Modern house close to nature and Frankfurt
Hej and welcome to our exchange offer!
We (Sebastian, Svenja, Benjamin, Clara and Greta) are looking forward to exchange our future house in Hofheim, close to Frankfurt, Wiesbaden and Mainz with you!!!
Our house exchanges:
We have exchanged home quite a few times by now, Sebastian comes from a house exchange family and has exchanged home more than 25 times times in the past (Germany, Sweden, Norway, Finland, USA, Canada, Switzerland), so we call ourselves experienced home exchangers.
Our new house:
We have bought a house close to the forest and public transportation. It is on an 800 sqm property and has 3 floors, each having its own bedrooms and bathrooms (incl. showers). The attic has air conditioning. aPlease see our pictures. We have moved end of May 2019.
Our village Lorsbach:
Lorsbach belongs to the city of Hofheim and has approx. 2900 inhabitants. It has a bakery, gas station, post office, pharmacy and a small kiosk where you can get everything you need. Lorsbach is 3 km per foot or car and 1 train station away from Hofheim.
Our city Hofheim:
Hofheim is a modern city with 40.000 citizens on the edge of the uplands Taunus, directly connected to Frankfurt, Mainz, Wiesbaden and Frankfurt Airport (but no aircraft noise- that´s why we moved here!). Hofheim has several events during the year from an ice scating arena in the winter to open air concerts in the summer.
Therefore Hofheim is very popular among young families and the older generation who are looking for an escape from the big cities, but want close connection to them. Hofheim has all kinds of good restaurants from A(ustrian) food - Z(irndorfer) beer.
