Description

Step outside on a Saturday morning and the air already smells like pine resin and cut grass. The Hüthum forest starts where the garden ends. There's no road noise — just wood pigeons, maybe the distant toll of a church bell from across the border, and the particular silence that only comes when you've put real distance between yourself and city life. This is Unter den Eichen 19, and once you've spent a weekend here, ordinary life feels a bit harder to go back to.

Built in 2000 using the Hebelhaus aerated concrete method — a construction technique that German builders have trusted for decades for its thermal mass and acoustic performance — the house was put up without shortcuts. The walls are solid. The roof is solid. The whole structure has that quiet heft you only notice when you stop and realize you can't hear your neighbor's television, or the rain on the roof, or the wind that's apparently been gusting all afternoon. Underfloor heating runs throughout the ground floor, which means on a grey November evening the house is warm before you've even thought to turn anything up. That kind of low-effort comfort is hard to put a price on.

At 225 square meters of living space, plus 13 square meters of internal storage and another 13 of external, the house simply doesn't run out of room. The living area is the kind of space architects draw and clients rarely get: a fully glazed façade facing the garden, French doors, a sliding panel, and the whole back wall just opens up in summer into the terrace. The light in here on a June afternoon is extraordinary — it moves across the room as the day progresses, the laurel hedges catching it differently at different hours. In winter, the same glass wall frames a garden that turns silver and still, the trees at the forest edge standing bare and dramatic against flat Rhine-country skies.

The kitchen is a Bulthaup — not an entry-level one either — fitted with high-quality appliances and connected to a utility room that handles laundry, muddy boots, and everything else that doesn't belong in the main living space. There's a dedicated office on the ground floor, which matters enormously if you're the kind of buyer who works remotely a few days a week or manages business from home. The entrance hall is proper-sized, with a cloakroom and guest WC, the kind of layout that absorbs a family arriving with bags and coats without the house feeling chaotic.

Upstairs, a gallery landing with a glass facade connects four bedrooms, a walk-in closet, and a large bathroom with both shower and bathtub, a window, natural light. Four real bedrooms. That's the detail international buyers come back to — the flexibility to host family, give kids their own space, run one room as a study, and still have a proper guest room.

The garden runs to 961 square meters in total. There's a terrace, a lawn, the laurel boundary that gives the whole plot a sense of enclosure without being hemmed in, and then the trees begin. The forest isn't a view from a distance — it's right there. The plot sits at the very edge of it, which means one side of the house has no neighbors coming, ever. Just trees. That kind of location, in this part of the lower Rhine, is genuinely rare.

Practical infrastructure is solid throughout. The double steel carport dates from 2015, wired with ceiling spotlights. There are two garden sheds — one works well as a workshop, the other for garden tools and bikes. Electrically operated shutters cover the windows. A Viessmann central heating boiler with storage tank handles hot water and heat. Hardwood window frames with insulating glazing. The house has been maintained carefully; after 25 years it still reads as well-built rather than worn.

Emmerich am Rhein itself deserves more attention than it typically gets. The Rhine promenade is genuinely good — wide, lined with terraces, the river broad and slow-moving here, barges passing with a low diesel thrum. The town market on Saturdays has proper regional produce: Niederrhein asparagus in spring, Gouda from just across the border. Speaking of which, 's-Heerenberg is literally across the border — the castle there, Huis Bergh, is one of the best-preserved medieval fortresses in the Netherlands and open to visitors year-round. The Montferland forests between Emmerich and Doetinchem are threaded with cycling routes; the Achterhoek regional network alone gives you hundreds of kilometers of marked paths through farmland and woodland. Schloss Anholt, about 25 minutes east, has a moat-surrounded park that's worth the drive in any season. Schloss Moyland, closer to Kleve, houses a significant Joseph Beuys collection and holds outdoor sculpture events in summer.

For Dutch buyers in particular, this property represents a calculation worth making seriously. Comparable detached houses with this footprint, this plot size, and this construction quality in the Arnhem or Nijmegen commuter belt regularly list at €800,000 and above. The A18 to Doetinchem takes around 20 minutes. Arnhem via the A12 is roughly 35. Amsterdam is under two hours by car, just over 90 minutes from Duisburg by train. The border here has been functionally open for decades and daily life across it is genuinely seamless for those who know the area.

As a vacation home or second residence, the property ticks every box international buyers working through due diligence tend to care about. Germany's property purchase process is transparent and well-regulated. Notarial deed transfer, land registry entry, Grunderwerbsteuer — the acquisition costs are predictable. The rental market in the lower Rhine region is stable, and a property of this size and condition would attract long-term tenants easily if rental income is part of the ownership plan.

