Below is the English translation of the text:

This beautiful, comfortable 98 m² condominium with high-quality furnishings, located in a multi-family house, is set in the midst of a green oasis created over many years.

A green island in a central location within an area that is additionally designated as a Drempel, traffic-calmed Tempo 30 zone, with mature trees.

This is situated in a highly sought-after residential area of the Essen-Holsterhausen district, in close proximity to the University Hospital and the University of Essen.

The ready-to-move-in 3.5-room apartment is on the raised ground floor, connected to the district heating network, and has been continuously upgraded energetically. It impresses not only with its light-filled rooms and generous sense of space. You have the opportunity to move in immediately and enjoy (or rent out) the south-facing balcony as well as the beautiful, versatile garden area.

A particular highlight and a rarity in the city is the garden area for EXCLUSIVE USE (special right of use) by the owner. With a total of 153 m², in addition to the continuous, spacious living area of almost 100 m², you have this urban retreat right in the middle of the city at your disposal. Make every day a holiday in your green home with all the benefits of city living.

The property is suitable for couples and families. You decide whether to embellish your future garden with ornamental plants, to grow your own fruit and vegetables, or to create a playground for your children. Even large dogs would find a beautiful home here.

Direct access through the open-plan kitchen (included in the purchase price) + bedroom to the balcony and garden area. Daylight bathroom: Shower PLUS bathtub with a view of the greenery PLUS storage room.

Fast internet: Currently DSL 100, fiber-optic is also possible!

Connection for a wood-burning stove is possible and permitted.

Lockable bicycle cellar available.

Main entrance door: Aluminum with locking system / intercom.

Sufficient free parking spaces for cars on the street.

Garages can be rented in the nearby area, if needed.

Windows and external shutters in the entire property are NEW (March 2022).

Additionally, there are low access thresholds for the lockable balcony doors.

The roll-up shutter boxes have been provided with thermal and acoustic insulation.

Before the initiated energy modernization measures, the property’s energy performance rating was D. Since then, the windows in all residential units of the building have been replaced, and the entire basement ceiling, including the garage ceilings, has been insulated. Insulating the basement ceilings not only results in savings on heating costs for the apartment being sold but also improves the “foot warmth” above.

Due to the completely traffic-calmed residential location and the A40 in the Holsterhausen area, which is paved with whisper asphalt, this property is not only energetically (energy performance rating D) attractive because of its connection to the district heating network, its central location, and its high-quality features, but is truly a rare diamond.

See for yourself the nature and bird paradise that could soon be yours.

Individual floor plan layouts are possible with minor changes. Formerly, a study = children’s room.

Not included in the purchase price are the furniture seen in the photos, with the exception of the open-plan kitchen including electrical appliances and washing machine, the pond pump and filter by Fa. Oase, various gardening tools, decorative elements, planters, etc. Further details can be arranged personally.

The property was comprehensively gutted in 2004 by various specialist companies, with walls removed to give the apartment an airy character.

Complete electrical sub-distribution including a new distribution board. Light switches and sockets: design switch program by Fa. GIRA.

Also completely renewed were all connections and piping in the bathroom and kitchen. Since the heating cellar of the building is located under the bathroom and the new pipes run below that ceiling, a quick inspection is possible if necessary and any required repair work on the pipes can be carried out without damaging the bathroom fixtures. A major advantage over condominium apartments on higher floors.

Suspended ceilings at a height of 2750 mm have been installed to save energy costs. At this height, the character of the old building was preserved and a generous sense of space was maintained through light-filled rooms.

The garden includes a variety of decorative shrubs, flowers, etc., which are pollinated by the busy inhabitants of the erected bee houses.

Due to previous experiences with the sale of other properties, we ask for your understanding that we require, from potential buyers BEFORE VIEWING our private area and before answering detailed questions, a written confirmation from your bank of the FINANCING APPROVAL for the advertised purchase amount. The background is to deter those who, lacking other leisure activities, might view a property solely for their own amusement and to our annoyance on weekends.

If you are interested and have a POSITIVE FINANCING APPROVAL from your bank, we look forward to receiving your application.
