WHERE THE SPECIAL FEELS LIKE HOME - EXCLUSIVE ROUND LOG CHALET IN A DREAMLIKE NATURAL SETTING

There are houses one visits. And there are places one experiences.

Nestled in the lush nature of Upper Carinthia, surrounded by forest, greenery and the impressive backdrop of the mountains, lies a home that pleasantly sets itself apart from the ordinary. The very first view suggests that something special has been created here: an extraordinary, handcrafted log house from the Drau Valley, whose powerful architecture, natural materials and sheltered location convey a way of life that has become rare today.

Here, the world seems to slow down a little.

Solid wood shapes not only the architecture but also the atmosphere of the house. Visible log walls and wooden beams, warm surfaces and the distinctive interior create a sense of comfort that can hardly be expressed in square metres. At the same time, selected materials and the modern building technology, which was only newly installed in 2022, provide contemporary living comfort.

The heart of the house is the spacious living area. Here, alpine character meets a special sense of space. A fireplace becomes the atmospheric centrepiece – a place for long evenings, crackling fires and those moments for which one would actually like to take time much more often.

Large windows bring the landscape directly into the house. Instead of neighbouring façades, the view extends into the greenery and onto the surrounding mountains. The boundaries between indoors and outdoors seem almost to disappear.

And outside, this way of life continues.

The generous terraces and outdoor areas offer a wide variety of favourite spots: the first coffee in the fresh morning air, a late breakfast in the sunshine, long summer evenings with friends or simply a quiet moment with a view of nature. The images in the existing brochure make it particularly clear how sheltered the house is, nestled in the wooded surroundings, and how strongly the various wooden terraces are connected with the landscape.

Retreat, tranquillity and a touch of luxury

The private areas of the house also remain true to its character. The bathroom with bathtub, shower and WC combines natural comfort with modern convenience. The accommodation is complemented by two bedrooms, various ancillary rooms and practical storage options. An air-source heat pump and the energy-efficient new-build standard underscore that contemporary technology lies behind the traditional appearance.

Another highlight is the natural swimming pond: after a day in the mountains, take a dip, unwind and enjoy the special surroundings – here, living becomes a small daily holiday experience.

An additional covered storage area provides valuable space for all those things that are part of life, leisure and enjoying the surroundings. Whether bicycles, motorcycles, garden equipment, tools, ski and sports equipment or seasonal items – many things can be stored here safely and conveniently. This keeps everything tidy in and around the house, while providing sufficient storage space for a wide range of hobbies and eventualities.

A property that offers privacy

Approximately 1.815 m² of land gives this property the space its architecture deserves. Forest and nature form an almost private setting around the house. With the large terraces, generous open-air spaces are created.

The location combines two qualities that are rarely found together: soothing seclusion and good accessibility.

For people who are not looking for just any house

This property is aimed at people for whom luxury does not primarily mean size.

But rather tranquillity. Nature. Privacy. Authenticity.

People who would rather look out onto greenery in the morning than at the row of houses opposite. People who appreciate the scent of wood, the crackling of a fire and the quiet of their own retreat. And those who love traditional alpine architecture without wanting to forgo the comforts of a modern house.

Whether as an exceptional primary residence, private refuge or retreat amid the Carinthian mountains – this log house is not an off-the-shelf property.

It is a place to arrive. To breathe deeply. To stay.

And perhaps exactly the place one has so far only imagined finding someday.