Key features at a glance:

- 225 m² of living space on a 961 m² plot at the Hüthum forest edge
- Built in 2000 using the Hebelhaus aerated concrete method for superior insulation

- Under 20 minutes to 's-Heerenberg and the Dutch border
- Quick access to A3, A18, and A12 motorways connecting to the Netherlands and Ruhr
- Move-in ready condition with careful maintenance record throughout

This is a property you need to walk through, not just scroll past. The photographs give you the bones; the house gives you the rest — the weight of the walls, the quality of the light, the particular quiet of a forest-edge morning. Reach out through Homestra today to arrange a private viewing and experience Unter den Eichen 19 for yourself.

Stand in the kitchen on a Saturday morning and you'll understand immediately why people fall for Emmerich am Rhein. The smell of fresh bread drifts up from the Bäckerei on Reeser Straße, the Nolte kitchen catches the early light through the garden-facing windows, and somewhere a church bell counts out the hour. It's unhurried. Real. This is a town that hasn't tried to reinvent itself for tourists, and that's precisely what makes it so quietly compelling as a base for a second home in Germany's Lower Rhine region. The house on Landdrost-Blaauboer-Straße sits at the end of a calm residential street flanked by mature trees. Built in 2008 and substantially updated through 2024, the property covers 119 square metres across two full living levels, with a 391 square metre plot that gives the garden genuine breathing room. The street itself is the kind of place where neighbours wave from driveways and children cycle unsupervised. If you've been chasing that particular version of European life — the one where daily existence feels both spacious and rooted — this neighbourhood delivers it. The garden is where this property really earns its place as a vacation home or second residence. Fully enclosed, newly landscaped, and designed to be low-maintenance, it wraps around a covered terrace that you'll use in April just as readily as August. A hot tub with glass filter, UV lamp, and its own dedicated canopy sits at the back — on a clear autumn evening with a glass of Rhineland Riesling, it's an entirely different kind of evening than you'd have in a city apartment. Exterior lighting circuits, multiple power points, and a groundwater irrigation pump mean the garden keeps itself looking sharp without demanding weekends of your time. ... click here to read more

Early on a Saturday morning in Neurhede, before the rest of the household stirs, you pull on your boots and walk the gravel path to the stable. Eight horses shift and breathe in the cool Lower Saxony air. Beyond the paddock, your private five-hectare forest catches the first light filtering through the oaks. Nobody else's windows look in. No road noise. Just the soft percussion of hooves on straw and the smell of damp pine needles drifting across the yard. This is what 7 hectares of freehold German countryside actually feels like to own. Hauptstrasse 3 in Neurhede is a working estate in the best possible sense — a fully rebuilt four-bedroom detached house, a professional-grade stable complex, two-plus hectares of fenced pasture, a stone barn, and a forest that is yours to ride through, walk through, or simply let be. The house itself was comprehensively rebuilt in 1993 and is laid out across two fully independent floors, each with its own kitchen, living room, two bedrooms, and bathroom. That dual configuration is unusual and genuinely useful. It means multi-generational families can live together without living on top of each other, or the upper floor can house guests, a live-in groom, or long-term tenants while you occupy the ground level. Ground floor living centres around a generous open-plan kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is fitted with modern built-in appliances and runs in a light, neutral palette that makes the whole space feel wider than its square footage suggests. Two large bedrooms sit off the main hallway, and the ground floor bathroom covers everything you need — bathtub, separate shower, washbasin, toilet. The setup is practical without being spartan. Upstairs, the second kitchen leans into a count ... click here to read more

Picture a Sunday morning in early October. The garden is still holding onto summer's last warmth, mist sitting low over the fields just beyond the fence, and you're drinking coffee in the winter garden while the glass walls frame a view of copper-toned trees. The house is quiet. The kids are still asleep upstairs. This is what 192 square metres of well-considered German residential life feels like — and it's available right now at Karinstraße 24 in Veldhausen. Veldhausen sits within the municipality of Neuenhaus in the Grafschaft Bentheim district, a part of Lower Saxony that doesn't get nearly as much attention as it deserves. Tucked in the far west of Germany, pressed right against the Dutch border, this is a region of flat, open countryside, old mill towns, and an unhurried pace of life that's genuinely hard to find this close to two countries' worth of amenities. The Dutch city of Enschede is under 45 minutes by car. Nordhorn, the district's commercial hub, is a short drive east and offers everything from shopping along the Hauptstraße to kayaking the Vechte river on a warm afternoon. Yet back in Veldhausen itself, the streets carry mostly local traffic. It's the kind of neighbourhood where children still ride bikes to school. The house itself was built in 1975 and comprehensively renovated in 2019 — not a cosmetic refresh, but a full, high-quality overhaul that brought everything up to modern standards. Triple-glazed windows throughout. Full insulation. A heat pump paired with a boiler for hot water. Solar panels on the roof. Electric heating with modern controls. The result is a house that looks after itself, running efficiently year-round without demanding constant attention from owners who may not always be on- ... click here to read more

