19th-century estate at the foot of a castle
Situated in Lorentzen, next to a 14th-century castle, a barn and an 18th-century mill, just 3 minutes from Diemeringen and 10 minutes from Sarre-Union, this character property with its listed façade and roof embodies the timeless elegance of Alsace’s heritage. Dating back to 1808, this house steeped in history spans a generous 250 m², set in 1.3 hectares of private grounds.
Entirely redesigned over the last eight years, the renovation has been carried out with the utmost care to preserve every period architectural detail, while incorporating modern comforts. Right from the entrance, the tone is set: cement tiles, period mouldings and through-views create an authentic, refined atmosphere. The ground floor is home to a country-style dining kitchen, where the elaborate baseboards, painted wooden ceiling, antique fireplace and solid parquet flooring harmoniously combine. The dining room, with its tiled stove and herringbone parquet flooring, continues the warm ambience. A lounge with herringbone parquet flooring and views over the garden, a cloakroom, a storeroom adjoining a vaulted cellar and a laundry room complete this level.
The central staircase in light oak, enhanced by fine metalwork, leads upstairs.
This level houses a vast master bedroom with a dressing area and panoramic views over the green surroundings, as well as five other bedrooms, including one with a study area and a shower room. A second staircase gives access to 175 m² of attic space with great potential for conversion.
Outside, the property has vast grounds that could be used for a variety of projects, including holiday lets, accommodating horses or organising events in a bucolic setting with a view of Lorentzen castle. The natural surroundings give the site a feeling of absolute tranquillity, without being isolated.
On the technical side, the renovation included a complete overhaul of the electrical installation and a high-performance, energy-efficient pellet-fired central heating system installed in 2018, guaranteeing comfort and energy efficiency.
A subtle blend of historic cachet and potential for a host of projects, this singular residence will win you over with the quality of its restoration and the generosity of its volumes. A rare property, ideal for a living or hospitality project in a unique heritage setting, complemented by a cellar, garage and two parking spaces.
