Your new home – with a stunning view

There are apartments that you buy. And there are apartments that you live in – from the very first moment. This 112 m² penthouse apartment on the top floor of a well-maintained 10-unit building in Kalbach-Riedberg combines high-quality living with a feature that is becoming increasingly rare in Frankfurt’s existing market: an unobstructed, open view of the Frankfurt skyline – new every day and different every hour.

Floor plan and layout

The apartment is divided into four rooms with a clear, well-thought-out functional logic. The spacious living, dining, and kitchen area faces the skyline and opens directly onto the over 30 m² rooftop terrace through a patio door. On the quiet side of the building are two bedrooms as well as an additional room that can be used as a children’s room, guest room, or a fully functional office. All the rooms, sized from 13 to 15 m², are accessed via a broad, bright corridor. The kitchen has been opened up and slightly enlarged compared to the original plan – the transition to the living area is seamless, ideal for evenings with guests.

The wonderful rooftop terrace – the centerpiece

The over 30 m² rooftop terrace is exceptionally rare in Kalbach-Riedberg. It offers space for a complete seating area, a large dining table for 6–8 people, sun loungers, a grill, and planters – all at the same time. In summer, it expands the living area by more than a quarter: morning breakfasts in the sun and sundowners with the Frankfurt skyline as a backdrop.

Building services and standard

Built in 2016, the building has achieved energy class A+ with a final energy consumption of only 18.1 kWh/(m²·a) – as documented in the energy performance certificate (valid until 28.11.2035). Heating and hot water costs were approximately €1,350 in 2024 and around €1,715 in 2025 for the full year. The building features controlled residential ventilation with heat recovery, a fact explicitly documented in the energy certificate: a uniform indoor climate, improved mold protection, and a quieter living environment without the need for constant window opening. An elevator connects the underground garage directly with every residential floor. The access is step-free – from the parking space right up to the apartment door.

Parking, basement, e-mobility

The apartment comes with an unusually spacious, disabled-accessible underground parking space (suitable for SUVs and large family cars). The charging infrastructure for an electric vehicle is already in place – only the wallbox still needs to be obtained (starting at approximately €900). In addition, there is a generous separate basement storage room, a communal bicycle cellar with access from the underground garage, and a storage room on the ground floor for strollers and scooters.

Condominium and monthly charges

The owners’ association comprises only ten units – decisions are made quickly and the communal property is carefully maintained. The service charge is approximately €300 per month (including an annual maintenance reserve of €750). The accumulated reserves are already very comfortable; a bank statement will be provided upon concrete purchase interest.

The apartment is owner-occupied, is a second-hand property (built in 2016), and will be available for occupancy from late February/early March 2027. No broker – no commission.

Kalbach-Riedberg is Frankfurt’s newest district and simultaneously one of the most sought after. The neighborhood was developed from 2001 as a modern residential area with a high quality of life and is now home to around 22,000 people. The area is characterized by young families, academics from the nearby Goethe University’s Campus Riedberg, and an international resident structure. The building is located in a quiet, well-kept residential street with only ten units – a rare configuration in a district otherwise dominated by larger residential complexes.

The U8/U9 subway lines connect Kalbach-Riedberg directly with downtown Frankfurt; the journey to the main station takes about 25 minutes. Via the nearby A661, you can reach the Frankfurt motorway interchange in just a few minutes, putting you within fifteen minutes of the airport or the A5 heading north or south. Within the neighborhood itself, you’ll find a Riedberg center featuring a full-range supermarket, pharmacy, bakery, cafés, doctors, drugstore, and postal services – all your daily needs within walking distance.

Families in Kalbach-Riedberg benefit from an above-average density of educational institutions: several day-care centers, primary schools, the IGS Kalbach-Riedberg, and easy access to Frankfurt high schools.

Spacious parking and play areas such as the Kätcheslachpark – the green heart of the neighborhood – playgrounds, sports clubs, and jogging routes along the fields complete the offer. The University of Frankfurt’s Campus Riedberg, which focuses on natural and life sciences, is only a few minutes’ walk away, making the apartment also highly attractive for academic buyers.

With attention to detail – a true place to live

The features of this apartment clearly set it apart from the typical offerings in Kalbach-Riedberg. What may initially seem standard is, in every detail, executed at a premium level – a combination that is hard to find on the open market.

Genuine wood flooring throughout

Real hardwood floors run through all living areas, giving the entire penthouse a warm, high-quality ambiance. The flooring is well-maintained and can be sanded and oiled by the new owner if desired – there’s no need for immediate renovation, but the option exists to achieve a like-new look with minimal effort.

Two full bathrooms with high-quality sanitary fittings

Both bathrooms are equipped with branded sanitary fixtures, including Villeroy & Boch and Kaldewei. The main bathroom features a spacious shower and a bathtub in an oriental ambiance – a true space for relaxation. The second bathroom handles the everyday needs for families or guests. Both bathrooms are in a condition that does not require any further renovation. High-quality faucets, generous mirrors, and thoughtful lighting give the spaces a timeless, hotel-like appeal.

Intelligent work and storage solutions

A fully functional home office area is integrated into the living room as a custom-built unit: it folds away, is ergonomically designed for work, and when the workday is over, is hidden behind closed fronts. The hallway also offers custom fittings for wardrobes, books, and everyday items – with clear lines and without visual clutter. Such built-ins are rare in comparable offers and would cost a four- to five-figure sum if added later.

Fully equipped fitted kitchen with branded appliances

The fitted kitchen is included in the purchase price. It features branded appliances and offers ample counter space and storage for demanding cooks and everyday family needs. The open transition to the living and dining area makes the kitchen an integral part of the space – and in summer, the rooftop terrace acts as an extended outdoor dining area.

Controlled residential ventilation with heat recovery

This technical detail is explicitly documented in the energy certificate and makes a noticeable difference in everyday living: a uniformly good indoor climate without drafts, low humidity with structural mold protection, quiet living without the need for constant window opening, and lower heating costs through the recovery of heat from exhaust air. For allergy sufferers and families with toddlers, this is a significant health and comfort advantage. In this price segment of the existing market, such a feature is truly rare.

Barrier-free access with elevator

The elevator connects the underground garage directly with all residential floors. The entire apartment is accessed in a barrier-free manner – completely step-free from the parking space to the apartment door. This is highly practical for families with strollers today, and in twenty to thirty years it will be a decisive advantage for comfortable living in old age.

XL underground parking space and basement storage room

The parking space is designed to be accessible – with ample room for SUVs and station wagons with roof boxes. The infrastructure for a wallbox is prepared. The basement storage room is significantly larger than usual and offers plenty of space for seasonal items, sports equipment, and supplies.

Conclusion

This apartment is fully equipped and ready to move in – without any deferred renovation, without compromise. What comparable offers market as individual features (rooftop terrace, ventilation system, elevator, branded bathrooms, A+ energy efficiency) are all combined in one apartment – commission-free.

Please note:

Out of respect for both parties’ time, we require a soft proof of financing from your bank prior to any viewing.

Specifically, this means:

• A simple written confirmation from your bank or financing advisor that financing in the amount of the purchase price is fundamentally feasible, or

• alternatively, proof of the necessary liquidity from personal funds (e.g., a current bank statement, portfolio confirmation, or sales proof of your own property).

A concrete, binding financing commitment is not required for the initial viewing. This procedure has been standard for several years in private direct sales in Frankfurt and saves both parties unnecessary time.