Step out of the rear house on a July morning and the first thing you notice is the silence. Not the silence of isolation — the silence of a garden that has been properly tended, where bees are working the flower beds and the pool water catches the early light. Papenburg's city center is a ten-minute bike ride away, but right here on Heideweg, you could easily convince yourself you're somewhere far more remote. This is a genuinely rare setup: two fully detached houses sharing one expansive plot of 3,186 square meters in northern Germany's canal city, Papenburg. You don't see this very often. Two separate rooflines, two separate front doors, one shared garden with a private swimming pool, a wooden garden house, and a party room with its own bar. The possibilities are wide open — multi-generational family base, a main residence plus a fully independent guest or rental unit, a work-from-home compound with real separation between living and office life. People spend years looking for something like this. The front house dates to 1966 and runs about 121 square meters across two floors. It's been updated thoughtfully over the years — the bathroom was redone in 2003, wall insulation added in 2009, living room windows replaced in 2011. Downstairs, you'll find a living room with a fireplace, two additional reception and dining spaces, two bathrooms, and a storage room. That fireplace matters during a Lower Saxony winter, when January temperatures hover around two degrees and the light turns a particular flat grey that photographers love. The upper floor holds three bedrooms, and there's a partial basement for the practical overflow that any real household accumulates. The rear house, built in 1997, is where the personality of t ... click here to read more

On a quiet Sunday morning at Westerende 3, the smell of fresh coffee drifts through the open kitchen while pale northern light floods through the French doors and spills across the terrace. The garden is already warm by nine. That southwest orientation means the sun follows you all day—from the terrace breakfast to the late evening glass of wine under the wooden bar house. This is what daily life actually looks like in this corner of Lower Saxony, and it's harder to leave than you'd expect. Bunde sits right at the edge of Germany, just a short drive from the Dutch border, in the Rheiderland region of East Frisia. It's not a place that ends up in travel magazines, but that's rather the point. The Dollart Bay is nearby, a tidal inlet shared between Germany and the Netherlands that draws cyclists, birdwatchers, and anyone who just wants to stand somewhere genuinely quiet and watch the sky. The Leda and Ems rivers are within easy reach for kayaking or fishing. In summer, the flat green landscape around Bunde fills with cycling routes that stretch for dozens of kilometres without a hill in sight—proper touring country. The house itself was built in 2005 and sits on a 707 m² plot. Two decades on, it's in good condition and designed to stay that way. The A+ energy label isn't a marketing detail—it reflects roof, wall, and floor insulation, double glazing, solar panels installed back in 2012, and a heat pump being added in 2025. Underfloor heating covers most of the ground floor. Energy bills here run noticeably lower than in comparable homes, which matters whether you're using this as a primary residence, a second home base near the Netherlands, or a long-term rental investment. Walk through the front door and the first thin ... click here to read more

Step outside on a Saturday morning and the air carries the faint scent of freshly cut grass from the farmlands that roll away behind the garden fence. No traffic noise. No neighbor's terrace cramping yours. Just open sky, birdsong, and the slow-moving stillness that most people spend their whole lives trying to find on vacation. This is the everyday reality at Schulstrasse 58 in Bunde — a 2021-built detached house on a 1,121-square-meter plot that gives you room to actually exhale. Built just a few years ago, the house sits at the edge of a quietly expanding residential area, which means you get the benefit of modern construction standards without the chaos of an unfinished development around you. The neighbors have settled in, the street is calm, and the plot still feels generously proportioned by any measure. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms, 152 square meters of living space, and a garden that wraps around the entire property — this is a serious amount of house for the price. Let's talk about the ground floor, because this is where daily life happens and where this home earns its keep. The living room catches afternoon light through French doors that open directly onto a covered sun terrace — covered being the operative word. German summers are glorious but unpredictable, and having a terrace you can actually use when a cloud rolls in changes everything about how you use outdoor space. The terrace looks out over the rear garden and beyond that, straight across open agricultural land. There are no other houses back there. It's a view that feels privately owned but costs nothing extra to maintain. The kitchen sits adjacent to the living room and is fitted with high-quality built-in appliances, generous counter space, and ... click here to read more

