Not only the "Tölzer Bräustüberl" has been freshly renovated. The rear building also shines in new splendor. The former storage areas were turned into three "townhouses".
Bad Tölz – The "Tölzer Bräustüberl" has been open again for a good year after extensive renovation and is running successfully. But there is more to the listed ensemble that the "Invest 5" group bought at the time than just the inn. Directly adjacent to this, three townhouses have been built in the rear building, where malt and grain were once stored, which are now waiting for buyers.

Four entrepreneurs from the region are behind "Invest 5"
Behind "Invest 5" – the headquarters are in Lenggries – are the entrepreneurs Hans Besch, Michael and Peter Gascha as well as Sybille Steininger. They are all united by a love of Bavarian tradition, a penchant for gastronomy, but also expert knowledge from various industries: from the building trade to the commercial sector. At the "Bräustüberl" it was important to everyone to "create a jewel for Bad Tölz," says Steininger. The same applies to the neighbouring project, which has just been completed. Before the renovation, the outbuilding, built in the 18th century, was used as a garage and as a junk room. The upper floor with the old beams was more like a dark hole.
Conversion was "a lifeblood project" for the entrepreneurs
The result is three bright terraced houses that skilfully combine the old with the modern. "A heart and soul project" is what Besch calls the conversion, for which, as with the "Bräustüberl", the architectural firm Lichtblau was brought on board.

The two larger houses have a good 200 square meters of living space
The two larger units each have a good 200 square meters of living space. On the ground floor there is a double garage and a hobby room with a narrow outdoor area in front of it. There is also a utility room. The stairs lead to the first floor. Meter-long fir planks form the floor in the large kitchen-living room. In front of it there is a balcony. The old ceiling beams in the rooms were preserved as far as possible and only replaced or supplemented in some places. Guest rooms and a bathroom complete this floor.

Historic windows have been partially preserved
On the second floor there are three more rooms and a second bathroom. The upper floor is illuminated by a dormer window on the north side and a continuous long dormer on the south side. "The windows are soundproofed," says Besch. This is an advantage, because the busy Wachterstraße is nearby. Speaking of windows, in some places there are practically two windows in a row – the modern one on the inside, the historic one on the outside. "We had to preserve them. That was a requirement of monument protection," explains Besch.
The house right next to the "Bräustüberl" is smaller with just under 120 square meters of living space. Instead of a garage, there are two parking spaces outside.
The city is still working on the outdoor area
Speaking of outdoor areas. This is still being worked on at the moment – by the city. This is because it is redesigning the square between Josefistift, townhouses and the "Bräustüberl". So far, the area has had more of a backyard character. Parking spaces are now being built, but greenery and lighting are also planned. There was talk of an "urban planning delicacy" in the responsible committee. The city is investing around 260,000 euros. The work is expected to be completed in mid-August.
The new townhouses are supplied by the central pellet heating system in the vaulted cellar. Thermal insulation, which was allowed to be attached to the outer shell despite being a listed building, ensures that the heat remains in the building.
The largest townhouse is expected to cost over 1.4 million euros
All of this comes at a price: the smallest unit costs 959,000 euros, while the largest costs a good 1.4 million. However, Besch points out, "about 3.5 million euros were also invested in the renovation of the outbuilding".
