Vacation Rental “Alte Bäckerei Bautzen”
History of the Property:
The property was built in 1890 as an apartment building with commercial space on the first floor.
For many years, the property was used by the family and expanded with an addition to serve as a bakery. This allowed work and family life to coexist under one roof.
Around 1988, the bakery closed because there was no successor. The store was then used as a butcher shop for a few years until the windows and doors were bricked up in the 1990s.
Around the turn of the 21st century, the apartments on the upper floor were refurbished and renovated, and some were occupied by the heirs.
In February 2018, we purchased the property because of its excellent location in the city center and planned to convert the old bakery into our company headquarters, including an apartment and vacation rentals, and began a complete renovation of the first floor and modernizations to the building.
The first phase of renovation was completed in late November 2018, with the ground-floor store finished and the vacation rental partially renovated and refurnished. Further renovations and upgrades to the property and the second vacation rental followed in early 2020. As of January 2021, the office will be transformed into a modern, family-friendly vacation apartment with two children’s rooms featuring bunk beds, a spacious master bedroom (with an optional rollaway bed), a fully equipped kitchen with a counter for quick meals, and a living room with large windows overlooking the city center...
As a result, some work is still in progress and further renovations are planned. We therefore ask for your understanding if this means there are contractors in the building or if not everything is finished yet.
