There are places where you arrive and immediately feel that the world becomes a little quieter. Places where the view stretches into the distance, everyday life no longer matters for a moment, and you can focus on the essentials again. Exactly such a place awaits you here, embedded in the impressive landscape of Appenzellerland and surrounded by nature, tranquility, and a view that makes every stay something special.
In a unique location with a view in the agricultural zone of Urnäsch, this charming 3.5-room weekend house presents itself as a personal retreat for all those who want to escape the hectic everyday life and spend their free time where relaxation really means relaxation. On a plot of land with over 4,000 m², you can enjoy exceptional privacy and a feeling of freedom that is rarely found today.
Already the view over the surrounding landscape to the impressive Säntis makes it clear what sets this place apart. Here, the morning begins with tranquility and a wide view, while in the evening the last sunbeams move over the mountains. No urban noise, no hectic pace - instead, nature, wide open spaces, and the feeling of being able to simply switch off for a weekend.
In the warm months, life moves outdoors. A special highlight is the exceptionally designed swimming pond. Thanks to its thoughtful, natural construction, it cleans itself to a large extent and does not require any additional technical or chemical aids. Surrounded by greenery and with a view of the Appenzeller mountains, a jump into the water becomes a very special experience. Afterwards, you can warm up in the sun, enjoy the tranquility, and gather new energy for everyday life.
But this retreat does not only unfold its charm in summer. When a white blanket covers the landscape in winter and tranquility slowly sets in outside, the weekend house shows itself from a particularly cozy side. While the flames crackle in the fireplace, you can enjoy the view out into the snowy mountain world with a good glass of wine. The house's own sauna rounds off the feel-good experience and makes the property a retreat for every season.
Another special feature of the extensive property is the additional blockhouse. Although it cannot be used for residential purposes, it offers a variety of possibilities for individual use. Whether as a hobby room, creative retreat, workshop, or space for personal projects - here, ideas can emerge and imagination can find its space.
The property's own water source also underlines the special and original character of this estate. Together with the generous land, the natural swimming pond, and the exceptional view, a overall picture emerges that goes far beyond a classic weekend house.
The property has been continuously maintained and cared for over the years. Among other things, the roof was renewed and insulated, which preserved the original character of the house and at the same time invested in its value retention. Two garage spaces complement the offer and provide the desired comfort even when arriving.
This weekend house is not a place for people who are just looking for four walls. It is a place for people who appreciate freedom, nature, and tranquility. For long summer evenings by the water, snowy winter days by the fireplace, sauna sessions after a day in nature, and those quiet moments when all you need is the view of the mountains.
