description

The now listed country house-like villa is a two-storey building in the Swiss style, also listed as a fine example of this style in the Dehio , with an attached lower outbuilding.

The building faces the street at the eaves. The two-storey building with seven window axes stands on a sandstone base, it has a knee-high floor and a flat, widely protruding gable roof . In the main view of the street there is a three-storey central projection with a width of three window axes with a rafter gable , in front of which there is a wooden, closed veranda with an exit on top, which is bordered by an ornate, wrought-iron grille.

The plastered building is finely divided by cornices and corner pilasters and decorated with elaborate stucco ornaments that are still in existence today. The original windows were framed with profiled sandstone walls and fitted with folding shutters, the upper floor windows were decorated with festoons in the parapet surfaces and peacock motifs in the crowns. Further festoons can be seen in the jamb as well as remains of facade painting in the gable and risalit gable.

The enclosure of the property, which is still quite originally preserved, consists of iron grids between sandstone columns.

history

Villa Waldhof (1912)

The building at Paradiesstraße 48 was probably built as a winegrower's house as early as the 18th century . In 1862, Lieutenant Colonel Johann Karl Adolph von Metzradt (also Carl von Metzradt) requested "to build a new farm building, largely from raw roots, on the morning side of the old house and (to) build a new residential building", ie on the back of the building To add farm buildings and to build a house at today's address Paradiesstrasse 46. Both designs came from the Serkowitz master builder Moritz Ziller , who later founded the construction company "Gebrüder Ziller".

In 1876, the retired pastor Heinrich Ahrendts applied for a one and a half-story farm building for an apartment and a laundry room to be added to the residential building built in 1863/1864 on the north, i.e. left side .

In 1910/1911 the pension owner Helene Ziller (1843–1918), one of the five sisters of the Ziller brothers , had the outbuilding of her family pension "Villa Waldhof" added by her younger brother, the architect Paul Ziller .

At the beginning of the 2010s, the residential building was not renovated in 2016 and was restored in terms of monument preservation.
