A home for those who seek to experience architecture, not merely admire it. Timeless design meets contemporary living comfort.
Clean architectural lines, expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, soaring ceilings, and a distinctive blend of materials create an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and inviting.
This home is a striking testament to the fact that exceptional architecture never goes out of style.
Those looking for something truly special will find it here. Designed and built in 1975 by renowned Kreuzlingen architect Ernst Oberhänsli as his own family residence, the home has evolved gracefully over the years. It has been meticulously maintained, regularly renovated, and thoughtfully modernised by its owners. Most recently, the lower ground floor was further expanded, while the beautifully landscaped outdoor areas were completely redesigned.
The home’s technical infrastructure has also been brought fully up to date, ensuring modern performance without compromising its architectural integrity.
The building’s sculptural form is one of its defining architectural features.
A striking circular tower element, housing the staircase and clad in light-coloured brick, is seamlessly integrated with clean, cubic volumes and a dark façade. Extensive photovoltaic arrays across the roof surfaces emphasise the property’s sustainable, forward-looking design while complementing its distinctive architectural character.
