some houses
provide living space. others tell a story.
this
extraordinary villa, dating back to 1860, undoubtedly belongs to the latter
category. set within approximately 3,419 m² of park-like grounds and surrounded
by mature trees, the property stands as an impressive testament to the refined
residential culture of the 19th century.
from the
moment one enters the driveway, a distinct sense of arrival is created. behind
the historic façade lies a world that has become increasingly rare: magnificent
ceiling heights, original architectural details, generous sightlines, and an
atmosphere of timeless elegance.
offering
approximately 360 m² of living space, the villa comprises 13 beautifully
proportioned rooms arranged across several levels. the magnificent bel étage
forms the heart of the residence. light-filled salons, an elegant fireplace
room, distinguished reception areas, and an impressive library create an
exceptional living environment where classical sophistication meets modern
comfort.
historic
panel doors, original timber staircases, meticulously restored stucco
detailing, and ceiling heights of up to 3.75 m lend each room its own unique
character. expansive windows frame enchanting views of the landscaped grounds
while filling the interiors with natural light throughout the day.
the villa
has been comprehensively restored in accordance with heritage preservation
standards, with exceptional attention to detail and considerable investment.
historic substance and contemporary living requirements have been united in
remarkable harmony. the result is a residence that preserves the charm and
grandeur of a bygone era while offering all the comforts expected of a refined
modern home.
a
particular highlight can be found within the attic level, where a sauna has
been thoughtfully integrated into the historic roof structure. exposed timber
beams and the striking architecture create a unique atmosphere, transforming
this space into an exclusive private retreat.
the
expansive garden resembles a private landscape park rather than a conventional
residential plot. mature specimen trees, manicured lawns, and a protected
copper beech tree designated as a natural monument lend the estate an almost
aristocratic presence while ensuring exceptional privacy and tranquility.
despite its
peaceful setting, the villa is situated only a short walk from the historic
center of the hanseatic town of kalkar. daily amenities are conveniently
accessible, while excellent transport links and proximity to both düsseldorf
international airport and the rhine-ruhr metropolitan area guarantee
outstanding connectivity.
whether
envisioned as a prestigious family residence, an elegant entrepreneurial
estate, or an exclusive retreat for connoisseurs of historic architecture, this
remarkable property represents far more than a home—it is a rare lifestyle
opportunity.
a further
unique feature of this offering is the option to acquire an adjacent plot of
approximately 800 m².
planning
permission has already been grant ed for the construction of a high-quality
three-unit residential building with a total living area of approximately 350 m².
this opens up a wide range of possibilities, whether for multi-generational
living, the creation of a guest residence, accommodation for family members, or
as a long-term investment with significant development potential.
alter natively,
the additional plot could serve as an extension of the existing park grounds,
further enhancing the estate’s impressive landscape and reinforcing its
character as a private country residence.
the plot
may, of course, be acquired independently of the main house and is offered
entirely as an optional addition.
this
exceptional estate therefore not only combines history, architecture, and
quality of life in a truly unique manner, but also presents the rare
opportunity to shape its future according to one′s own vision.
