At the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, where the last stepped path climbs the slope, this house sits high above the Birs valley facing southwest, into the evening sun. To the north it borders directly on a protected private green belt with oaks, some more than 300 years old: a quiet natural buffer that also keeps the view unobstructed for good.

The rare thing about this location is its contradiction: forest-edge calm and long views on one side, city access on the other. Basel SBB is reached in 10 minutes by train, the station is a 700 m walk, and the A18 motorway is roughly 2 km away.

For international families, the setting is hard to match. The International School Basel (ISB) English-language, IB World School is just a short drive away: the Junior School campus in Aesch and the Middle and Senior campuses in Reinach are both easily reached via the nearby A18. Local Swiss schools, from kindergarten to secondary level, are within walking distance, making a bilingual upbringing effortless.

Under one roof, the property offers what usually requires two addresses: generous family living on the main floor, plus a separately accessed apartment (Einliegerwohnung) with its own entrance ideal for multi-generational living, a home office, an au pair, or guests.
