luxury villas for sale Munich, Germany

Villa Schwalten, a masterpiece of architecture, was built between 1910 - 1912 by the Munich star architect, artist, designer and inventor of Art Nouveau, Dr. C. Riemerschmid, and served as his private residence. For years, Dr. Riemerschmid searched for a piece of land that corresponded to his ideal: a quiet, wide area, far away from the railroad and lively road traffic and yet quickly connected to the towns of Kempten and Füssen; in addition, a lake for swimming and fishing as an invigorating element of the surrounding area. This is how Schwalten near Füssen came into being. The house was to be completely adjusted in its situation and plant to the enjoyment of the marvelous area. It leans against the north side, which cannot be seen, and opens up to the south and east to the wide, varied view of the foothills of the Alps, the mountains and the lake. The elevated position, the gradual slope, gave rise to terraces. Their wide lines lead the building into the landscape and anchor it in it. From the hall in front of the house or even the spacious terrace, one can enjoy the wide, unobstructed view over the pond to the Allgäu mountains. A band of richly blooming geraniums encircles the wall crown and lends a friendly touch to its weatherproof roughness. Viewed from the west, the building rises energetically, preparing us for its stately unfolding as we approach. The janitor's cottage on higher ground finely fades the architecture into the landscape. The core renovation of the listed villa has begun, but much of it needs to be continued. The clear exterior corresponds to the clear disposition of the interior. As soon as you enter the villa with a living area of approximately 840m2, you get a light, spacious impression. On the right, the staircase rises to the upper floor, on the left is a small checkroom with washing facilities. Straight ahead the view and way leads into the hallway. A light latticework closes it off to the vestibule, but still allows the fullness of light to reach it from there. The room, already cozy in itself, is made warm and cuddly by the squat column. The corner space gains a special comfort from it. The vestibule is the place prepared for the best possible all-round view, the windows of which are retractable by a simple mechanism. A large living room is connected to the hall on the left and a dining room on the right. The dining room has a convenient connection with the kitchen. The kitchen is connected with a spacious servant's room. The upper floor contains the bedrooms and a cleaning room for domestic purposes, along with a terrace. Above the winter room there is a dressing room with built-in wardrobes. With its green painted fillings, it looks like a neat forecourt to the Altane with its magnificent panoramic view. To the right is the entrance to the parents' bedroom, followed by a suite of identical rooms for guests and their families. All of them have a light and airy spaciousness as well as a view of the magnificent surroundings. On the second floor there are servants' rooms with similar advantages to those enjoyed by the lordship; there is also enough space for drying rooms. Half of the house has a cellar, and a garage belongs to the villa. The annex contains a laundry room and a small workshop, a parlor for the chauffeur and enough rooms for the janitor's family. In the attic there is a room and a developed area over almost the entire floor area of the house.
