the wooden ceiling in the living area, featuring both direct and indirect lighting. From the dining area, you also reach the bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and an adjacent bathroom that includes a walk-in shower, toilet, and bathtub, thus ensuring that all essential living areas are conveniently located on the ground floor. This was a primary consideration during the planning phase and has been executed excellently.

An open staircase leads you, via a cast staircase adorned with high-quality granite, into the living basement, as well as via a beech wood staircase to the upper floor. From the upper landing of the wooden staircase, the open design offers views into the entire living area and partly into the open kitchen on the ground floor. The structural design of the house is such that the ceiling recess could easily be closed, which would expand the living space of approximately 60 m² by more than 10%. The floor slabs are prefabricated. On the upper floor, in addition to the open gallery, there is another room with a dropped wooden ceiling above the staircase. A wooden staircase within this room leads to an additional 6 m² of living space—suitable, for example, for a loft bed. Behind this room, there is another bathroom with a toilet and a bathtub. Additionally, a useful storage area has been created in the knee wall on the west side.

Einbeck, with 32,000 inhabitants, is the most populous town in the Northeim district in southern Lower Saxony. About 15,000 people live in the historic town center, while the remaining residents are spread over 46 districts. The nearest major cities are Göttingen to the south (approximately 30 km) and Hildesheim to the north (around 35 km). Einbeck boasts an excellent location on Bundesstraße 3, with the nearest highway, BAB7, only 13 km away. The town has a train station and is connected by the Hannover–Göttingen–Seesen–Braunschweig–Kreiensen–Altenbeken routes. With excellent infrastructure, strong economic prospects, and a high quality of life, Einbeck is an ideal location for both families and entrepreneurs.

All windows in the house are fitted with triple glazing. On the ground floor, every window is equipped with external shutters. Additionally, all rooms on the ground floor—except for the guest WC and pantry—are fitted with underfloor heating, while the remaining rooms are heated with wall-mounted radiators. The heating system is powered by an air source heat pump from MHG with an 11 kW output, supplemented by a masonry, water-fed base stove. This stove can be fueled with logs up to 45 cm in length and is equipped with a secondary chimney draft. It features an electronic combustion automation system and an automatic control mechanism. The stove has a total output of 18 kW, with 9 kW delivered directly to the environment and 9 kW transferred via the water jacket to the 1,000-liter buffer storage tank located in the basement. Additionally, a 240-liter potable water tank is installed in the basement. The building’s hot water distribution is arranged in a ring system, meaning hot water is available at all mixer taps within seconds. All electrical wiring and the cables for the in-house LAN network are exclusively installed in conduits or cable channels, which makes any future modifications or the addition of new cables both simple and straightforward. The network could also be used to control the building’s systems, and the later installation of a photovoltaic system or solar thermal system on the roof would be very easy by utilizing the existing channels.

The lovingly landscaped garden, with its modest lawn area, is oriented to the south. It can be accessed either from the living area through an approximately 35 m² hardwood terrace or via the basement entrance on the south side of the house. In summer, the terrace is scarcely visible from the footpath that runs entirely along the east side of the property. Also on the east side of the building, directly adjoining the house, is a carport with a lockable bicycle shed. In addition, there is another parking space. The driveway, parking areas, and the shed are paved. In the southern part of the garden, which is set on a slight slope, an outdoor seating area was created in 2020, where you can enjoy the evening sun. On the west side of the building, the garden leads to an approximately 20 m² equipment shed that was built in 2024, offering ample space for garden tools. This shed also houses a domestic water system. A water line has been laid to the terrace on the south side, and the rainwater retention tank was chosen to be larger than required during construction, providing over 1,500 liters of rainwater for garden irrigation. All gutters are made of copper. The property only abuts a neighboring plot to the west, while there are no immediate neighboring properties to the east and south. Since the public road runs along the northern boundary of the property, there is no obligation to clear sidewalks in winter. The garden has been designed with great care yet in a low-maintenance manner. The planted beds are partly covered with bark mulch and partly secured with water-permeable lava stones to prevent excessive weed growth, with special emphasis placed on being friendly to bees and insects. Right by the natural stone staircase from the terrace to the garden, there is a small pond with a waterfall.

The following fittings can be taken over by agreement and are not included in the purchase price: a built-in kitchen with an induction cooktop (2024), a self-cleaning oven (2024), a dishwasher, a refrigerator and freezer, a ceramic sink, an exhaust hood, various made-to-measure pleated blinds, roller shutters, lighting, and bathroom furniture.
