11 ha Farmstead in Ferlach

This exceptional agricultural estate presents itself as a farmstead in a natural, yet excellently connected location near the Drau in the municipality of Ferlach and impressively combines tradition, substance and versatile use possibilities. Embedded in a quiet, sunny environment with a high level of privacy, this property offers a rare combination of size, quality and development potential.

The total estate ownership comprises around 11 Hektar, consisting of about 6 Hektar Mischwald, 5 Hektar Wiesenflächen as well as the actual Hofstelle with around 2.200 m². The areas are located within a manageable radius of around five kilometers and enable both independent cultivation and flexible utilization concepts. Parts of the areas are currently leased, with the existing lease being terminable within a calendar year, enabling short-term own-use.

In the center of the property is the imposing, fully renovated farmhouse, which with its historic substance and the high-quality execution conveys a special living atmosphere. The original building dates from about 1860 and is characterized by its over one meter thick masonry, which not only provides an excellent room climate but also underscores the durability and quality of this construction. As part of an extension in 1980 and extensive renovation measures in recent years, the house was brought to a contemporary standard without losing its original character.

With a living area of over 220 m², two autonomous residential units are spread out, which have been designed with much attention to detail and offer a stylish living idyll. The combination of traditional building elements and modern comfort creates an atmosphere that is well suited for both private use and a high-quality holiday rental in this natural setting. The partly basemented building also features a vaulted cellar level, which due to its constant climate provides ideal conditions for storing food, wine or must, and thus meaningfully complements agricultural use.

The heating of the dwelling is carried out efficiently via a micro district heating solution from the stall adjacent building, fed by a solid-fuel wood gasifier stove. In the summer months, the hot water preparation is additionally supported by an oil-fired furnace. By using the own forest stock for wood production, a particularly economical and sustainable energy supply arises, making the ongoing heating costs—especially considering the own contribution—extremely manageable.

Also the farm buildings emphasize the character of a full-fledged estate. The generously sized stable with upstairs, imposing Tenne offers a variety of usages—from classical animal husbandry, for example for horses, cattle or small animals, to individual concepts such as storage areas, workshops or further expansion options. The complex is complemented by an integrated cold storage as well as an existing Schnapsbrennerei, thereby opening additional utilization potentials for agricultural or commercial activities.

The entire farm complex is positioned out of sight and thus offers maximum privacy without sacrificing good accessibility. This combination of retreat, natural setting and simultaneously good infrastructure makes the property particularly attractive for those who pursue an autonomous lifestyle, agricultural use or a combination of living and working.

Overall, it is a valuable and rare property that convinces with its size, substance and versatility and provides excellent prerequisites for private as well as entrepreneurial use concepts.
