luxury house for sale Oersberg, Germany

Originally built around 1670 and expanded into its present-day mansion form by master builder Tobias Wendler between 1765 and 1768, Gut Toestorf boasts a one-storey brick construction with a hipped roof. In 1806, it was granted the privilege of being an aristocratic estate. The property for sale, with approximately 1050 m² of living space, is situated in a secluded location offering expansive views of the stunning landscape from a courtyard island of medieval origin. Surrounding the mansion is a wide moat lined with ancient trees and an adjoining natural forest. The ground floor of this estate was once used as a prestigious auction house and features spacious and elegant rooms ideally suited for a variety of purposes. The library, formerly the auction room, impresses with its generous proportions and appealing historical ambiance. With its characteristic architecture and atmosphere, this space is perfect for events, conferences, exhibitions, or auctions. Other potential uses can also be envisioned for this property, subject to approval. The broad building, with a vaulted cellar extending beneath the entire structure, is distinguished by an impressive high mansard roof. The courtyard side features a two-storey central projection, its central axis emphasized by a round-arched portal accessible via a staircase. The entrance front, with its grand staircase, showcases a two-storey, gable-roofed central projection of three bays. During the monument-conserving renovation in the mid-1990s, every effort was made to preserve the original state of the interior. The resulting spatial experience is impressive, and thanks to the extensive renovation work, historical architectural culture and contemporary living standards are harmoniously combined. The large vestibule with its concave rear wall and fireplace, the historical stuccowork, and many other details embody the history of the house. Complementing the mansion, there is a separate, spacious apartment in the adjacent building ideal for guests, staff, or multi-generational living. An intact and stylish estate with a mansion in such an attractive location is rarely offered in the most beautiful state of the republic. Recognized as a historically significant property, the Toestorf Manor House was featured in the book Manor Farms and Manor Houses in Schleswig-Holstein on pages 582-583 and described in detail. The property is not only a listed building but has also been awarded a certificate of honor by monument preservation.
