House for sale • 151 m² without real estateBüchenbronner Straße 71 Pforzheim Baden-Württemberg 75173

The two-family house built in 1902 – now for sale – is situated on a slope at Büchenbronner Straße 71, close to the center of Pforzheim. The two residential units of the house extend over two full floors. In addition, there is a basement and an attic. Currently, both residential units are rented out.

The condition of the house can be described as in need of extensive renovation. Besides comprehensive renovation work, further modernization measures (such as renewing the windows, upgrading the roof insulation, etc.) will also be necessary.

The attic can still be developed further. The ceiling height is high enough to stand upright with some headroom remaining. The house rests on very massive foundations made of red sandstone. In some areas of the basement, the walls are damp. The likely cause is the sandstone, which generally has a natural moisture content. On the south side of the building, there is an extension that was added later. The existing building is protected by a massive wall against the pressure of the downhill slope. Since the wall is already showing slight bulging from the pressure, it may need to be supported again in a few years.

The property has an area of 722 m² and is completely sloped, so parking spaces cannot be accommodated at the lower end near the street. For this reason, the current property owners have been granted a permit that allows them to park on public land on the adjacent property. An annual fee of €132 must be paid to the city for this permit. Important: The permit loses its validity if the property is sold. Should there be an interest in continuing to use the permit, the buyer would need to negotiate with the city.

Pforzheim is very well located in relation to the A8 motorway, with four entrances/exits between Karlsruhe (approximately 25 km away) and Stuttgart (approximately 37 km away). Pforzheim is home to around 125,000 inhabitants, making it one of the largest cities in Baden-Württemberg. Nestled in a picturesque area with the rivers Enz, Nagold, and Würm and with many recreational possibilities, as well as its industrial character, Pforzheim is an attractive place to live. Grocery stores and other everyday shops can be found in the immediate vicinity of the house offered here, or reached on foot in just a few minutes. A bus stop is located only a few meters from the entrance to the property. All types of schools are available in Pforzheim and its districts, as well as two hospitals and all facilities for daily needs. S-Bahn and regional trains operate in all directions in Pforzheim, complemented by a public bus network.
