About this dream house

Property Description

This impressive half-timbered house, an early frame building, stands out on Alsfeld's market square not only architecturally but also historically. Located directly on the prominent corner of Obergasse and Markt, the building is closely related to the famous town hall and has a similarly elaborate late Gothic design. It would stand to reason that the master builder who created the town hall also designed Markt 4. With its detailed half-timbering, richly decorated parapet panels and its striking round bay window that juts out into the market square, the building embodies an architectural art all of its own and is a jewel of the old town.

The property has been continuously owned by a family of entrepreneurs since 1966 and is now being offered for sale. The possible uses are varied and offer potential for both commercial and private use.

The first floor of the building serves as a cultural meeting point and gastronomic venue for visitors and locals. With around 103 m² of usable space and large, double-leaf doors, the area allows direct interaction with guests enjoying the sun and atmosphere on the market square. The unit was originally a bank branch and is currently in operation as an ice cream parlor - ideal for a café or catering establishment.

The second floor offers four rooms on approx. 123 m² as well as a kitchen, a small bathroom and other ancillary rooms. The layout and the spacious rooms are ideal for an office, as most recently used by an architectural firm, or as a stylish apartment.

There are two separate residential units on the second floor: a two-room apartment (approx. 52 m²) and a three-room apartment (approx. 72 m²). Both are let on long-term leases and offer solid development potential in this sought-after city center location.

The top floor houses a spacious three-room apartment (approx. 111 m²), which is currently used in conjunction with the first floor unit. There are also staff areas such as toilets and a lounge here - an advantage for operators in the catering sector or for larger residential communities.

Beneath the building is a spacious vaulted cellar that covers around half of the building's floor plan. This area offers storage space and a boiler room, which is particularly advantageous for commercial or catering use.
