Middle element of a three-part row house. Beautiful village, charming landscape, high recreational value, a lot of quality of life. Here you have the choice: Use as a holiday home or live permanently, both fit.

Located at the confluence of Linth and Sernf, Schwanden is on one hand a village with industry, but also a pretty settlement with quality of life. Surrounded by striking mountains, close to Klöntalersee, which resembles a Scandinavian fjord, a bit further away is the winter sports resort of Elm, the car-free Braunwald, the Klausen Pass, the UNESCO World Heritage Site Glarner Hauptüberschiebung: Live where others want to vacation. And those looking for urban flair as a balance will find it ten minutes by car in Glarus, the smallest capital in Switzerland.

Although Schwanden has grown from a small trading place to a significant industrial settlement, the village center shows that it was originally a mountain farming cluster village. This part of the settlement is so worth seeing that it has been listed in the Federal Inventory of Protected Localities of Regional Importance.

The Thon settlement part is located on the road to Schwändi and includes the entire western part of the village. The narrow, winding road along the slope forms a branched access network together with a few branching paths. The buildings are closely spaced at irregular intervals along the road and paths. At the end of this tranquil neighborhood stands the building for sale.

It is the middle house of a three-part row house arranged in a precise row and closed construction style. A typical alpine wooden construction: The corner joints and beam heads are clearly visible, although the walls have been covered for protection against the weather.

The high ground floor consists of a hallway with an opening to the large living room with tiled stove and at the back to a cozy living kitchen with corner bench and table in a wall niche. A guest toilet is located at the back entrance. On the upper floor, there are two bedrooms and a bathroom with WC, washbasin, shower, and bathtub. The attic is a spacious loft that could also be converted into a cool room for teenagers, and in the basement, there is a cellar and a workshop.

The interior design is traditional, with a lot of beautifully grained wood and first-class workmanship. The wooden construction could be whitewashed and new floor coverings would enhance the rooms. A new kitchen is not absolutely necessary, but would be enjoyable. The building envelope is in good condition; roof, eaves, and downpipes, facade, windows, doors - everything is well maintained with commitment.

The property can become a holiday home, as a spacious base for sporting activities in an extraordinary area with high recreational value. Or one wants to save money and no longer remain a tenant, this is an affordable home for many: singles, couples, families. There is enough space for smaller vehicles in front of the house, and there are public parking spaces just across the street.

We look forward to your contact and are happy to provide you with the sales documents without obligation.
