Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

We've got a wonderful almost 120 years old house, located in one of the nicest streets of Vegesack. While enjoying the amenities of a reconstruction, we also tried to keep its lovely, old atmosphere by letting all the stylistic features of the beginning 20th century remain inside. A special feature is the spacious hall on both floors and the conservatory. The big and slightly wild garden is perfect for relaxation and playing. Although we share the garden with our tenants who rent the bungalow behind our house, there is enough space for everyone.

Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Our house is centrally located. Within 5 walking minutes you reach the center of Vegesack with shopping possibilities, cafes and restaurant. Every two days there is a farmers market that offers a wide range of greens, meat, fish, flowers and seasonal goods. Our neighborhood is changing. While there are still many elder people, young families with kids are slowly occupying the houses around. There is a kindergarten, a school and two churches close by. The train station is also in walking distance. So if Vegesack gets to small you can explore downtown of Bremen which takes just 16 minutes by train. There are many parks, play grounds and a public indoor swimming pool close by.

Attractions

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

I love shopping at the farmers market or visiting the Overbeck museum as well as some of the nice restaurants and cafes in town. Relaxing is a walk along the rivers Lesum or Weser. The Lesum flows into the river Weser in Vegesack that's why the river is especially wide and picturesque here. If you like watching big ships you can stroll along the “Stadtgarten” or sit at the “Utkiek” enjoying a glass of Wine or a beer. If you rather prefer a big city flair theaters and bigger museums you should visit the city of Bremen or Bremerhaven.

Our Preferences

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules

We would like you to care about our house as if it were yours. You can use everything there is but handle everything with care and look things up in an operating manual if you aren't sure how to use them. Don't let gadgets run if you aren't at home. Leave the house in the same condition in which you found it and the most important: feel at home.
