4.5 room Apartment in Hettlingen

The Sagipark was created in 2023 on the site of the old Surbeck sawmill at the southern entrance of Hettlingen: 33 apartments, five row houses, and a single-family house, designed by a local architectural firm. The buildings adopt the position, shape, and volume of the Hettlingen village typology — large-volume gable roofs, wooden facades, and a deliberately calm roof landscape. This apartment is not located on Schaffhauserstrasse, but in the recessed building towards the grown core zone, with a distance to the next building.

The house has only three residential units — one per floor. The ground floor belongs to this apartment alone: no neighboring party on the same floor, no shared apartment wall. Instead, there are windows on all four sides of the building. In the morning, the sun is in the dining room, at noon on the terrace, and in the evening in the large room on the west side.

From the living room, you can directly access the outside: first to the covered porch of about 14 m², which remains usable even in rain and midday heat, then to the terrace and into the garden of about 145.7 m². The garden is flat, grown-in, and faces the green side — a view of the greenery instead of the facade opposite.

Inside, the apartment is from 2023 and correspondingly new: flooring, open kitchen with cooking island, dark stone cladding, and partially handle-less fronts, a bathroom with bathtub and double sink, as well as a second wet room with shower and toilet. In the entrance, there is a spacious built-in closet. The corridor distributes to three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and the living room/kitchen.

Heating is provided by a ground-source heat pump via underfloor heating: no oil, no gas, no heating renovation on the horizon. On the roof, there is a photovoltaic system, in the underground garage, there is a charging management system for electric vehicles, and the apartment is connected to fiber optics.

The apartment includes two parking spaces in the underground garage — the two best in the house, one of which is significantly wider due to the garage layout. The garage entrance is located on Mitteldorfstrasse for reasons of local protection; the area itself is accessible via footpaths.

A ground floor with elevator, everything on one level, no stairs in everyday life, the garden directly at the living room, and kindergarten, school, Volg, and bus stop within a few minutes' walk: the apartment works for a family just as well as for a couple who wants to downsize from a house without giving up their own outdoor space.

The Hettlingen train station is about 1 km away. From there, the S12 and S33 trains run — Winterthur in about five minutes and Zurich in about 30 minutes, as well as the SN3 night connection. Zurich Airport is about 15 km away. You can also reach the Oberohringen motorway exit in about 5 minutes.
