Single-family house Wilhelm Hofmann

description

The two-storey factory owner's villa, which is now a listed building , stands on what was once a large corner plot of land on Heinrich-Zille-Strasse , the street corner of which has since been built upon after being separated. The building has a natural stone base and on top a hipped roof with a large eaves overhang , with dormers on all sides . The eaves side is oriented roughly north-south, which means that the building is inclined to the course of the street.

The decidedly simple plastered building has rectangular windows of different sizes with different distances within the floors, on the upper floor with folding shutters, on the ground floor the rear is designed as a panorama window.

The entrance is on the right-hand side in the street view, it is surrounded by a clinker strip. A cantilever plate originally hung over it , which has since been replaced by a glass canopy. In the north side view there is a single-storey booth . At the rear of the building there is a wide terrace with a flight of stairs to the garden.

The enclosure consists of wooden fence fields with a cover and base board between embossed natural stone pillars with a cover plate.

history

Johannes Wilhelm Hofmann , a successful entrepreneur in Kötzschenbroda since the beginning of the 20th century , had a somewhat smaller, modern "single-family house" built in 1934/1935 near his representative, large Hofmann villa , on the next street corner of the same apartment block . In August 1934, the Kießling brothers applied for the building they had designed to be constructed in place of a Swiss- style building from 1873 .

With the approval, exemptions to the local building law were issued with regard to the clearance height , the position of the building behind the building line and the exceeding of the front length . The approval for use was granted in June 1935.
