Country house from 1930 on the edge of the forest – three levels and lots of space for ideas – town centre within walking distance

Some houses do not need to be reinvented – only brought back to life.

At the edge of the forest, on a 795 m² fenced corner plot, stands this country house from 1930. In a quiet, sunny location, just a few minutes’ walk from the center of Velden, it is waiting for people who recognize its character and want to give it a future. The south-facing orientation provides plenty of sunshine and a bright, welcoming living atmosphere.

The green wooden gable with balcony, the sash windows with shutters and the high tiled roof give the house its distinctive appearance. This continues inside: a wooden staircase with turned balustrade, leaded-glass windows in the vestibule and stairwell, a tiled stove, parquet and terrazzo floors. Details that cannot be bought in a new-build property.

Ground floor – the heart of the house

The house is entered via covered steps and a bright, glazed vestibule. From the hallway, you reach the kitchen, WC and two rooms, one of them with a tiled stove. The extension contains a bathroom and another room.

Upper floor – retreat under the roof

A half-turn wooden staircase with a leaded-glass window leads to an open anteroom. From here, there are three rooms and a WC. The two south-facing rooms open via balcony doors onto the shared balcony with a view of the Karawanken. Sleeping niches and built-in cupboards are fitted into the high knee wall, and the smaller room has its own washbasin.

Garden level – almost a separate apartment

The basement is partially at garden level and has its own covered entrance. Here there is a kitchen, a bathroom, two rooms, one of them with a stove, as well as an anteroom and storage room. There is also a cellar room in the extension.

Your project – what needs to be done

The house was last used as a summer house and requires renovation. Electricity, heating and water function, but are outdated and must be renewed. It is currently heated by tiled stove and individual stoves; a modern heating system is not available. In addition, drainage must be installed around the house.

Your project – what can be achieved

Renovate it and use it as a spacious single-family house: renew the building services, modernize the bathrooms and preserve the wooden staircase, leaded glass and tiled stove. In addition, converting the attic is an option – a separate bedroom of approx. 25 m² can be created here. Or create two units: The garden level with its own entrance, kitchen and bathroom is suitable as a separate unit for family, guests or renting.

The property is not protected as a historic monument. This means there are no heritage-protection requirements for renovation, conversion and extension; the relevant provisions are the local building regulations (zoning: building land – spa area, building density 0.2 – 0.4).
