Historische boerderij / kleine paardenmanege in de buurt van Bamberg, rijhal mogelijk

Rare Opportunity: Historic partially renovated estate with unique atmosphere in nearly secluded location – no external access, no listed status, no agent involved!

The well whispers, peacocks stroll across the courtyard, horses snort, and you can comfortably sit in the shade under ancient trees or enjoy your coffee in the morning sun. A dream come true for animal and nature lovers—ideal for both private retreat and professional use.

Whether as a private sanctuary, small riding facility, tourism potential (possibly eligible for funding), farm community, multi-generational living, seminar or therapy center with guesthouses, or your own concept—this property was developed with support from the local municipality and district office into a special zone for "Living and Working with Animals," offering highly flexible possibilities.
