Description
A home with history, ideal for couples or small families Welcome to Ebmatingen on the Greifensee
This special Riegelhaus from 1822, which was renovated in 1982, is located in a quiet area in Ebmatingen, near the Greifensee.
Today, this house offers a home for a couple or a small family, who value peace, nature and a living space with character.
With two bedrooms, a lawn and a renovated attic, which is very suitable as a bedroom or retreat, the house offers enough space for a shared life and individual retreats.
The walls & floors are not always straight, the structures are different, authentic and honest.
The garden complements the house in a natural way. It is suitable for a vegetable garden as well as for spending time outdoors with family and friends, a place for long evenings, conversations, shared cooking and being together.
With targeted renovation work the house can be further developed and adapted to today’s needs without losing its historical character.
Ideal for people who enjoy preserving the existing and at the same time creating something new.
The location combines peace and nature with good accessibility to the city. Walks, relaxation and the Greifensee are nearby – and yet you are quickly back in the urban life.
This house is suitable for people,
- who appreciate and pass on history
- who choose character over perfection
- who are looking for a home with soul

A house with levels – Space for living
The ground floor houses the cellar and a spacious room with direct access to the garden. This area offers many possibilities:
- a quiet home office
- a music room
- a guest room
Or perhaps a creative retreat. The connection to the garden makes this room feel open and lively – ideal for those who want to combine work and living.
Living level – the heart of the house
The spiral staircase leads to the living room. This is where a feeling of security and comfort is created. The various structures, the proximity of the rooms and the manageable size create a special atmosphere.
From here, you can directly access the veranda – a protected spot for a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening.
The kitchen and a bathroom are located on the same level. The paths are short, the living space is compact and close.
Upper floor – Retreat under the roof
The upper floor can be used as a bedroom.
The converted attic space offers additional potential: a further bathroom could be created here with relatively little effort. This would create a private sleeping area with its own great bathroom – a lovely retreat under the roof.
The garden – small, beautiful, full of possibilities
The garden is deliberately compact and therefore easy to maintain. At the same time, it offers enough space for:
- a few raised beds with your own vegetables
- a table for evening gatherings
- or simply a place to relax and unwind
This is not about perfection or large areas. It’s about quality of life.
