Residential house:
On the first floor there is a hallway with staircase, a bedroom, a bathroom with bathtub, laundry room, the kitchen with pantry and an open living / dining area. On the upper floor there are three rooms, a hallway and a second bathroom with shower.
Above the second floor there is an unfinished attic with access to the chimney. There is also a small underground cellar below the house, which can be accessed from the hallway.
The property has a photovoltaic system (14kWp) with storage (10kWh), heat pump heating and an insulated attic ceiling. This guarantees future-proof living in terms of energy. The ancillary costs are accordingly very low, even including electromobility. An energy certificate is available.
All corrugated sheet roofs (Eternit) were replaced with trapezoidal sheet metal with a fleece coating. Before the PV system was installed, the roof area in question was re-roofed (incl. battens + underlayment)
The chimney was renovated as part of the renewal of the water-bearing wood-burning stove. The stove is used both for comfort and to support the peak load of the heat pump.
The main electrical distribution of the house was renewed and dimensioned with sufficient reserve. The supply line from the house connection to the main distribution board and from the main distribution board to the sub-distribution boards was also renewed.
The ceiling on the upper floor was raised to a modern living room height, creating a very pleasant living environment.

Exterior:
Adj­acent to the house is the barn with ample storage space for hay and straw. Inside the barn there is a former party room. In the first extension of the barn is the spacious tack room. On the opposite side is a firewood store and the horse stable with the paddock and an open storage area for trailers/equipment. The sand paddock was equipped with new sand in 2023.
In combination with the storage area in the barn, the stable offers sufficient capacity for 2-4 horses.
The electrical installation has been completely renewed in the entire barn and stable area. In addition, part of the barn has a cellar. This cellar is very temperature-stable and is currently used for garden tools and beverage storage.
There is also an old cowshed, which is currently used as a motorcycle garage and storage area. There is also a separate room in the same building that has been set up as a workshop.
The property also includes a piece of grassland (6000m²) which can be reached on foot in 15 minutes and is used for haymaking.
Two further meadow plots (2x10000 m²) are leased and are used as paddocks and for haymaking. Both leases can be taken over.
There is a riding club in Gedern that has an indoor arena and two great riding arenas with excellent surfaces for training the horses. It is easy to get there with a trailer. A great alternative to woods and meadows, especially in winter, to keep your horses fit.

In the exposé you will find further pictures as well as an overview of the low energy-related running costs (heating, hot water, electricity and mobility).

The property is located just one row of houses away from the edge of the field in beautiful Gedern-Steinberg.
Steinberg impresses with its proximity to nature and fields. In addition, the Gederner See recreational area is not far away and invites you to cool off in summer.

The branching forest paths are ideal for a fast gallop, but you can also enjoy a leisurely evening ride to the full. Thanks to its proximity to the Vogelsberg nature paradise, it is simply perfect for horse and dog lovers.
