The House

A house from 1883, reimagined from the ground up — oak and quiet colours, and room to breathe after a day on the Malerweg.

We are fully renovating the old apartment house on Schandauer Straße: new bathrooms, new kitchens, quality beds and interiors inspired by the landscape rather than catalogues. In summer 2027 we welcome our first guests — perhaps you.
