Property description:
Living in a 6 ½-room house on around 270m2 of living space, a renovated farmhouse with a loft-like character (3 enclosed bedrooms, the rest of the space is open-plan) in the municipality of Rickenbach/ZH. The property was completely renovated in 2010, with attention paid to preserving the original old building.

Floor plans
Ground floor: You enter the house through the main entrance, which is preceded by a small front garden with seating, after which you can sit down. A modern front door provides security and can be opened with a fingerprint and/or a numerical code. You enter the corridor, which is covered with fine stone tiles. Under the stairs you can install your dresser or wardrobe. Next to the corridor is the entrance to the very large kitchen/dining area. The kitchen is top-of-the-line, with a large island with a sink that can be walked around, a steamer, an oven, a glass ceramic induction cooker, a teppanyaki grill, a large refrigerator, a dishwasher and plenty of storage space. The living area is accessed through the kitchen, from which you can take a few steps up to the very large living room with high ceilings. This is a comfortable place to relax.
On the same floor is the former old farm kitchen, which has been converted into a laundry room, where there is a washing machine and tumble dryer. From there it is also possible to heat the tiled stove, which is located in the kitchen near the dining area. It is also possible to bake bread and pizza in it.
Next to the laundry room is a wet room with a bath/toilet and a sink. Another entrance, or exit, to the house is between the laundry room and the wet room. A cat flap has also been installed there.
From the main entrance you can take the stairs to the upper floor.
Upper floor: Here are two closed bedrooms of above-average size, a very large entrance hall that can be used as an open workspace or additional living space, for example. The floors in the rooms and the entrance hall are covered with easy-care laminate. There is also a large wet room on this floor with a shower/double sink and toilet, which could be furnished further, for example with a dresser, etc.
A staircase leads to the attic floor.
