Family home with plenty of space in a quiet side street and on the edge of a field

If you are looking for a quiet place close to nature with plenty of space for hobbies and a home office near Lüneburg and within commuting distance of Hamburg, take a look at this offer.

This solid detached house in solid construction is situated in an idyllic location on the edge of a field with a view of the forest in Rullstorf, a community in the joint municipality of Scharnebeck.

The house is well aligned on a plot of around 1,291 sqm with a spacious garden and mature trees.

It offers a living space of approx. 113 sqm on the ground floor, which is divided into a vestibule, guest WC with shower, hallway, children's room, living room, kitchen, bedroom and full bathroom. From the living room you have access to the south-east-facing terrace with electric awning, which provides many hours of sunshine in the morning and afternoon. Between the living room and hallway there is also a tasteful tiled stove, which enables a significant reduction in gas costs.

The fully developed basement also has an area of around 113 m² and is divided into an entrance hall, hallway, boiler room, storage room, laundry room and two further rooms that can be used in a variety of ways. A staircase leads from the boiler room to the carport.

The attic, measuring approx. 86 sqm, has a fully developed and insulated vestibule/storage room as well as an undeveloped drying loft for storage or a home gym. An attic can be added as a further expansion reserve.

The spacious and enchanted cottage garden offers plenty of nature and tranquillity. In particular, the bench next to the boulders under the old cherry tree exudes a rural idyll. A garden shed and a double carport complete the home.

The property in Rullstorf is located at around 34 m above sea level in an attractively elevated position above the Elbe lowlands.

The surrounding area has been inhabited for thousands of years. During excavations on the nearby Kronsberg, the remains of a longhouse were discovered, which is the oldest documented house in what is now Lower Saxony, dating back to around 4000 years BC. The village of Rullstorf was founded as a roundabout around 1150. This is where the Lüneburger Landwehr, a rampart built around 1480 in the nearby forest, begins.

Today, Rullstorf is a municipality in the joint municipality of Scharnebeck in the district of Lüneburg. It has two kindergartens (one of which is a forest kindergarten), a bakery, a farm store, playgrounds and several craft, gardening and landscaping businesses.

The surrounding forests, meadows, farm cafés and cultural sites offer ideal conditions for family outings and outdoor activities. The historic railroad station offers leisure trips.

Doctors, shopping facilities, sports and cultural activities as well as a school center with all types of schools are located in neighboring Scharnebeck. The Hanseatic city of Lüneburg can be reached in around 15 minutes by car.

You can also easily get to Hamburg in less than an hour via the A39, which I did for many years without any problems. It is even possible to commute to Hanover (I did this myself for a year and have fond memories of it).
