New residential and commercial building in Leiwen: Sustainability for the future!

in Leiwen, where the Römerstraße is now blooming, a new residential and commercial building will soon be built, which not only creates modern living space, but also strengthens the local infrastructure. The groundbreaking ceremony for this ambitious project took place on Monday morning and is realized by the Sparkasse Trier, in cooperation with the general contractor Müller Bau and the local community in Leiwen. The building will include six barrier-free residential units and fulfills the high sustainability standards of the KfW Efficiency standards 40 QNG, which brings the project to the prestigious seal of quality, such as [5vier.de reported] (https://5vier.de/ sustainable-bauprojekt-der-sparkasse-trier-breiwens-infrastructure-voran-260629.html).

"We urgently need more living space," explains district administrator Stefan Metzdorf, who praises the project as a formative example of sustainable development in the Region. The Sparkassen branch is housed on the ground floor of the new building, together with the mayor's office and a tourist information, which upgrades the citizen service in Leiwen. With total project costs of around 4.65 million euros, a construction period of around two years is estimated. The completion and moving in of the first tenants are planned until spring 2027.

sustainability and funding in the new building

The topic of sustainability is not only important for the municipality of Leiwen, but also for many people interested in building. The newly married couple Julius and Emilie Schröder attach particular importance to environmentally friendly living. In search of a condominium, you chose an object with the efficiency house level 40 and the seal of quality sustainable building plus (QNG-Plus). "The sustainable standards cause additional costs," admits Emilie, "but it is worth the future -proof construction." You also benefit from the KfW funding "Climate-friendly new building-residential building", which was suggested to you during the tour, such as [kfw.de explained] (https://www.kfw.de/inlandsfoerderung/privatspersen/neubau/f%C3%B6rderprodukte/Klimafreundliche-neubau-wohngeb%C3%A4UDE- (297-298)/).

The Schröders' apartment is heated by means of a heat pump and is largely made of wood, which contributes to a low ecological footprint. They also create their electricity with a photovoltaic system. Before signing the purchase contract, you also got advice from your bank to claim the KfW homeowner.

With projects such as the in Leiwen and the commitment of couples such as the Schröders, it becomes clear that the trend towards sustainable building is getting more and more foot. It remains exciting to see how these changes will shape the region in the coming years.
