Our home is between 200 and 300 years old with the original 'fachwerk' visible in the walls. We have spent almost 3 years renovating the house by ourselves, therefore all the rooms are not perfectly revamped yet. The garden is large, however also at a beginning phase. Parking for a car on the premises and barbeque is fine. We have a wooden play house with slide for children and a cage with rabbits, otherwise no animals in or around the house. The house has 5 available bedrooms, 2 kitchens, one bathroom and 2 wc's.
We have tried to maintain the original structure and antiquity of this old house. If you like a cosy, country house atmosphere, you will hopefully enjoy sharing the passion and hard work we have done to our home.
