»Clairière de Chevaux« – A Special Charm of the Midlands
A special charm of the midlands lies in the quaint nature of the countryside, where time seems to have stood still. This country estate is located just five minutes from the northern Zurich city limits.
"Clairière de Chevaux" is situated on the edge of a forest area, in the middle of wide meadows and fields. The property now used as a horse farm, including a magnificent villa with an outdoor pool, a detached house with a barn, several stables and acres of land.
You can quickly reach the old village centre of Rümlang from the estate, with many shops and restaurants, as well as a primary and a secondary school just nearby. There are several– large supermarkets to choose from in the commercial area, where international companies have set up shop. And from the city train station, it takes only 14 minutes to get to Zurich's main railway station.
The famous Jakob Gujer, known as “Kleinjogg” lived in the southern area of Rümlang. He was known for his experiments on farming methods from 1769 to 1785 and to this day, considered a pioneer of modern agriculture.
The beautiful landscape of the Zürcher Unterland region is ideal for spontaneous excursions, swimming in the nearby Katzensee lake or golfing at the Otelfingen golf course.
