The house Obertorstraße 42, 44, 46 in Esslingen am Neckar is a former semi-detached house .

history

The house was probably built in the 17th century as a half-timbered building and in the first half of the 19th century it received classicist- influenced shop fittings on the ground floor. Window roofs were also added on the gable side. The eaves-side windows were not changed. Towards Obertorstrasse, the building has a lift hut with a double loading hatch , which indicates that the roof space has been divided into two.

In 2000 the south side of house no. 46 was redesigned; this is said to have created an “extremely attractive living situation in the inner city area” with a “very carefully designed garden with various outdoor seating areas”. With this renovation, in 2005 they took part in the competition for the Esslingen builder award.
