Historic forester's lodge/hunting lodge from the 16th century with walled park garden and outbuildings This extraordinary property looks back on a long history and combines the charm of past centuries with practical uses. The hunting lodge/forester's lodge, built in the 16th century, is nestled in a 1,754 m² well-tended green area, enclosed by a historic sandstone wall. Old, mature trees and harmoniously landscaped garden areas create a protected and private atmosphere. The historic sandstone wall, which surrounds the entire property, forms an authentic and representative boundary and underlines the listed character of the property. The sandstone façade underlines the authenticity of the building. Inside, there are numerous original furnishing details that have been preserved to this day: For example, the Tuscan column in the representative entrance hall, 18th century stucco work in the Beletage on the 1st floor, alcoves and painted paneling in their first version on the mansard floor and two impressive vaulted cellars. The ensemble is completed by a very spacious barn, its own sandstone well and a sauna in the side shed. The barn at the rear of the property and the coach house are not listed buildings. The main building is functionally intact and immediately usable and also offers potential for modernization, which can preserve the historic character and enhance the living comfort. The solid building fabric, generous room layouts and high-quality historical materials form an excellent basis for an individual upgrade. The property also offers the opportunity to benefit from tax depreciation and subsidies within the framework of monument protection. These financial advantages make the property particularly attractive for buyers who want to make an economically sensible investment. The location boasts excellent transport links: Situated directly on the B4 between Erlangen and Bamberg, the property can be reached quickly from both towns. The town itself offers a very good infrastructure with shopping facilities, restaurants, medical care and local public transport. This property is a rare offer for lovers of historical architecture who value authenticity, privacy and flexible usage perspectives. Also worth mentioning is the brightness of the individual rooms, which conveys a special feeling of well-being.
