Haus Richter (Richter House)
About This Home
Baufritz has been building ecological timber homes since 1896, and the Haus Richter is a two-storey design with attic space, giving the layout more vertical depth than a standard two-floor arrangement. At just under 124 m°, the footprint is compact but the attic adds meaningful additional space. The mixed facade of wood and modern materials gives it a considered exterior without being strongly stylised in either a traditional or contemporary direction.
The ecological timber frame uses Baufritz's patented wood shaving insulation and triple-glazed windows throughout. The focus on chemical-free, allergy-friendly materials runs through the entire build, and the triple glazing delivers superior acoustic performance as well as thermal insulation. These specifications are particularly relevant for families who want a genuinely healthier indoor environment.
Haus Richter is a good choice for buyers who want Baufritz's most thorough health-focused specification in a compact two-plus-attic layout. The triple glazing and allergy-friendly materials are both meaningful differentiators. Interior configurations and finishes are customisable. German engineering standards apply, with UK compliance confirmed project by project.
What We Love
The Haus Richter specifies triple glazing and a chemical-free, allergy-friendly build standard throughout: it's one of the most health-conscious specifications in the Baufritz range, and both features are meaningful rather than cosmetic.
