The property is located south of Hamburg, nestled in a charming landscape between the heath and the River Elbe. The Lüneburg Heath Nature Reserve as well as the "Elbtalaue" biosphere reserve of Lower Saxony are just outside the city. This predominantly flat landscape, with its rivers, forests and meadows invites you to take part in many activities - whether cycling, horse-riding, watercraft paddling, looking at the animals, and much more. This residence was planned and built from 1992 until 1995. Nearly 900 s.qm. of living area extend over three floors. The villa is erected on a very valuable piece of land - 4.000 sq.m. of breathtaking beauty. The lease runs for further 82 years and the very favorable ground-rent is of great advantage. The property is surrounded by beautiful old oak - trees and borders on a 600 sq.rd. large meadow. 73 columns support this princely residence. From the first view of the house it is clear that the builder has focused his attention onto the shape of the garden and courtyard and onto the colors of the interior decoration. The drive in front of the entrance portal is surrounded by an overgrown wall, made of stones from the field and is large enough to drive by car round the fountain. The two-leafed front door under the balcony with its monumental ledge opens into a large hall. The classical open staircase immediately attracts your attention. The marbled niches in the semicircular walls beside the entrance and all the walls in the dining-area, which are glazed in wipe technique underneath the stucco, lend a unique southern flair to this part of the house. The hall leads into a more than 120 sq.m. large, open dining-area with fire place which was fetched out of a French castle. The Villa is large enough to achieve maximum freedom of movement, its tasteful and elegant interior design creating at the same time a relaxed cozy atmosphere. The house provides lots of windows, so that you can enjoy marvelous views over the meadows. You then pass the long table which seats up to 16 people and enter the living-room, which is surrounded by columns and opens through French doors in a semicircular form onto the terrace. The antique chandeliers and the exclusive open marble fireplace, with the huge mirror hanging over it, originate from French castles. There is a height of 6 m in front of the open fireplace because here is the circle-shaped gallery with a diameter of 4 m. The floor in the living-rooms and the kitchen is laid out with oak parquet. The under floor central heating, together with a biological way of building ensures a pleasant room climate. When talking about the climate, it must be mentioned that there is no danger of electric smog in this house, since only protected electric cable were used and all steel was earthed. In the centre of the first floor you enter the bright gallery which is an additional room for dining. The other rooms, on the both sides of the gallery, have their own terraces, so you can enjoy the fantastic view also from here. The very impressive bathroom of the massage area is tiled with large, rose-coloured marble tiles and contains a circular bath built in the tower, which is at the side of the residence. On the second floor every wall can be moved as you wish. The large balcony over the terraces is a fantastic outside sitting. The south wing is currently used as an office area. Moreover a base plate was drawn in the former swimming-pool and wellness area. The ground can be removed at any time and converted into a generous pool, sauna and fitness area. The 13-m-long pool is still available under the ground construction and is laid out with compact, Italian glass mosaic and disposes in a semicircle of a Roman seat stair with jacuzzi and ground nozzles.
