A place that preserves the past – and shapes the future
It is said that those who linger in Reichenau hear the echo of bygone times resonating through the forests.. Nestled among ancient chestnuts, the splashing of the high spring water pipeline, and the clear air of the Raxalpe stands this old hunting lodge, as if untouched by time.
Built around 1892 – when Franz Joseph I held court at the Rudolf Villa – it carries the charm of imperial summer freshness. Whether hunting lodge or country residence – the stately character remains.
Between 2012 and 2015, it was lovingly restored with sensitivity, a sense of style, and great respect for its history – over two and a half years, with dedication and heart down to the last detail.
With every step, whether it be the original double doors, the heavy handles, venerable door frames, or the etched glass panes, one feels the past. And yet:
It is a house of today – equipped with all the comforts of modern quality of life, embedded in an ambiance that one usually knows only from films.
Spanning over 2,200 m², this extraordinary estate offers approximately 540 m² of living space, 11 rooms, and countless ancillary spaces, providing room for generosity and diverse usage ideas.
A space for stories
Behind the ornamented mosaic tiles of the entrance opens a living room of approximately 100 m² – flooded with light, serene, stylish.
The ceiling height gives a sense of expansiveness, hardwood floors bring warmth, and three wrought-iron chandeliers draw the gaze upward. An open fireplace creates atmosphere.
The zoning feels natural: living room, library, dining table – and the view out into the greenery.
Cooking with style
The open kitchen by Gaggenau is a feast for the eyes and the discerning. Dark wooden fronts, hidden high-quality technology, a cooking island on black natural stone. Above hovers an extractor hood like a design object.
A place where cooking, enjoying, and socializing merge.
Step by step to tranquility
Ascending the stairs is accompanied by the cool shine of an artistically curved railing. At the top, a hallway opens that almost resembles a grand hotel – airy, spacious, inviting.
The stylish gentlemen's room
Opposite the staircase lies the stylish gentlemen's room – a space full of character and history.
An elegant double door opens to reveal a Chesterfield sofa set, surrounded by fine Art Nouveau furniture. Here, the scent of old books and the leather of the armchairs mingle – and sometimes a hint of fine whiskey and hand-rolled cigars.
The soft clicking of billiard balls accompanies conversations, while the small balcony opens up to nature.
Bedroom & Spa – a place for retreat and regeneration
Next door is the bedroom – an invitation to comfort. Dimmable lighting, heavy curtains, warm tones: a room that leads to tranquility.
The bed is a refuge, nothing is loud, everything breathes elegance and restraint. A place to let go.
Across the way opens a space for all senses – a private spa that promises retreat and offers renewal.
The day begins with a quiet greeting from the sun, the window wide open, the view into the greenery – breath by breath, calm returns.
Then the transformation: movement becomes strength, yoga and training merge with the stillness of the place.
And afterwards: pure regeneration. The KLAFS sauna is a glowing centerpiece, the infrared sanarium releases tension, and the solarium provides sunlight at the push of a button.
Everything flows – thoughtful, elegant, in balance. A space that not only strengthens but transforms.
A bathroom like a quiet work of art
Generously sized, flooded with light, and with that certain something:
The freestanding tub rests on light stone, flanked by warm wood. Next to it: an XL rain shower, frameless, with a view into the greenery.
Two noble natural stone washbasins flank the long side, in between a cushioned seating area – a bathroom and living space at the same time.
A place for rituals. And for peace.
Opposite: the dressing room – custom work with soul
Two areas – one for HER, one for HIM – connected by a shared sense of aesthetics, function, and generosity.
Millimeter-perfectly fitted wardrobes with silk-matte fronts, elegant lighting, perfectly structured order.
For HER: vanity with mirror, light, and storage space, like one finds only in the dressing rooms of old theaters.
For HIM: classic, clear, focused on essentials – with space for tailored suits, hiking boots, and memories of past adventures.
A space that inspires enthusiasm for the day in the morning – and offers a stylish conclusion in the evening.
Under the roof: a refuge for individualists
Three spacious rooms unfold their character here – one a cozy bedroom, the other a stylish office with presence.
The fully equipped kitchen makes the floor a self-contained unit – thoughtful, comfortable, sovereign.
An additional room and archive spaces provide room for guests, ideas, or quiet moments.
An attic that is more than just a conclusion – it is a cosmos of its own with presence and style.
What begins inside continues outside
Outside, the wonder continues – seamlessly, as if it were natural.
What begins inside with character and style finds its perfect continuation in the garden, ancillary rooms, and atmosphere.
The outbuilding – a space full of possibilities
Where once the old barn stood, today opens a generous, upwardly open space, which, with its fully glazed front, creates an extraordinary connection to nature.
Without a ceiling, an impressive expansiveness unfolds, allowing air and light to flow into every corner.
Whether for roaring parties, inspiring seminars, or a private workout area – this place adapts flexibly to your wishes.
A space that breathes history and lives modernly – open, bright, free.
A garden that merges landscape and zest for life
Gently carved into nature, a unique outdoor space unfolds here – terraced and arranged over several levels, each with its own charm and view.
Soft steps rise, inviting you to linger and opening new perspectives on the surrounding forests and vast meadows that stretch to the horizon.
At the very top, at the highest point of the property, a top-class pool landscape reigns: a retreat full of elegance and joy of life.
Space for swimming, relaxing, enjoying – and thanks to the prepared infrastructure, an outdoor kitchen can easily be realized here, making outdoor living perfect.
This ensemble of nature and architecture creates an atmosphere that invites dreaming – a quiet luxury that continues to thrive outdoors.
A refuge beyond the ordinary
This estate is more than a home – it is a statement.
A unique jewel that connects history, nature, and timeless elegance in a symbiosis that is unparalleled.
