Nestled in the rolling Mostviertel hills just forty minutes from Vienna, Chalet Sternenzauber is a secluded retreat designed for two, where a glass-domed star bed, a distinctive barrel sauna with panoramic hill views, and a private whirlpool create an intimate sanctuary for complete disconnection.

A converted 19th-century drying house provides compact quarters with kitchen, bathroom and wood-heated lounge, while the expansive 100-square-meter terrace blurs the line between interior and exterior living, inviting extended inhabitation of open space cocooned in lush forests and gentle slopes where walking trails wind through restorative quiet. The proximity to Vienna makes this an ideal pre- or post-city escape for international visitors, while the absolute silence and pulse-slowing rhythms of the surrounding landscape invite genuine stillness.

The Signature
Highlights

A Place Designed for Two — the scale of Sternenzauber is deliberate: intimate enough that nothing feels wasted, complete enough that nothing is missing.
Where the Terrace Becomes the Living Room — a hundred square metres of timber deck hold the lounge, whirlpool, sauna, firepit, and the unhurried hours between them.
The Art of Doing Very Little — a book, a glass of wine, something slow cooking inside, the days dissolving without effort or agenda.
A Nest with History — thick walls, low light, a wood-burning stove: the restored 19th-century shell of the property lends the interior a warmth that simply cannot be designed from scratch.
Forty Minutes from Vienna, Completely Away — the proximity to the capital makes arrival easy, while the rolling hills and silence of the Mostviertel ensure the distance feels far greater than the map suggests.
