General Overview
Our house was built in early 2014. It's a modern house with lots of space, brightness and cosiness.
The clay plaster used in parts and a decentralized ventilation system ensure a good indoor climate.
During construction, we paid attention to healthy and environmentally friendly materials (clay plaster, no polystyrene, photovoltaic on the roof, use of well water, etc.).
We have underfloor heating and bamboo parquet for warm feet.

A good indoor climate is ensured by the clay plaster used in parts and a decentralised ventilation system.
During construction, we paid attention to healthy and environmentally friendly materials (clay plaster, no polystyrene, photovoltaics on the roof, use of well water, etc.).
The underfloor heating in combination with the bamboo parquet are very pleasant for the feet.

Neighbourhood
Our house is near by lake Markkleeberger See (250 meters). The large rooftop terrace offers a great view on the lake Markkleeberger See and the green surounding. You can make a lot of trips with the 7 bikes (1 E-Bike for adults, 3 bikes for adults, 2 for teens as well as 1 bikes for kids) to the lakes "Leipziger Neuseenland" and forests. So there are 3 other lakes in low distance (lake "Störmthaler See", "Cospudener See" and "Zwenkauer See"). You can find beautiful landscape, cosy beaches but also activity like Canoe Park (only approx. 3 km from the house, also to use for untrained) or amusement park "Belantis".
Only some footsteps away from our house there are a variety of restaurants, e.g. a Greek restaurant and an Take away and 3 more restaurants directly on the lake promenade (Italian and 2 German ones). At the lake promenade can be found also the beach, boat hire and the pier.
To the city center of Leipzig it takes only 15 min by car or 25 min by bike (8 km). To the beginning of the pubarea "Karli" you need only some minutes (4 km).
Our house is only 250 m away from Lake Markkleeberg and its beach. The 25 square metre roof terrace faces south and offers a beautiful view of the 2.5 km² Markkleeberger See, embedded in the green surroundings. With the 7 bicycles (1 adult e-bike, 3 adult bicycles, 2 youth bikes and 1 children's bike) numerous excursions can be made in the varied surroundings of the Leipzig New Lakeland. There are 3 other lakes within a short distance (Störmthaler See - 7.3 km², Cospudener See - 4.4 km², Zwenkauer See - 9.7 km²). The bike tours there lead mostly over beautiful landscapes and offer numerous bathing spots as well as highlights, such as the whitewater canoe facility (Olympic-suitable facility on the lakeshore only about 3 km from the house, even for inexperienced ;-) ), the mining technology park, the Marina LagoVida, the Zwenkau harbour or the Belantis amusement park.
Within a radius of 500 m there is a Greek restaurant and a take-away as well as 3 other restaurants directly on the lakeside promenade (Italian or upscale German cuisine). On the lakeside promenade you will also find the beach, boat and water sports rentals, fitness center with sauna and the jetty.
But it is also just under 8 km by bike to the city centre of Leipzig, and only 4 km to the start of the pub mile on the "Karli".
