A gem in Kronberg im Taunus - renowned for its English heritage near Frankfurt am Main
The beautiful and remarkable 500-year-old listed property occupies a prestigious hillside location near Kronberg Castle on the edge of the historic old town.
Kronberg's unique English character dates back to Empress Frederick, whose former widow's residence is now one of Germany's finest luxury castle hotels.
A beautiful rose-covered archway could welcome you to the exceptional home.
Original architectural features - including the historic entrance door together with its centuries old lock and magnificent hand-forged key, traditional tiled floors, and a solid oak staircase - preserve the home's authentic character. Built with natural, healthy materials, the little estate is a protected cultural landmark of exceptional quality.
The garden behind the main house is the perfect setting for dinner in the evening sun with a view to Kronberg Castle, accompanied by a fine bottle of wine from your own charming, vaulted wine cellar - a small fountain or ornamental fishpond could add to the romantic atmosphere.
From the attic, you can enjoy beautiful views of Frankfurt's iconic and futuristic skyline.
The small estate - surrounded by mainly distinctive historic stone paving - can be carefully restored - but it doesn't have to be. It is ready to be enjoyed as it stands while offering excellent potential for expansion.
This charming historic residence offers exceptional versatility and would be perfectly suited e.g. as a private home for a single person, a couple, a family, or as an elegant weekend retreat.
Residents enjoy an outstanding combination of culinary experiences, cultural highlights, and fine shopping opportunities, owing to its proximity to Frankfurt.
Kronberg is furthermore surrounded by the beautiful landscapes of the Taunus, a scenic low mountain range offering nature. Kronberg is also home to an extraordinary zoo featuring an impressive collection of animals from around the world.
The region is among the most sought-after residential areas in the Frankfurt metropolitan region in Germany for a more secluded lifestyle.
