Description
Elgg is one of the six historic Zürcher Landstädtchen and delights with its unique village center, lively club life, and a special atmosphere. In the center is the listed Haus Meise – a property with an extraordinary history and impressive appearance. The house was extensively renovated in 1986 with great respect for its historical building substance. Today, it combines the charm of past centuries with the demands of modern living. The Heimatschutzvereinigung Elgg is committed to preserving this special building with much dedication and great effort. The attached photos give a first impression – but the true effect of this apartment can hardly be captured in pictures. Whoever enters the rooms immediately feels their unique character. A non-binding visit is therefore worthwhile in any case. The location also leaves little to be desired. Shopping facilities, restaurants, and cafes are located directly in front of the house door. During the summer months, the popular weekly market takes place on the Meisenplatz, and numerous village events ensure a lively togetherness throughout the year. At the same time, you can reach the forest and nature in a few minutes, which invite you to take walks and relax. The idyllic swimming pool is also within walking distance – in case the village fountain doesn't provide the necessary cooling. Whether home office, shared accommodation, family, or single person – this apartment offers space for different lifestyles. What matters to us is something else: We are looking for people who appreciate the special, have fun with historical architecture, and are aware that they are living in a valuable building monument. Whoever takes care of this unique home will find a place to live here that is rarely found today. If you're not looking for a ordinary apartment, but a place with history and character, we look forward to getting to know you.
