Beskrivelse af vores byttebolig
We are living in the most densely wooded area in Germany in a cul-de-sac road of a quiet area of a small town, however with good local infrastructure (bakery, cinema, supermarkets in walking distance) and close to the next city Siegen: 15 km and Cologne: 80 km. The area is perfect for hiking, mountain biking, running or inline skating, as our house is very close (50 meters air-line distance) to the large forest area with hiking trails, a water dam and large walking, running or MTB areas.
Our mediterranean style house offers lots of space (350 m2) and convenience as well as lots of lounging and chilling areas as we have a large balcony, a large roofed mediterranean style veranda and a large garden with a big pond. The house is build with all-natural materials, following the anthroposophical philosophy. All floors are equipped with Italian cotto floor tiles and handcrafted floor tiles (except one room with oak wood floor boards) and underfloor heating.
Details on the house layout:
- Groundfloor: Entrance, living room (ca. 70 m2) with big tiled stove, outside and inside fireplace, kitchen and dining area. From the living room you can enter the wooden deck balcony/terrace which offers a nice view on the opposite hill and the village and the woods (ca. 50 m2, wonderful barefoot friendly wood) with outdoor dining options, sunbed, and wonderful swing (roofed). From the terrace, you can enter the garage (which even offers some fitness exercise options). Additionally, you have direct access from the living room to the garden.
- Basement: 2 big offices, 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, separate toilet, laundry room with washing machine, dryer and a shower; additionally, there is a second kitchen downstairs with direct access to the large veranda (ca. 70 m2; fully roofed, thus, you can sit outside even if the weather should not be perfect) and the garden. Outside, you have dining possibilities, a lounging area with outside sofa, swing grill, sun loungers, etc. The downstairs kitchen is perfect if you want to prepare meals to eat outside.
- First Floor: 4 bedrooms (one of these bedrooms is maisonette style with corkscrew stairs leading to the sleeping area on the top floor of the house), 1 bathroom with bathtub.
- Garden: The garden is completely fenced (suitable also for small dogs). Besides the big veranda area, where you can find a wooden horse, ready for riding & playing, there is a mostly lawned area, a big trampoline (5 meters), a big pond (you can even swim if you are brave and don't mind natural pond water and lots of fishes). From the garden you have access to a small path that leads to the center of the village (with bakery, a small regional food shop, church, restaurant etc. - 5 min. walk). We also have toys, bikes, etc. in the garden, that you and your kids (if any) are invited to use.

Hvad kan vi lide eller ikke lide. Her er vores ønsker og boligregler
We would love to travel together with our dogs. Therefore, we are looking for an exchange where this is possible. Our dogs are a German Shorthair Pointer and a Mini Poodle. They both are very well-trained and very friendly and kind.
With regard to our home, for us, it is important that you take good care of our home and also of our cat. Some areas in our house need specific care (floor tiles and bathroom) and the inside of our house is a strict non-smoking area. We hope that you feel at ease and at home at our house and we trust you that you will leave it the way you found it. Dogs are welcome in our home - the garden is fenced (also suitable for small dogs). Our pond, however, is not fenced anymore. With very small kids you therefore need to be very careful.
