An Exceptional Residence with Direct Lake Access
There are properties by the water, and then there are places where the lake truly begins at home.
This exceptional villa occupies a prime front-row position directly on the Swiss shore of Lake Constance. Set on approximately 2,111 m² of private grounds, the garden extends all the way to the water’s edge, with no public lakeside path between the property and the lake.

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Built in 2010, the villa offers approximately 241 m² of net living area, complemented by around 44 m² of additional ancillary space across three levels. Clean architectural lines, generous volumes and expansive glazing define the residence. Lake Constance remains ever-present throughout the principal living areas, becoming a natural extension of the home.
The ground floor is centred around the open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, with ceiling heights of approximately 2.80 metres. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows open the interior towards the garden and the lake. A premium Bulthaup kitchen, white Thassos marble and a fireplace combine timeless architecture with an exceptional standard of living. An additional room with its own shower and WC provides comfortable accommodation for guests.
The upper floor forms the private retreat of the residence. The principal suite features a dressing area and a generously appointed en-suite bathroom. Particularly versatile is the approximately 49 m² second living area overlooking Lake Constance. Currently used as a home cinema and music room, it can equally serve as a lounge, home office or additional sleeping and guest accommodation and, if desired, can be divided into one or two additional rooms. A large, sheltered south-facing terrace extends this level outdoors.
The exterior has been designed with the same focus on lakeside living. The heated swimming pool, extending over 16 metres in length, generous terraces, multiple seating areas, an outdoor fireplace, the distinctive water feature and the carefully landscaped gardens combine to create an exceptional private retreat.
At the end of the garden, Lake Constance begins.
The private lakeside seating area with direct access to the water and the permitted water sports buoy positioned directly in front of the property make the lake an integral part of everyday life. No public path separates the property from the water.
Also available for separate purchase is a meticulously and comprehensively restored 1985 Bösch 720 Méditerranée, together with its own berth in Romanshorn harbour.
LOCATION
The villa enjoys a peaceful waterfront setting in Romanshorn, in the canton of Thurgau. This harbour town combines the distinctive quality of life offered by Lake Constance with excellent infrastructure and convenient connections throughout Eastern Switzerland and the wider international Lake Constance region.
The harbour, passenger boat services and a wide range of leisure and water sports opportunities shape everyday life by the lake. St. Gallen and other key centres in Eastern Switzerland are within easy reach, as are the neighbouring regions of Germany, Austria and Liechtenstein.
What truly distinguishes the property, however, is its exceptional micro-location. The private grounds extend directly to the shore of Lake Constance. There is no public lakeside path, road or promenade between the garden and the water.
A setting where the lake is not simply the view, but part of the home itself.
