About this dream house
Property Description
The house is ideal for a larger family who would like to live and work in their own home. It also offers the opportunity to support the financing by renting out a granny apartment. Due to the permanent updating of the property, there is no renovation backlog!
This well-kept detached house is located near the edge of a quiet field in Usingen-Eschbach and has a total living area of approx. 226 m². Of this, around 110 m² is on the first floor and a further 48 m² on the top floor, which means that with a living space of around 158 m², these two floors correspond to the living space of a detached house.
The heart of the property is the light-flooded living/dining area of around 44 m² with a wood-burning stove and access to the 6 m² south-facing balcony. However, a large part of family life also takes place in the approx. 20 m² eat-in kitchen, especially as the inviting 34 m² south-west-facing veranda can be accessed directly from here. The fitted kitchen from 1999 has been updated in recent years with high-quality electrical appliances from Miele, Liebherr and Siemens and is included in the price.
On the large veranda, you can spend relaxing hours with family or friends barbecuing and relaxing, especially in the warmer months. In addition to these two largest rooms, there is also a 12 m² office on the first floor, as well as a daylight bathroom equipped with high-quality Colani fittings (toilet, bidet, washbasin and bathtub). So that you can enjoy the first rays of sunshine at breakfast in the morning, you also have an east-facing terrace of approx. 28 m² at your disposal.
The attic offers two equally sized rooms with a floor area of approx. 30 m² (7.5 x 4 m) in each room. One of the two rooms is visually divided by a small landing and, like the other, is ideal as a teenager's room. Both rooms each have a window on the gable end, as well as a large skylight with electric shutters. Between the two rooms is a complete bathroom with corner bath, round shower, washbasin and toilet. The bathroom is heated by a towel radiator and electric underfloor heating. The bathroom receives daylight through a large skylight with electric shutters.
In the basement, accessible at ground level from the south-facing terrace, there is a further approx. 68 m² of living space divided into 3 rooms, a shower room with sauna preparation and a laundry room with separate access to the garage. Two of the 3 south-facing rooms have direct access to the approx. 20 m² sun-drenched terrace. There is also a cellar room on this floor, as well as the boiler room with oil central heating from 1998 (burner from 2017) and a hot water tank with heat pump. This part of the property can be used as a parents' area or office. Alternatively, it can be separated from the rest of the house and rented out as a granny apartment to generate additional rental income. In addition to residential use, a change of use also offers the possibility of commercial use for non-disruptive craft businesses (e.g. hairdresser), stores serving the area (e.g. bakery) or for freelance and similar activities (a small office, doctor's practice, beauty salon, massage parlor, etc.). An office can also benefit from a requested 1,000 MB fiber optic connection.
Two garages, one of which has a small pit, as well as a large 9 m long carport and various parking spaces belong to the house. The 10 m x 4.5 m parking space for a mobile home is equipped with a waste disposal facility and electricity connection.
The move-in date can be arranged flexibly by arrangement.
