Plot and natural pond – a nature refuge with diverse usage possibilities The property includes 3,874 m² of land and thus offers exceptionally much space for people who want to live close to nature – be it with small animals, chickens, goats, cats, dogs (also ideal for dog breeders), a spacious vegetable garden, or a self-sufficiency project. The extensive plot area allows for different uses: from fenced animal areas to fruit and berry plantations to permaculture elements or a large family garden. A special highlight is the approximately 670 m² large, protected natural pond with impressive plant diversity. The pond is part of the supralocal nature conservation object "Pond and Hangried in Neutal" (object number 18) and is located in private ownership – a natural jewel whose care is supported by the canton. It creates a unique microclimate, attracts dragonflies, frogs, and rare bird species, and offers an atmosphere that can otherwise only be found in nature reserves. Directly adjacent lies the undevelopable agricultural zone with an unobstructed view of the Glarus Alps. This open environment not only ensures peace and privacy but also makes the property particularly attractive for animal husbandry and nature-related projects. An own spring on the property also opens up additional potential – be it for garden irrigation, pond maintenance, or sustainable usage concepts. Location – nature paradise in front of the door The property is located in one of the most beautiful hiking areas of the Zürcher Oberland, characterized by rivers, streams, and small waterfalls. Only about 1,900 m above is the popular Alp Scheidegg , the highest restaurant in the canton of Zurich – with spectacular views of Lake Zurich and the Alps, as well as a starting point for paragliders. Despite its natural location, shopping facilities, schools, public transport, and medical care are easily accessible. The perfect balance between peace, nature, and everyday practicality. Conclusion This single-family house is much more than just a residential building – it is a retreat with character , embedded in a unique natural setting. The combination of a large plot, protected natural pond, unobstructed view, renovated building envelope (2010), construction according to Minergie standard, and diverse usage possibilities makes this property a unique opportunity in the Zürcher Oberland .
