Bright maisonette apartment with distant views

There is good reason why Ölberg is one of Klosterneuburg’s most popular and, at the same time, most exclusive residential areas. High above the town, you live here in wonderfully peaceful surroundings, surrounded by well-kept houses and a good neighbourhood – while enjoying a view that otherwise seems to come straight from a picture book.

Bisamberg, Burg Kreuzenstein, plenty of greenery and a wide horizon: the view sweeps across the landscape without immediately meeting the next row of houses. The plot slopes gently, creating a wonderful sense of openness in front of the house. A location that cannot be rebuilt, upgraded or, above all, replicated.

However peaceful it is up here, you are by no means cut off from everyday life. The bus stops practically outside the door and regularly takes the children to school; the kindergarten is within walking distance. Shopping facilities are also easy to reach, and Vienna is just a short drive away via the bypass road. So you live wonderfully privately without having to give up short distances.

The small lane also contributes to the special quality of life. At first glance it appears to be a dead end, but in fact it simply makes a quiet loop. There is hardly any through traffic, no hectic passing cars and no vehicles that end up here by chance. Those who come by are primarily people who live here or want to visit someone.

And it is precisely in this special place that there stands a house from the early 1970s, bringing above all one thing: a surprising amount of room for new ideas.

It offers two generous residential levels, a fully basemented area and a layout that allows for very different ways of living. Whether a large family, two generations under one roof or a combination of living and working – here, life does not have to be forced to adapt to the floor plan.

The house is solid and displays the unmistakable style of its era. Wood panelling, coffered ceilings and classic floor tiles tell stories of past decades. Anyone looking for a house in the latest residential trend will still want to do some work here. Those who appreciate good substance, generous spaces and the opportunity to shape things themselves can already start planning.

On the ground floor, the large kitchen-living room forms the centre of daily life. There is enough space here for a long dining table, cooking together and all the conversations that usually take place precisely where someone was actually intending to cut vegetables.

The view is a constant companion. Even at breakfast, the landscape opens up before you – wide, green and wonderfully peaceful. Due to the special hillside location, the likelihood that this view will one day disappear behind a new building is extremely low.

The adjoining living salon, measuring around 38 m², offers space without having to negotiate over every square metre. A large sofa area, an additional dining area and a cosy reading corner can easily be combined here.

The northeast-facing terrace is directly in front. In the morning, the sun accompanies coffee and Kipferl, while the terrace remains pleasantly shaded in the heat of the summer midday. A place for the newspaper, leisurely breakfasts and those moments when you only intended to look outside briefly and then end up sitting there a little longer.

A former veranda area was enclosed and converted into an additional room. An unusual interior window connects it visually with the living area and gives it a character all of its own. The room is currently used as a bedroom and offers a direct view of the garden.

Another room is located right next to it. Whether it becomes a dressing room, office, guest room or personal retreat is determined not by the floor plan, but by the future life in the house. This floor is completed by a compact bathroom with shower and WC.

The upper floor was extensively renovated in 2011 and originally designed as a separate living area for the younger generation. It is not merely a repetition of the ground floor, but feels brighter, airier and almost a little like a lookout over Klosterneuburg.

Here too, there is a fully equipped kitchen-living room of the same generous dimensions as on the ground floor – this time with direct access to the balcony. Nature, openness and the horizon accompany you through the upper level as well.

One of the rooms is open up to the roof ridge. This creates an extraordinary sense of space with a genuine wow effect. Next to it are another room and a private bathroom.

The largest room on the upper floor was most recently used as a living room. Thanks to two terrace doors and two windows, it can easily be divided if required. For example, it could become two well-lit children’s rooms – each with its own access to the outdoors and a view that would probably make every wall poster unnecessary.

This gives the house many possibilities: plenty of space for a large family, sufficient retreats for several generations or separate areas for living and working. Two kitchens and the good layout create freedom without already dictating how the house must be lived in tomorrow.

The gently sloping garden is easy to use and offers both sunny and shady spots. Flower beds, playing children, a hammock or a deckchair with a far-reaching view – everything can find its place here. After all, a garden does not have to be perfectly level. It is allowed to have character.

The house has a full basement and provides ample space for provisions, tools, bicycles, garden equipment and all those things whose true quantity one only realises when moving house. The direct access from the basement into the garden is particularly practical.

The house is heated by an oil heating system from 2012. During the summer months, a solar system supports hot-water production.

This house wants to be modernised and brought into the present day. In return, it offers something that no renovation can create: one of Klosterneuburg’s most sought-after locations, plenty of peace and quiet, a pleasant neighbourhood and a view that brings joy anew every day.

The house can be changed. This location is one you will want to keep.