Stand at the kitchen window on a Saturday morning and watch the light roll in across the south-facing garden while the coffee brews. The village of Elten is still quiet — a dog walker passes on De Dweel, the air carries a faint green smell from the Eltenberg forest just up the hill. This is the kind of calm that people spend years searching for, and it exists here just a few minutes' drive from the Dutch border. Built in 2006 and set on a peaceful residential street in this small German-Dutch border village, this 140-square-metre semi-bungalow is the kind of property that reveals itself slowly. From the outside, it reads as a tidy, well-kept family home. Step inside, and you start doing the mental arithmetic — ground-floor bedrooms, a fully finished basement with its own bar setup, a double garage, a deep south-facing garden — and you realise there's considerably more going on here than the facade suggests. The ground floor does what the best house plans do: it gets out of your way. The living room faces the garden through generous windows, pulling daylight deep into the space throughout the afternoon and evening. An open fireplace anchors the room — not decorative, genuinely useful on grey Rhine-valley winters when the temperature drops and you want a reason to stay in. The semi-open kitchen connects directly to the living area, fitted with a cooking island and built-in appliances that have been used and maintained, not just photographed. Two bedrooms sit off the ground floor alongside a full bathroom with bathtub, separate shower, and vanity — which means this house functions as a genuine single-storey home if that's how you want to live it. Upstairs, the arrangement shifts gear. A third bedroom sits here along with ... click here to read more

Step outside on a Saturday morning and the only sounds are birdsong, a distant tractor working the fields, and the faint chime of a church bell drifting over from Wielen's old village center. The air smells like cut grass and woodsmoke. The terrace catches the early sun and the coffee is already on. This is what you drove two hours from Amsterdam for. This is what you crossed the border for. Kreisstraße 12 sits in the rural fringes of Wielen, a quiet village in Germany's Grafschaft Bentheim district, right on the German-Dutch border. It's the kind of spot that people from Utrecht or Groningen or Düsseldorf spend years searching for — enough distance from the city to genuinely exhale, but close enough that you don't feel marooned. The Dutch border town of Hardenberg is about 15 minutes by car. Nordhorn, the regional hub, is under 20. Schiphol Airport is roughly two and a half hours; Eindhoven is closer to two. The geography here is almost uniquely positioned for international buyers looking for a second home in northwest Europe that actually makes logistical sense. The property itself is a detached house built in 1987, sitting on roughly 4,000 square metres of land, with 245 square metres of living space in the main house — and that figure doesn't even include the outbuilding, which adds around another 147 square metres of usable space. Five bedrooms. Two bathrooms. A garage, double carport, multiple sheds, and a large multifunctional barn that comes equipped with a bar and its own party room. Yes, really. That barn deserves its own paragraph. Built in 1998, it's the kind of structure that most buyers would spend years planning and never quite get around to building. The party room has a proper bar setup and a separate ... click here to read more

Stand in the conservatory on a Tuesday morning in October, coffee in hand, and watch the low North Sea light roll across the dike. The sheep are already out. A cyclist passes on the path below. It's quiet in that particular way that feels earned — the kind of quiet that reminds you why you left the city in the first place. This is Ditzumerverlaat, and this is exactly what 225 square metres of well-considered living space in one of Lower Saxony's most coveted coastal corners actually feels like. Set on a fully fenced 861m² plot along Achter't Verlaat, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom detached house occupies a genuinely rare position: directly adjacent to the Lower Saxony Wadden Sea National Park and the Dollard estuary, yet just over ten minutes from Bunde's supermarkets and eleven minutes from the motorway. It's the kind of location that sounds too convenient to be real, but the map doesn't lie. The Dutch border is a five-minute drive. The fishing village of Ditzum — where trawlers still come in with the tide and the locals eat Fischbrötchen by the harbour — is seven minutes away. The house itself was built between 2001 and 2010, and it shows the confident proportions of that era without any of the dated finishes. A wide central hallway anchors the ground floor, pulling natural light from multiple directions and giving the whole plan a sense of ease you don't often find in properties this size. The living room runs generous and bright, vinyl flooring underfoot that's practical without looking it, and the flow straight through to the conservatory is the detail that will make you linger. Triple-glazed, underfloor-heated, fitted with pleated sun blinds — this is not a lean-to glass box you use for three weeks a year. Loca ... click here to read more

