Single house for sale - 9032 Engelburg

Luxury is space, not opulence.

Here, rooms flow into one another, horizontally and vertically, creating new perspectives. The open floor plan merges with the surroundings and brings nature into the house. Exposed concrete on walls and ceilings is harmoniously coordinated with white walls, parquet floors, or dark ceramic tiles, emphasizing the architectural language.

Striking and stoic, closed off to the north and the street, the visitor is welcomed by an open, bright entrance area, which can also be accessed via the spacious double garage.

On the entrance floor, there are utility rooms and a separate apartment with its own entrance and a quiet, private outdoor seating area.

The rooms can easily be used as a guest apartment or studio, or as offices, ateliers, or practices.

The heart of the house is a two-story loggia with an archaic fireplace and oversized sliding doors to the garden. When opened, the loggia becomes an outdoor space but can then be separated from the living area in winter using folding sliding windows, thus becoming a (heated) winter garden. Large, floor-to-ceiling windows flood the house with light and help capture the sun's rays: this is passive solar architecture.

The clear and simply shaped architecture allows for a variety of furnishing options and also offers large walls for your pictures.

The quality of living in the interior flows into the harmonious garden, which seamlessly transitions into the surrounding nature.

The architectural language continues in the garden, where an exposed concrete wall separates the lower area from the upper garden. The pergola, opposite the loggia, provides a place to eat, work, or relax in the shade of the wisteria.

The house also offers the possibility for changes. Plans for variations are available upon request.

LOCATION:

Engelburg: Recreation area between the city of St. Gallen and the countryside

Engelburg is part of the political municipality of Gaiserwald, which also includes Abtwil, and is one of the most popular municipalities on the outskirts of the city of St. Gallen. Nestled in the gently sloping topography, the residents of the house enjoy sunshine from morning to evening, with a clear view towards the city of St. Gallen and the agricultural zone to the west. From the upper floor, there is also a wonderful view of the Alpstein. In good weather conditions, Lake Constance can be seen.

Engelburg is diverse, relaxing, and child-friendly. A perfect place for a young family, for international business travelers, or for those seeking a generous oasis. Due to its size and the guest apartment, it is particularly suitable for living and working under one roof. Hustle and congested streets are foreign to this idyll. Thanks to the excellent connection to the urban public transport, train journeys to Zurich Airport can be managed quickly. The city center of St. Gallen can be reached in about ten minutes. The motorway connection or the Säntispark in Abtwil can be reached by car in 5 minutes.

The beautiful Lake Constance and many other recreational areas are right at your doorstep. Despite the proximity to the city, Engelburg is an oasis of relaxation. In the immediate vicinity, there are hiking trails through forests and meadows and along the romantic Sitter River. The paths to the kindergarten and primary school lead through the quiet neighborhood, far from any main roads.
