Description
This lovely 7.5-room semi-detached house gives the impression of being a boat at sea, while having a manageable garden and two large terrace spaces to complement it.
The entrance opens to a foyer, with built-in closets and plenty of space for seating, and from there into the sleeping area of the house. The ground floor level could provide a total of four spacious bedrooms, all with direct access to the garden and sharing two good-sized bathrooms.
Floor-to-ceiling windows in the living and master area reveal fantastic views of Lake Zürich, and the well-planned layout will offer the new owners plenty of flexibility in allocating the generous number of rooms. The very spacious (64 sqm) south-facing terrace, just off the kitchen, allows for al fresco dining, while the terrace outside the master boasts incredible views of Lake Zürich and the Alps.
In the basement, there is a 40-sqm recreation room with underfloor heating, a decent ceiling height and natural light. This area could be used in a variety of ways, such as a gym, playroom/games room, man cave, screening room, wine cellar, or workshop. With the downstairs bathroom next door, it could also become a very generous guest bedroom.
Two good-sized garage spaces with direct access to the property complete this offering.
