The Equestrian Facility – Professional, Versatile, and Ready to Use
Spanning approximately 8 hectares, this equestrian facility is a rare find of its kind. At its heart is a modern indoor arena (25 × 50 m, built in 2013), which offers optimal training conditions year-round. Currently designed for Western riding, the facility can be easily adapted to other disciplines such as dressage, show jumping, or eventing with minimal effort.
A particular highlight is the fully integrated riding lounge, which serves as a gathering place for riders and guests and creates a unique atmosphere. The spectator balcony offers a perfect view of the action—ideal for lessons, events, or competitions.
The riding facility is complemented by a spacious outdoor arena (28.5 × 90 m), which is suitable for both advanced training and competitions.
The stable facility is fully equipped and offers space for approximately 30 horses. It stands out for its well-designed layout and flexible usage options: A total of 14 indoor stalls are available, including 3 foaling stalls with camera surveillance, 9 paddock stalls, and 2 open stables (1 of which has direct access to the paddock). The facility is complemented by 7 large outdoor sand paddocks as well as covered paddock areas. Spacious, directly adjacent paddock areas offer optimal conditions for keeping, training, and breeding.
Another key feature is the facility’s well-designed security system. The entire property is secured by a gate system with license plate recognition, allowing for targeted access control. In addition, central areas such as the indoor riding arena, courtyard, and stables are under video surveillance. This system not only ensures a high level of security but also builds trust—for both the operators and the boarders and customers.
Efficiency & Structure – Cost-Effective and Future-Proof!
The entire facility is compact and logically designed, with short distances and clear workflows that significantly simplify daily operations. This allows the farm to be run efficiently with relatively few staff—a decisive economic advantage.
In addition, THE RANCH stands out for its sustainable energy concept: The farm’s own meadows are used for hay production, while its own forest supplies wood chips for heating. A wood pellet heating system, a photovoltaic system, a heat pump for the pool, and a separate heat pump for the horse shower ensure largely self-sufficient and cost-efficient operation. Hot water is additionally heated using oil.
The Residence – Spaciousness, Ambience, and Maximum Flexibility
Located directly on the inner courtyard, with a view of the entire property yet completely private, the residence offers a stylish retreat. The building, which underwent a comprehensive renovation in 2011 (the original structure dates from the 1980s), now combines rustic charm with modern living comfort and high-quality craftsmanship.
Spanning approximately 319 square meters of living and usable space, the property features a spacious floor plan that is currently used as a single unit but can easily be divided into two separate living units, each with its own entrance.
The entryway leads directly into a light-filled kitchen and dining area with direct access to the terrace and pool. Large windows create an open, inviting atmosphere—a central space for shared living and social gatherings. A guest bathroom, along with direct access to the garage and laundry room, ensures a particularly practical daily routine, especially when combined with the use of the courtyard.
The centerpiece of the home is the impressive living area with its exposed roof trusses, visible wooden beams, and generous ceiling heights. Large skylights flood the room with light, while the fireplace creates a warm, cozy atmosphere. Two entrances to the terrace harmoniously connect the indoor and outdoor spaces.
An elegant, country-style staircase leads up to the open gallery, which not only offers a striking view into the living area but also opens up additional possibilities for use. From here, another living area unfolds, which can be used as a separate unit—featuring an office, a separate kitchen, a balcony, two bedrooms, and a spacious bathroom. An additional guest room with its own bathroom perfectly complements this area.
A separately accessible apartment with its own bathroom and kitchenette offers maximum flexibility—whether as staff housing, a guest area, or for rental.
The property has a total of 6 garage spaces as well as additional parking spaces in the courtyard, providing ample room for vehicles, horse trailers, and equipment.
Wellness & Quality of Life – A Place to Call Home
The outdoor area also highlights the unique character of this property. The spacious terrace is perfect for relaxing summer evenings, while the year-round pool with a retractable roof, the sauna, and the hot tub ensure the utmost comfort. A pool house completes the ensemble, transforming the garden into a true oasis of well-being.
