Kaiser
About This Home
Baufritz has been building ecological timber homes in Bavaria since 1896, and the Kaiser is one of their two-storey designs with attic space, giving the layout vertical depth beyond the standard two-floor arrangement. At just over 105 m², the floor plan works across two bedrooms with the attic adding further flexibility. The facade blends traditional proportions with modern detailing rather than committing fully to either.
Construction uses Baufritz's ecological timber frame with their proprietary wood shaving insulation throughout. Energy-efficient windows, modern heating, and integrated home automation options are all available within the standard specification. The allergy-friendly material standard that runs through all Baufritz builds applies here.
The Kaiser is a considered choice for buyers who want a home with some architectural presence and a genuine sustainable build, without the floor plan scale of the larger models in the range. Customisation of layouts and finishes is fully available. German engineering standards apply, with UK compliance handled project by project.
What We Love
The Kaiser's two-storey plus attic arrangement makes the most of a compact 105 m² footprint, and the proprietary Baufritz wood shaving insulation means the thermal performance is as serious as the construction heritage.
