I had a similar setup for a few years in Munich. My office was 5 minutes bike ride from home, I had a nice window and met a lot of interesting people. I would be happy to be in that setup again. The thought of sitting in a cube without window or an open office fills me with dread.
when our team got moved to the companies main office we were going to be put in rooms that were pretty dark and had few windows. i insisted on being in a room with a window or i'd quit. they ended up custom fitting my desk in an empty corner in the hallway which was smaller than your standard cubicle size but had a window.
