Art Nouveau villa in the heart of Balingen
This imposing - listed - Art Nouveau villa in the heart of Balingen was built in 1913 as a single-storey rendered building on a high plinth, with a bay window, hipped roof and dwarf houses. If these walls could speak, they would certainly tell many interesting stories, as the building owner was none other than Wilhelm Wrner, Balingen's chief architect at the time. Art Nouveau, as the French called it, placed great emphasis on the decoration of surfaces, ornamentation, materials and fine frames. The aim of Art Nouveau was to combine architecture and craftsmanship to create a complete work of art. As soon as you open the door, you are greeted by this total work of art and the unique character that surrounds this house. In keeping with the Art Nouveau style, the property is very spacious and stately. Dark wood, classic tiles, elegant parquet flooring, tasteful wallpaper, high ceilings with subtle stucco and the old wooden doors and skirting boards create a unique and special ambience for you as the owner and your future guests. The villa comprises a total of approx. 351m of living space with 11 rooms on 4 floors. In the basement there is also a large office and an adjoining meeting room, which makes it possible to work in the house. Access for visitors or clients is possible via the separate rear entrance. The outdoor areas on the 1,122 m plot have also been lovingly landscaped and blend perfectly into the overall picture. A nostalgic fountain and stylish, multi-flame ball lanterns adorn the attractively planted garden as a special feature. The faade is structured by the use of clinker and rendered surfaces and filigree mullioned windows. This creates an appealing, high-quality and slightly playful appearance that is typical of the Art Nouveau style. If you are fascinated by expressive old buildings from the Art Nouveau period and value exclusivity and uniqueness, you are sure to fall in love with this gem!
