This charming little vacation villa is perfect for a year-round getaway in the southern Waldviertel region. The vacation home is about a 1-minute walk from the local swimming pond (with a beach, pond-side café, and recreational facilities). The town center is also within easy walking distance (shopping, coffeehouses, restaurants, a bank, a hair salon, etc.). Beautiful hiking trails and mountain bike routes are in the immediate vicinity, and the cross-country ski trailhead is only about 300 meters away. The Wachau World Heritage Site, with famous towns such as Dürnstein, Weißenkirchen, Spitz, Krems, and Melk—along with their excellent restaurants and countless wine taverns—is ideal for culinary and cultural excursions year-round. The house itself features a large, fenced-in garden with a south-facing terrace, a play/sunbathing area, and a small playhouse for children. A total of three bedrooms with double beds are available for up to 6 guests. A small, sunny kitchen-diner with a dining area and a stovetop is perfect for breakfast. Directly across from the kitchen are the cozy living room and a dining room. A small sunroom on the first floor is perfect for cozy reading. Well-behaved pets are welcome. The Ottenschlag vacation home consists of two levels and a basement, which features a sauna, shower, and washing machine. On the first floor, the entryway with the coat rack leads to a cozy dining room, which is connected to the living room (TV, sofa set) via an open passageway. Directly across from it is the well-equipped kitchen (stove with oven and glass-ceramic cooktop, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, coffee makers, electric kettle, blender, toaster) with a table, seating, and a small pantry. It’s worth noting that the kitchen can also be heated using an old tabletop stove. The bathroom, which features a window, a bathtub with shower, and two sinks, is also located on this level, as is a separate walk-in restroom. A total of 3 bedrooms are located on the upper floor (3 double beds with separate mattresses), along with another restroom featuring a sink and mirror. Also on the upper floor is a sunroom that can be used as a cozy reading room (books and various games are provided). The Ottenschlag vacation home stands out for its large, quiet garden (with a patio, patio furniture, lounge chairs, a lawn for sunbathing, and a small wooden playhouse for children), which is, of course, completely fenced in.
