Forests and meadows characterize the surroundings, while the absence of direct neighbors allows for a high degree of privacy. On the 812 m² large property, a well with its own spring water creates a special atmosphere. Access is either via the Gasthaus Oberer Gäbris over a approximately 2 km long, partially paved private road or via the village of Bühler over a approximately 4 km long, partially paved private road. A vehicle with four-wheel drive is recommended for the journey. The secluded location makes the property's special charm, but also brings certain challenges, especially in winter. Interested buyers should be aware of both the advantages and the requirements of this exceptional location. Living with character and history The older wooden house exudes original, rural charm. The interior design is very simple and Spartan. Many areas are still largely in their original condition. This provides an authentic basis for a careful renovation or a comprehensive redesign according to personal ideas. The house is connected to fresh water, wastewater, electricity, and multimedia. It is heated by a tile stove in the living room, which is fueled from the kitchen. Space for animals, hobbies, and new ideas The attached barn offers approximately 160 m² of existing ancillary space, providing various possibilities. It is suitable, for example, for small animal husbandry, as a garage, workshop, studio, storage, or hobby room. An expansion of the living area is also conceivable, subject to the required official permits. Those who want to realize a completely new residential concept can also consider demolition with subsequent replacement construction.
