Property description:

The town house, which is in great need of renovation, has a usable area of approx. 169 m² spread over a total of four floors. On the first floor there is a commercial unit of approx. 54 m², which was originally used as a restaurant (plans available) and is currently not in use. The living space of 115 m² is spread over the three floors above.

The 1 1/2-room apartment on the first floor is approximately 41 m² in size and has a hallway, a bathroom with toilet and shower and a kitchen with window.

A 3-room maisonette apartment extends over the 2nd and 3rd floors (2nd floor + attic), which are connected by a wooden spiral staircase. The 3-room apartment has a size of approx. 74 m², the mansard roof and the balcony are included accordingly. The living space on the 2nd floor is very spacious, offering an open-plan living and dining area with kitchen, access to an approximately 9 m² balcony and a separate toilet room.

On the 3rd floor (attic) there are two further rooms which are used as bedrooms, the larger of which has a dormer window. The bathroom with toilet, bathtub and shower cubicle is also located on the top floor.

The house was built in 1890 on a plot of 74 m², has been renovated several times and has no cellar. The building is centrally located in Furth (only 150 m from the Further town square) and is not a listed building. Other houses are lined up to the right and left. Lorenz-Zierl-Straße, which runs past the house (historically one of Furth's first streets), was converted from a two-way street to a one-way street with wide sidewalks in 2024, meaning that a considerable reduction in traffic can be expected.

The expansion of the stream bed of the Kalten Pastritz opposite and the redesign of Hofer Island (new planting of approx. 30 trees) and the church square, which are only 100 m away, make the location of the house even more attractive.

The house would be available immediately by arrangement, all units are not rented and due to its central location in Furth also in view of the currently very favorable regional development (expansion of infrastructure, tourism development "Bavarian Forest", Drachenstich as intangible cultural heritage, Drachensee, Landesgartenschau 2025) a very interesting property. A fiber optic connection was installed in summer 2024. However, the renovation backlog (moisture damage) must be taken into account!

Furth im Wald has a wonderful small-town atmosphere. Due to its location between the Upper Palatinate and Bavarian Forest, the picturesque town is surrounded by a wonderful landscape and offers many leisure activities in all seasons.

Thanks to the well-considered expansion of the road infrastructure, long-distance traffic has been routed around the town, making it an important hub to the Czech Republic due to its proximity to the Česká Kubice border crossing.

The State Garden Show to be held in Furth in 2025 is expected to raise Furth's profile as a tourist destination. The urban development projects initiated as part of the State Garden Show are beautifying Furth on an almost daily basis and making it an even more liveable town.
