The former farmhouse from the 17th century is located on the edge of the village centre of Zunzgen at a fork in the road. The building is characterised by the customary local division into separate residential and farm parts, which can still be clearly seen today. Over time, a small extension with a monopitch roof was added to the residential part.

After many years of vacancy and decay, the building was to become a home for a family again. To this end, the living area was completely renovated. All wall surfaces, floor and ceiling coverings and building services installations were renewed or replaced. The load-bearing structures made of quarrystone masonry and the old ceilings, whose beams were left visible in the rooms, have been preserved.

In the barn, the intermediate floors and interior walls have been removed and an exceptionally spacious intermediate climate space has been created, which can be regulated by opening the two barn doors. A new, large window at a height of 1.5 metres brings plenty of light into the barn and is also the biggest witness to the new interior from the outside.

A single-storey extension with a height offset in timber construction now occupies the space of the former stables. A building material with a long tradition was used for the exterior cladding made of untreated spruce wood. The extension houses the entrance area and the kitchen, both of which are connected to the old house via openings. From the kitchen, large windows allow a view of both the barn and the garden. With its two levels, the roof of the extension, which is used as a lounge, refers to the haylofts traditionally arranged at different heights.
