Villa in Benken ZH
Due to my merger with my new partner/family, I am selling my unique villa above the vineyards with unobstructable views of the vineyards and the entire Alps (Säntis to Bernese Alps) and the pre-Alpine foreland.The width of the view has also been brought into the house: It is flooded with light, open and modern in design, yet warm and cozy; ideal for people who like to have peace and proximity to nature, but still want to be on the highway in 3 minutes and in Zurich in 25 minutes or in Schaffhausen in 7 minutes.The house, built to the Minergie A standard (Minergie P could be requested), with partly luxurious equipment, offers spacious living and garden areas, plenty of secondary and storage space, as well as a double garage (+ 3 outdoor parking spaces), basement, attic, and plenty of storage space.The house impresses with its well-thought-out practical floor plan with large rooms and plenty of light. The house is slightly sloping, which is why you enter on the upper floor. There are four large bedrooms, an en-suite dressing room, and an en-suite bathroom, as well as another bathroom. Also on this level is the garage and a large storage room for bikes and garden equipment.In the basement, the over 70m2 large open-plan kitchen-living-dining room impresses, with its floor-to-ceiling, wrap-around window fronts, which almost give the feeling of being outside. A guest toilet, laundry room, and house technology are also on this floor, as well as a multifunctional room that can be designed as a hobby room or wellness oasis. Also on this level, built into the mountain under the garage, are the (unheated) cellar rooms and a large wine cellar.In the attic, there is not only a over 20m2 large attic, but also space for two more rooms/offices. Currently, they are still open-plan, but can be converted into closed rooms with little effort.The house technology is characterized by minimal energy consumption and maximum energy production: 94m2 of solar cells on the south-facing roof produce 4 times more energy than the house consumes. The electricity is sold as eco-electricity and finances the entire operating costs. The house is heated with a geothermal probe that extracts heat from over 200m depth.The surrounding garden is a paradise with over 20 fruit trees (apple, pear, plum, peach, cherry, fig, persimmon, quince), a vegetable-herb-and-berry garden, a 36m2 large pergola overgrown with four different grape varieties, and plenty of space to play and be. A babbling fountain and a fire ring invite you to cozy gatherings.I would be happy to send you the documentation of this unique property. Inquiries from brokers are not desired.
