Architect's house in the volcanic crater with breathtaking view

In the middle of a volcanic crater, Sabine and Olaf's self-designed architect's house is situated on a 1,150 m² natural plot. With breathtaking views and an incomparable atmosphere, this vacation home is a dream for nature lovers.

The core as well as the façade, the terrace and most of the interior fittings are made of high-quality wood. Natural materials were also used for the rest of the construction to ensure a healthy and pleasant climate in the house. The natural wood shutters not only serve as sun protection, but also create a cozy atmosphere. Thanks to the solid construction and the use of sustainable materials, the house stays cool in summer even without air conditioning, while in winter the wood-burning stove and underfloor heating provide cozy warmth.

On the first floor is the 5.5 m high living room, which forms the center of the house and includes an open kitchen, a dining area and access to the gallery in the attic. A bedroom with a double bed and a view of the valley as well as a bathroom with shower and sauna are also located on the lower floor. A second bedroom with two single beds can be found on the gallery above the study. You can admire the clear starry sky of the Volcanic Eifel at night through the skylight.

In addition to three terraces, the vacation home also has a meadow area with a hammock. Here you can enjoy nature and the tranquillity of the surroundings to the full, while a few deer pass by from time to time.

There are many activities you can do in the surrounding area. A ski resort is only 20 minutes away by car. There are also various maars close to the house, including the volcanic lake and the Pulvermaar, where you can even swim. Hikers also get their money's worth in this incomparable landscape.
