Idyllic country house: fireplace, pool & loft vibes

360 m² country house on the grounds of a former manor, about 30 minutes from Leipzig. The house can accommodate up to 8 guests – with four bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a large kitchen, a private seasonal pool and about 3,000 m² of garden. The centerpiece is the extraordinary barn loft with exposed roof structure, spacious living area and fireplace. Plenty of space for families and friends, evenings together at the long table, summer days by the pool, and quiet weekends in the country. The space The approximately 360 m² country house combines the historic main house with a former barn that has been elaborately converted. It offers plenty of space for up to eight guests and is particularly suitable for families or getaways with friends. Main house On the ground floor, there is a spacious kitchen with a dining area, a double bedroom with a cot and a built-in wardrobe, an en suite shower room, and a guest toilet. Upstairs, there are two more bedrooms – one with a double bed and one with two single beds – as well as a bathroom with a bathtub. Barn loft The architectural centerpiece of the house is the former barn with an open attic and exposed structure. Here you will find the spacious living and dining area with fireplace, as well as a separate sleeping alcove with a double bed in the upper area. Another shower room is on the lower level. Garden and pool The house includes about 3,000 m² of garden with a private pool (glass cover), a sun terrace, a fire pit, and play areas for children. Two vehicles can be parked under the carport. The pool is not fenced. Children should therefore only be in the garden and at the pool under supervision. The pool enclosure allows the pool season to be extended, depending on the weather. However, the heated outdoor pool remains weather-dependent, so no specific water temperature can be guaranteed. Location The house is quietly located in the Leipzig countryside, with no through traffic. Leipzig can be reached in about 30 minutes by car. The surrounding area includes the Leipzig Neuseenland, Rochlitz Castle, Colditz Castle, and numerous opportunities for biking, hiking, and swimming. Geithain train station is also easily accessible and offers train connections to Leipzig and Chemnitz. Great to know Bed linen and towels are included. Amenities include WiFi, a smart TV, air conditioning, a washing machine, a crib, a high chair, and a fully equipped kitchen. Overall, the location is very quiet; there are occasional noises from the surrounding area (e.g. farming or a railway line in the distance). Guest access • When booking, of course, all indoor and outdoor areas are completely at your disposal or depending on the season. If you have any questions, we are happy to help. Safety: The pool is not secured by a gate or similar, and there are bodies of water in the area. Please supervise children in the outdoor area accordingly.
