For now, my intention is to sell the property after a few years. Construction is not conceivable at the moment, but let’s see what time will bring. The population number is also one of the factors that made me think a bit. It has remained steady in recent years. Nevertheless, Langeln is located between two medium-sized towns (Barmstedt and Kaltenkirchen), so I can imagine that Langeln could also get a piece of the pie. Of course, this would take several years. The justification in the land use plan states that a conversion of the areas from agriculture to residential construction is planned. Of course, it is not clear where and when this will happen in Langeln.
In a few years, your property will not have experienced a value creation leap yet; you will generally have to rethink for decades first. The best people to know where and when this will happen in Langeln are the ones in Langeln.
A big potential is indeed the rail connection. I can imagine that at some point the center of Langeln will shift toward the train station. Well, I think I’ll just participate in the auction and see how the whole thing develops. After all, I’m still a young 24 years old.
That explains your naive approach. May I ask where you already get the money for long-term speculation at such a young age?

350-400 sqm are suitable for semi-detached houses in commuter belts.
Of course, one can also get the idea in rural areas to take 400 sqm for a "detached" single-family house.
Even in rural areas, on 400 sqm you can definitely still build a "detached" single-family house, nowadays commonly semi-detached houses ;-) i.e. one side with building setback, the other side with a boundary double garage. But the increasing number of garages with decreasing plot size is a phenomenon in itself ...