Step outside on a Saturday morning in Uelsen and within ten minutes you're cycling along flat, well-marked trails through the Grafschaft Bentheim countryside, the smell of damp meadow grass in the air and absolutely nobody in your way. That's the quiet pleasure of this part of Lower Saxony — life moves at a pace you actually choose. And this particular house on Martin-Niemöller-Straße, all 240 square meters of it, is built for exactly that kind of living. Completed in 2008 and maintained to a genuinely high standard, the property sits on a 694-square-meter plot in a calm, well-established residential street. It doesn't announce itself with drama — it earns your appreciation slowly, room by room. The build quality is the first thing contractors notice: hardwood window frames, copper gutters and downspouts, full roof, wall and floor insulation, double glazing throughout. These aren't upgrades bolted on later. They were built in from the start. The ground floor sets the tone immediately. A wide central hallway — the kind that actually functions as an entry, not a tight corridor — branches off toward a guest WC, a large bedroom that doubles convincingly as a home office, and an adjacent room that could be converted into a full bathroom with minimal effort. For anyone thinking about long-term use, or visiting family members who prefer single-level convenience, this layout is genuinely practical, not just theoretically flexible. The kitchen, replaced entirely in 2022, runs along the rear of the house. Induction hob, designer extractor hood, integrated oven, combination microwave, fridge, dishwasher — the full set, installed as one cohesive unit rather than a collection of mismatched appliances. A separate utility room sits ... click here to read more

Step outside on a Saturday morning and the air smells like cut grass and river water. The Ems valley is quiet at this hour — just birdsong, the distant hum of a tractor somewhere toward Lathen, and the soft creak of the garden gate as you carry your coffee to the first of three terraces. This is Johannesstrasse 3, Niederlangen Siedlung, and mornings like this are what the house was built for. Constructed in 2009 to a high standard, this five-bedroom detached home sits on a generous 1,630 square metre plot in one of the most quietly underrated pockets of northwestern Germany. It's close enough to the Dutch border — about ten minutes by car — that you can drive to Ter Apel for Dutch cheese and stroopwafels before lunch, then be back in time to fire up the gas fireplace and settle into the 56-square-metre living room before the afternoon fades. That kind of easy, dual-country rhythm is a genuine lifestyle perk here, and it's one you simply don't get in more obvious destinations. The house itself is 286 square metres of well-considered interior space spread across two full living levels and an attic. On the ground floor, a broad entrance hall opens into the main living room — south-facing garden doors pull in daylight from morning to dusk, and when those doors are open in July, the line between inside and outside essentially disappears. The fitted kitchen spans 15 square metres with a central cooking island that earns its keep; this isn't a galley you squeeze past, it's a space where four people can prep a meal simultaneously without bumping elbows. A 11-square-metre utility room sits just off the kitchen with its own exterior door, which means muddy boots and wet coats from a day cycling the Ems-Radweg never make it past ... click here to read more

Nestled in a peaceful residential area, this energy-efficient semi-detached house offers a harmonious blend of modern living and natural beauty. With six spacious bedrooms and three well-appointed bathrooms, this home is a sanctuary for families seeking both comfort and sustainability.

Stand in the south-facing garden on a Saturday morning and you'll hear it — the faint lap of water against the bank, a heron lifting off the communal pond, maybe a bicycle bell from the Rheinpromenade a few minutes away. Emmerich am Rhein is one of those German Rhine towns that quietly gets on with being a very good place to live, without making a fuss about it. And this three-bedroom semi-bungalow on Adolf Tibus Strasse sits right at the calm heart of it. Built in 2004 and kept in genuinely good condition, the house covers 123 square metres of living space on a 429-square-metre plot. That plot matters. The south-facing rear garden — nine metres deep, sixteen metres wide — gets sun from midmorning until the light drops behind the rooftops in the evening. Large sliding doors from the 33-square-metre living room fold the inside and outside together, so in summer the boundary between the two pretty much disappears. Pull out the garden chairs, switch on the electric sunshade, and the terrace becomes the real living room from May through September. The ground floor is laid out intelligently for single-level living. Two bedrooms — 16 and 13 square metres respectively — sit alongside the main bathroom, which has a walk-in shower, double washbasin, designer radiator, and a second toilet. The whole ground floor runs on underfloor heating, which is the kind of thing you only notice when you're visiting a house that doesn't have it. In winter, when the Rhine mist rolls through the Lower Rhine plain and the temperatures drop into single digits, that warmth underfoot makes the house feel genuinely cosy rather than just adequately heated. The kitchen is semi-open, around 13 square metres, with a granite countertop, quality built-in ... click here to read more

Inside, the ground floor delivers 155 square metres of living space arranged around a central logic that makes daily life easy.

Stand at the kitchen window on a Saturday morning and watch the light roll in across the south-facing garden while the coffee brews. The village of Elten is still quiet — a dog walker passes on De Dweel, the air carries a faint green smell from the Eltenberg forest just up the hill.
