About this property
Idyllic cottage by the lake near the North Sea
Do you want to spend your holiday surrounded by nature by a lake, enjoy your freedom, and still be able to take a quick trip to the open sea? It sounds like Scandinavia, but it’s actually not far from the North Sea in Lower Saxony.
Enjoy your privacy on this property, which spans over 2,200 square metres and is situated on the shore of a lake approximately 1.3 hectares in size (your private share of the lake is about 3,500 square metres)—a space you won’t have to share with anyone. Pure freedom!
The fireplace creates a cosy atmosphere in the evening as you gaze into the flames.
The many terraces and seating areas overlooking the lake invite you to enjoy relaxing days.
