In Merl, properties offering a true garden of this size have become exceptionally rare.
Behind the fa?ade of this elegant family home lies a privilege that the Luxembourg real estate market offers less and less frequently: a 677 m? lot, including nearly 360 m? of wooded garden, entirely west-facing, secluded from prying eyes, and bathed in light until the end of the day.
In the heart of this green oasis, it's hard to imagine that you're just a few minutes from downtown Luxembourg. Here, the tranquility of the neighboring gardens, the fruit trees, the spacious outdoor areas, and the near-total absence of overlooking properties create an atmosphere rarely found in the city.
Located at 4 rue de Virton, on one of Merl's most sought-after residential streets, the property enjoys a particularly prime location. Just a few hundred meters away, Place Thorn is home to local shops, restaurants, a supermarket, schools, public transportation, and all the amenities that make Merl one of the capital's most desirable neighborhoods today.
Built in 1953 and carefully maintained over the years, the house offers 155 m? of living space within a total built area of 260 m?. Its generous interior spaces, with 2.70 m ceiling heights on the main floors, provide an excellent foundation for envisioning a long-term living project, where the charm of the existing structure can be enhanced according to your preferences.
The first floor features a pleasant living area of approximately 44 m?, comprising a living room, a dining room, and a semi-open kitchen. From this floor, a staircase leads directly to the 60 m? terrace and the garden, creating a natural flow between the living spaces and the outdoors.
The upper floors currently feature four bedrooms and an office, while the very spacious bathroom offers particularly interesting possibilities for future renovations. Its layout makes it possible?depending on the desired modifications?to create an additional bedroom or two separate shower rooms.
The ground floor is also a real asset. Formerly a retail space integrated into the house, this 25 m? independent area could accommodate a professional practice, a home office, a gym, a guest bedroom, or serve as a garage again, depending on the needs of its future occupants.
Outside, few properties in Luxembourg can offer such ample parking: four vehicles can be parked in front of the house, while a spacious enclosed garage of nearly 39 m? can accommodate two additional vehicles. Its depth of ten meters also provides ample storage space.
Beyond its current qualities, this property also appeals for its potential for future development. The additions made to several neighboring homes demonstrate the possibilities offered by the area, subject to obtaining the necessary permits. The lot, which once housed a swimming pool, also allows for the creation of a new swimming area.
The house has also benefited from numerous technical upgrades already completed (facade, roof, boiler, electrical system), allowing you to approach future renovation projects with confidence.
