About our home

Welcome to our home! The three story house is clean, comfortable and spacious and has all modern amenities you’ll expect from a newly built house.
You enter the house on the ground floor through a spacious entrée which opens up to the kitchen and dining area as well as the living room. French doors lead out to a beautiful veranda and green garden. Enormous windows allow for a bright and sunny atmosphere.
On the first floor you will find two the master bedroom with king-size bed and a second bedroom, which currently is the room for our two sons.
The bathroom, adjoining the master bedroom, is equipped with a double basin and a walk-in double rain shower combination as well as a huge tub.
The rooms with their high ceilings on the first floor as well as the open stairs all support the spacious and friendly atmosphere.
In the basement you will find a third bedroom with a queen-size bed. It is partly used as our home office. Next to it there is our son’s play room with tons of Lego and other toys. Both rooms lead out to the lower part of the garden. The second bathroom with a tub/shower combination and single basin is located on this floor.
A large home cinema with Blue Ray/DVD and Surround System welcomes you for an exciting movie night.
A separate laundry room with washer and dryer can be found on this level, too.
Hardwood floors with under floor heating all over the house will provide for a cosy atmosphere and Internet access through WiFi in every room will make your stay most convenient.
Outside in the large backyard we have a patio and deck with lead to the newly built heated pool. Gas BBQ, a huge trampoline and a sand pit for kids. We provide bicycles with a child-seat and sledges for the wintertime.

More about us

We are a young married couple with two boys (4 and 8-years-old). My husband is in IT and I am an assistant to a lawyer. We love to travel (Australia, North America, Europe) and had the chance to swap house with Australia before, which was a wonderful experience. We can only do swaps during the Bavarian school holidays (listed above).
***We already have plans for 2014, so next possible home exchange will be 2015***

Where is it?

Neighbourhood

Our home is located in beautiful Scheyern, origin of the house of Wittelsbach, an important Bavarian dynasty. Our small quaint town is near the city of Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm (5 minutes), chosen to one of the world's most liveable communities. The district is located in the Hallertau Plains, the famous Bavarian hops growing area. We are a 30-minute drive from Munich airport.
Do you wish to explore the Bavarian capital Munich? Just take our comfortable car (40 minutes drive) or catch the hourly train (30 minutes).
You had enough of vibrant city life? Just plunge into authentic Bavaria with all its culture and traditions that you can find here in the famous region of Hallertau: Explore the surrounding by bike or hiking, drive to the hops museum, make a tour of the oldest brewery in the world called Weihenstephan in Freising, make a daytrip to wonderful Regensburg with its medieval city center enjoying a great cup of coffee or just explore some of the beer gardens, an inseparable part of Bavarian lifestyle. You might also just walk to the monastery of Scheyern and enjoy a cool beer in its onsite beer garden.
You feel like privacy? Then relax in the green garden surrounding the house, have a cold Bavarian beer on your own veranda while your kids are playing in the sand pit or jumping on the huge trampoline. Very less traffic, quiet area.
A supermarket and a bakery nearby will meet your daily needs while the town of Pfaffenhofen also allows for a stroll on its typical main square with a weekly market and the famous handicraft and cake shop. The restaurants of the region will indulge you with typical Bavarian cuisine.
