Exclusive architect-designed house in the countryside with approx. 390 sqm living space

The property was built in 1995 in Gifhorn in a traffic-calmed residential area with mature trees at the end of a cul-de-sac. Its restrained architecture blends in perfectly with the natural surroundings. It is only at second glance that the special architectural position of this family home, which is inhabited by the owner himself, becomes apparent, particularly from the largely hidden garden view. The interior reveals an extraordinary floor plan with unique solutions and very high-quality fittings.

The layout and functions of the living and usable areas are designed in such a way that the house can be used by both a smaller and a larger family with many amenities. The rooms are generously proportioned and also offer space for hobbies or can also be used as separate offices, e.g. for a consultancy firm. Nine rooms are available for individual design.

After entering the family home and passing through the first vestibule with checkroom and guest WC, you find yourself in the center of the house, a spacious hallway with a double-flight, self-supporting U-shaped staircase with half landing. The staircase leads to an open gallery on the upper floor.

From the hallway, you reach a utility room, a room, the kitchen, the dining room, the living area and a study on the first floor. Floor-to-ceiling glass elements provide a view from the hallway through the dining room into the garden.

The richly equipped eat-in kitchen can be the favorite room for the whole family. A cooking island in the middle of the room visually separates the large dining area with conservatory from the cooking area. The dining room is located right next to the eat-in kitchen. The very spacious living area is directly adjacent to it. In a lowered part of the living area with conservatory, there is a brick-built wood-burning stove with an air circulation system.

Floor-to-ceiling door and window elements and conservatories with highly insulating glazing allow plenty of daylight into the house and give the impression of being surrounded by greenery.

On the upper floor, the open gallery leads directly into the main rooms. Of particular note are two large (children's) rooms measuring approx. 33 sqm and approx. 38 sqm respectively, both of which have their own covered balcony. A converted loft can be reached from each of these rooms via a solid wooden staircase.

The master bedroom has an open gable construction with a large window front and also has a covered balcony. Next to it is a dressing room and an en-suite bathroom. A second full bathroom is available for the children or guests.

The gallery also leads to an adjoining hallway. This leads to another large room, the sauna, a laundry room and the boiler room.

An in-house garage (approx. 50 sqm) for two vehicles allows convenient and unobserved loading and unloading. Next to the garage there is a utility room of approx. 20 sqm for bicycles and equipment. Parking spaces for a further two to three vehicles are available in the courtyard.

A large, sunken and therefore wind-protected terrace is accessible from the kitchen and living area. The garden surrounds the house and is characterized by old deciduous trees, perennials, evergreen plants and a large shady lawn in front of and behind the house.

The house and residents are protected by a multi-level electronic and mechanical security concept, which was developed in collaboration with Volkswagen Group Security. This includes a connection to an emergency call control center and a security company.

The district town of Gifhorn, with around 44,000 inhabitants, is the cultural and economic center of the district of the same name. The idyllic mill town offers a charming water, forest and heathland landscape for relaxing leisure activities and is therefore a particularly popular place to live for families, but also for people working in Braunschweig and Wolfsburg. Braunschweig and Wolfsburg can be reached quickly via federal highways 4 and 188. Gifhorn offers all utilities and all general and secondary schools.

The mature, traffic-calmed residential area with mature trees is located on a ridge that was formed as an ice age moraine and is therefore approx. 10 to 15 meters above Gifhorn town center. The property is therefore characterized by sandy, well-drained soil. Flooding is not to be expected in this location.

The property is located at the end of a cul-de-sac. Gifhorn town hall and the pedestrian zone are only two kilometers away. The same applies to the hospital. Kindergartens and a supermarket are within walking distance. Schools can be reached by bike in just a few minutes. The slip roads to the B4 and B188 can be reached quickly by car. There is a bus stop approx. 250 m away. Forest areas and other local recreation areas as well as the Golf Club Gifhorn e.V. are in the immediate vicinity.

The special feature of this property, despite its proximity to the center, is the extraordinary, natural and quiet property, which promises relaxation from everyday life. The spacious plot of 1,557 sqm and the surrounding area are characterized by tall deciduous trees and dense planting. Squirrels, hedgehogs and many bird species feel at home here. The main part of the house, the terrace and the garden are not visible from the cul-de-sac and allow for carefree use of the garden.
