Family Home Maria Gugging

On the edge of Klosterneuburg, where the streets become quieter and you get the sense of gaining a bit of distance from everyday life, this property is tucked away in a small cul-de-sac – pleasantly secluded, without hiding completely.

From the outside the house presents itself deliberately understated, almost reserved, almost like a classic bungalow that doesn't make a fuss about itself. And this is where the first little game of this house already begins – because what you see at first glance is not everything.

When you step onto the property, perception changes dramatically. The ground opens up, the house makes an elegant “jump” and reveals underneath a second, fully fledged level that sits at garden level. A concept that is not only architecturally exciting but also brings a very special quality to everyday life.

On around 166 m² of living space, distributed over two levels, a living space opens up that not only meets today's demands but mainly allows one thing: ideas.

Upon arriving on the upper floor, you are greeted by a generous foyer with ample space for wardrobe and arrival. From here you reach the living room, opened to the south, bathed in light and with views into the surrounding forests as well as into your own garden – a room that, unpretentiously, makes you want to sit and stay.

The room opposite has so far been used quite classically as a bedroom – pleasantly positioned and with just the right distance from the rest of the activity. If you wish, you can turn it into a home office; if not, leave it as it always was: a quiet retreat.

Along the corridor the kitchen appears, nicely square, generously designed and with sufficient space for everything that may happen there – from a quick coffee to a somewhat more ambitious cooking evening.

In the rear part of the upper floor are two more rooms that have previously served as children's rooms. Generously laid out and with a view into the greenery, they offer exactly this pleasant mix of retreat and openness that you wish for for the younger residents – or for yourself.

Somewhere in between is the bathroom in the typical style of the 80s, which still roams the whole house.

Upon entering the basement, the level unfolds in a pleasantly direct way – straight ahead, you basically go out into the garden again. Just before that, on the left, lies a wonderful room with direct garden access, one of those rooms that immediately radiate a certain calm.

Also in the basement, toward the front, is another, very large room – with a use you don't see every day. The owner has dedicated himself to his passion and has set up a small, very personal “stone museum,” complemented by several aquariums, one of which remains to this day.

A room with a history, then – and with surprisingly much potential for reinterpretation. Perhaps two bedrooms, a generous master area, or maybe a hobby room with character; the choice is yours. There are more than enough possibilities here.

At the rear of the house are the functional rooms such as laundry, boiler room and workshop, pleasantly separated yet easily accessible.

An improvised conservatory also adjoins – not thought of as an architectural highlight, but rather as a highly pragmatic solution that reliably helped the plants through the colder months. Its strengths lie less in appearance than in usefulness… and perhaps exactly in that honesty.

The property with its 709 m² initially presents its quiet side – sun, lots of greenery and that constant birdsong that you eventually no longer notice consciously.

You walk a few steps further, scan the view… and notice that the garden apparently has its own notion of where it is geographically located.

Palms and impressive olive trees stand here as if they have accommodated themselves to the location – or have redefined it themselves.

And at this moment you understand that this garden can do more than you initially thought.

In summary, this house lies in a truly excellent location, already providing a solid foundation for good living and at the same time possessing the rare quality of inviting new thoughts.

The interior fittings may not entirely align with today’s zeitgeist – but that is precisely the opportunity to give the house a completely new face with a little patience and sensitivity.

The garden, in any case, already plays in its own league and offers room for everything the heart desires.

Also, infrastructurally the location shows its practical side: the bus is almost at the door and takes you without transfers to Heiligenstadt; schools, kindergartens and shopping are easily reachable, and through the Vienna Woods you can quickly reach the Vienna districts as well as toward Tulln.

A house for people who do not simply want to move in, but want to create something – with quiet, with quality and with a good sense of what really counts.

Curious? Perfect, I look forward to showing you this interesting opportunity in person very soon.
