Best of 2021: New entries in Germany, Austria, Switzerland
As every year, at the beginning of January we publish the holiday domiciles that our readers particularly liked last year. The ranking is determined by how often a post was read.
In the third part of our Best of series you will find the most popular new houses in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
The most popular new domiciles in Germany, Austria and Switzerland:
Selma is enthroned like a peep box on a slope in Gehlberg, the highest mountain village in the Thuringian Forest. The wooden cube presents the nature of the UNESCO biosphere reserve in widescreen format.
You could almost mistake the house in the village of Matzwitz, situated in the hinterland of Hohwachter Bucht (Hohwacht Bay), for a barn – if it weren’t for the oversized window that gives it an extravagant touch!
Baltic Sea and Bodden, art and culture! Besides its natural beauty, the Fischland-Darß-Zingst peninsula offers a wide variety of cultural attractions: from the galleries at the Ahrenshoop artists’ colony to the Darß Nature Film Festival and the Photo Festival in Zingst.
The name of the house is also the description of its location: the vacation home Maison Südpfalz is located only 20 kilometres from the French border on the Southern Wine Route in the village of Klingenmünster.
Minimalism in a former glass grinding and polishing factory: in Murnthal in the Upper Palatinate Forest Nature Park, the two puristically and stylishly furnished Mittermurnthal holiday apartments invite you to take a break.
Raised on the slope on concrete supports, yellow window frames and an unconventional roof: Bleibe Menzenschwand demonstrates the courage to be individual. The holiday home sits on a steep western slope in Menzenschwand, a district of St. Blasien in the southern Black Forest.
Relaxing or working in the rural seclusion of the Uckermark – both is possible at Studio Uckermark. The former stable is surrounded by the rolling meadows of a former farmstead with buildings enclosing a central yard on three sides.
The Collage holiday home illustrates the potential that an ageing house from the 1970s can offer. Situated in a holiday village in Bernau, a town in the Black Forest, the house has been transformed into a contemporary, modern holiday home.
Right in the middle of vibrant Cologne and yet in a quiet location – the statthaus is located in a small side street in Cologne’s traditional Gereonsviertel district, with the cathedral in sight and within walking distance.
Farmhouse reloaded: In the Upper Bavarian town of Marquartstein, Philipp Möller Architekten have refurbished a farm ensemble and converted it into three individual residential units.
A historical patrician house in the small town of Lahr in Baden on the edge of the Black Forest redefines itself as a stylish guesthouse with holiday apartments and event location.
The art scene and industrial heritage are closely intertwined in Leipzig – a fact that guests can experience in the loft named Atelier Dietzold. The holiday apartment is located in an old factory building, the former Dietzoldwerke in the west of the city.
Haus am Kellersee is a Wilhelminian-style villa situated directly on the shore of the second-largest lake in Holstein Switzerland. Situated on the edge of a forest between Eutin and the spa town of Malente, the villa from 1910 has been extensively refurbished and converted.
Architectural adventure: Casa Tessino in the jungle-like Onsernone Valley is an experimental, minimalist place with its own treehouse studio, offering a truly harmonious experience with nature.
Organic forms, panoramic windows and inserted alcoves – coming to rest has many faces. From the English coast to the Cyclades: welcome to eight very different bedrooms.
Nordic by nature: in the village of Vollerwiek, where the vastness of the marsh meets the Wadden Sea World Heritage Site, a wooden bungalow stretches out into the greenery. Functional, warm and filled with light.
Denharten is a place that leaves no guest untouched. At the listed four-sided farmstead in Rottal-Inn in Lower Bavaria, you can think, retreat or celebrate together, far away from the hustle and bustle of the world.
