You are unique and a real eye-catcher: The nine earth houses in Dietikon, which come together to form a picturesque residential complex. At the center of the development is an idyllic biotope that is collectively owned by all residents. This natural jewel is not only a place of relaxation and encounter but also an important contribution to biodiversity. One of these earth houses, a unit with 180 m² of living space in the southwestern part of the settlement, is now for sale.
The renowned Swiss architect Peter Vetsch, who realized the settlement in 1993, is considered a pioneer of sustainable building. His vision: living spaces that are not only unique and aesthetically pleasing but also ecological and sustainable. The organic shapes of his earth houses harmoniously integrate into the landscape and create a sense of security and tranquility.
The construction of the earth houses is as fascinating as it is functional: they consist of a steel-sprayed concrete structure covered with a layer of earth. This construction method offers excellent energy properties, natural insulation, and protection from external influences such as heat, cold, or noise. It also ensures a durable and environmentally friendly construction that preserves the ecological balance.
The interior of the earth house is just as extraordinary as its exterior appearance. It not only offers protection and comfort but also creates an unexpectedly cozy atmosphere. Thanks to the organic construction style, which favors gently curved shapes and natural materials, the spatial feeling is incomparable: harmonious, warm, and inviting. Thoughtful window openings allow daylight to enter elegantly and create bright living spaces. Despite the unique architecture, the interiors are flexible and offer numerous design possibilities. Organic beauty thus combines with modern comfort.
The floor plan of the house is thoughtfully designed. On the ground floor, you are welcomed by an inviting dining area located at the foot of the semi-open kitchen. Adjacent to this is the bright living area with direct access to the front terrace – perfect for relaxed hours outdoors. Also on this level is another room that is ideal as an office or children's room. This combination of living and working areas makes the ground floor an ideal place for social gatherings and productive work.
A few paragraphs down, you will find the retreat area of the house. The spacious bedroom and the roomy bathroom with bathtub and shower offer the highest comfort. Both rooms have direct access to the rear terrace, which combines privacy and a connection to nature.
The lower floor combines practical functionality with additional living comfort. Passing two large utility rooms, one of which houses the newly installed heating system, a ground probe heat pump, you reach two more rooms. One of them has its own ensuite bathroom with shower, providing maximum flexibility for family members or guests.
The basement also offers direct access to the communal underground garage. Included in the offer are two garage spaces directly in front of the house entrance as well as an additional space in the outer area of the parking garage.
Experience the luxury of a sustainable living concept that offers you security and quality of life at the highest level – a home where you truly feel at home.
