About this property

living in a straw house

  • Barrier-free straw bale house in the Gesundland Vulkaneifel region, situated on a crater rim plateau by the Pulvermaar maar lake in a small holiday home area. Uniquely built with 1.35 m thick straw bale walls, finished with clay plaster inside and lime plaster outside, this creates a high-quality living environment with passive house standards. This means: Gesundland Vulkaneifel by day, straw bale house by night = 24-hour health benefits!

    Two bedrooms, some with electrically adjustable slatted bed bases; living room with double sofa bed, satellite TV, Wi-Fi, integrated kitchen with dining area.

    Two shower rooms with WC; washing machine and dryer in the utility room.

    All floors are natural wood. Large southwest-facing windows create a bright, welcoming, and warm atmosphere. The spacious terrace with garden furniture and sunshade is directly accessible from the living room and bedrooms. Barrel sauna next to the terrace.
