House to rent 5+1 • 160 m² without real estate, North Rhine-Westphalia

2006 this detached, brick-clad single-family house was built in solid construction on a plot of approximately 441 m² in Heinsberg’s Schafhausen district. The house is built in a detached design without a basement. To the right is a spacious garage (approximately 8 m x 4.4 m) with a rear storage room – to the left, a single-story extension (about 42 m²) with a separate entrance and flat roof, built in 2015/2016. The extension includes its own toilet.

Behind the centrally located front door, you enter a hallway where, to the right, you find a guest WC, the staircase, a storage room, and an internal access to the garage. To the left, the generous kitchen/dining/living area of about 49 m² leads out onto the covered terrace and the well-maintained garden facing southeast.

On the top floor, there are three bedrooms (approximately 12, 14, and 15 m²), a storage room, the bathroom (about 8.6 m²), and above the garage, a small office.

An attic accessible via an extendable ladder provides additional storage space. The stated total living area of approximately 160 m² comprises the main house’s living area (approximately 131 m²), a portion of the extension (about 21 m²), and the terrace area (around 8 m²). The garden can additionally be accessed from the side of the extension as well as via the garage.

Features:

The high-quality furnishings are impressive. Double-glazed uPVC windows are installed – in the extension, these feature thermo-acoustic glass along with an enhanced security package. Almost all windows are equipped with roller shutters.

Temperatures are maintained by a heat pump heating system with a 500-liter storage tank, installed at the end of 2023.

In the extension (constructed with a timber frame and 200 mm mineral wool insulation), electric underfloor heating has been installed. The photovoltaic system is integrated into the terrace roof. It has a capacity of approximately 9.33 kWh and includes a 6 kW battery storage system. The energy certificate, based on the energy consumption over the past three years, shows an energy efficiency class of A.

The floors on the ground floor and in the extension are primarily finished with high-quality stone screed, while laminate flooring has been laid in the rooms of the top floor.

The solid staircase is adorned with white granite. In the daylight bathroom you will find a corner bathtub, WC, and shower, as well as a towel radiator and two washbasins mounted beneath illuminated mirrors.

The outdoor areas are designed to be relatively low-maintenance – on the street side, the floors are paved and two stone flower beds have been laid. The garden essentially consists of a lawn area, which is enclosed at the rear by a fence made of concrete elements and bordered on the side by a cherry laurel hedge. A spacious wooden garden shed with its own wooden terrace provides additional storage for garden furniture and other items, as well as a place to relax.

Both in front of the garage and in front of the extension you have a parking space for your car. The house is located on a quiet side street in the charming Heinsberg district of Schafhausen. The center of Heinsberg (Germany’s westernmost district town) is about 2 km away. Within a radius of roughly 10 km, you will find the towns of Hückelhoven, Geilenkirchen, Wassenberg as well as the Dutch border. The distances to Mönchengladbach and Aachen are just over 30 km. All daily services (doctors, pharmacies, banks, leisure facilities, shops, and much more) as well as local public transportation connections are quickly accessible. Within an approximately 2 km radius, there are facilities ranging from daycare centers and kindergartens to various schools. The nearby A46 motorway (about 5 km away) and the federal road B56 provide very fast connections to neighboring cities.
