Family apartment with large plot near Stift Rein

In the immediate vicinity of one of Styria’s most significant historic monasteries, the Cistercian Abbey of “Rein”, this interesting property is situated on a large plot of land with an existing building offering versatile potential uses.

The existing residential building dates from the late 1950s and is predominantly in its original condition. However, the existing building fabric is still in a properly maintained condition and thus offers an interesting starting point for all those who prefer to further develop what already exists rather than focus exclusively on new construction. This offer is therefore aimed not only at people who would like to fulfil their dream of having their own spacious home, but above all at those who are skilled in construction and are not afraid of a little “manual work”.

The existing room layout of approx. 110 m², together with a cellar, also offers interesting conditions for versatile use, either by two families, as a multigenerational home for young and old, for families with greater space requirements or for people who wish to combine living space with personal retreats.

The almost 2,200 m² plot of land (zoning designation WA with density 0.2 – 0.5) is undoubtedly the real highlight of this offer. Whether as an expansive garden, inviting open spaces, the creation of personal retreats or a possible subdivision of the plot – depending on the building-law and property-law framework conditions – this opens up a wide range of perspectives for sustainable use.

The immediate proximity to the traditional Cistercian Abbey of Rein also gives the property a special character in terms of its location. At the same time, the necessary infrastructure in Gratwein can be reached in around five minutes by car (public transport is within immediate walking distance). This makes it possible to combine a spacious residential environment with practical everyday access to shopping facilities and other amenities.

This property is therefore not an object for prospective buyers looking for a house that is ready for immediate occupancy without any further effort. Rather, it is an invitation to people who recognise possibilities, develop ideas and are prepared to breathe new life into the existing substance.
