Property description

Historic detached house with attached barn in the village of Orferode, approx. 4 km from Bad Sooden-Allendorf and well connected to local infrastructure. The two-storey building of timber-frame construction dates from approx. 1900 and stands on a 446 m² corner plot in a central village location on the Hauptstraße.

The ground floor comprises a living room, bathroom, boiler room and storage area with a living area of approx. 54.5 m². The upper floor offers two further rooms with approx. 54.5 m² of living area. The attic is not converted. An attached barn currently serves as storage and garage space. The property is currently vacant and uninhabitable.

The building shows considerable need for refurbishment: render damage and damp damage to the façade, defects in the roof covering, and a large maintenance backlog in all trades. The listed-building (Denkmalschutz) status of the property requires refurbishments subject to approval using materials appropriate to heritage protection.
