For sale is a vacant 2-room apartment on Lessingstraße in Karlsruhe-Weststadt, built in 1988. The property is part of the Moninger/Studienresidenz complex, which clearly sets it apart from many classic pre-war or post-war apartments that today leave buyers worried about exposed trades, heating issues, or later surprises.

Instead, here you will find the solid substance of 1988 construction combined with district heating, an elevator, an underground garage, and an apartment that has been comprehensively modernized in private ownership.

+++ HISTORY & SUBSTANCE: THE "MONINGER FOUNDATION" +++

• Solid construction for eternity: The building was originally erected on behalf of the Moninger Brewery (presumably as a beer storage facility).

• Concrete special construction: The extremely robust construction with extensive use of concrete (especially in the basement) ensures above-average structural integrity and longevity.

• Unique sense of space: An indication of the historical usage is the impressive ceiling heights ranging from 3.50 m to 4.00 m. This creates a spacious, airy living atmosphere (especially in the stairwell) that you would otherwise rarely find in typical 1980s buildings.

This is precisely what makes the offer attractive today: Many buyers in 2026 are not looking for a "property with potential" but rather a home or investment with a clear and straightforward premise. And this is exactly where this apartment excels.

The floor plan is efficient and versatile: Both rooms are accessible separately from the hallway. This makes the apartment suitable for several groups of buyers at the same time:

• OWNER-OCCUPIER, who wants to live in a good Weststadt location without the stress of renovations

• SINGLES or YOUNG COUPLES, who want to use the 2 rooms flexibly

• PARENT-CHILD MODEL, where one room is used by your own child and the other can be rented out to help ease the financing burden

• Future flexible rental to singles, commuters, young professionals, or as a quiet 2-person shared apartment

• Immediate rental possibility, for example as a student shared apartment. Just buy the beds and generate cash flow.

PRICE STRUCTURE:

• APARTMENT: €194,999

• Kitchen unit (including appliances and existing furnishings as shown in the photos – partial payment): €7,500

• UNDERGROUND PARKING SPACE: €20,000 (single parking spot, not a duplex)

• TOTAL PRICE: €222,499

The large balcony (facing east) stretches over both rooms. Together with the elevator, storage room in the basement, bicycle storage on the ground floor, and the separate underground parking spot, this forms an unusually complete package for this area.

+++ MAINTENANCE / RESERVE FUND 2026 BUDGET +++

Total monthly service charge (apartment and underground parking): approx. €401.35

Proportional reserves (apartment and parking): approx. €3,250

To the best of current knowledge, no special assessments have been approved.

Note:

€2,191.40 prepaid for heating/water. This amount is above average because the apartment has been rented out on an all-inclusive warm rent basis.

+++ TRAM / LIGHT RAIL STOPS +++

• Lessingstraße (Gartenstraße): approx. 300 m

• Employment Agency (Brauerstraße): approx. 500 m

• Otto-Sachs-Straße (Brauerstraße): approx. 650 m

• Weinbrennerplatz: approx. 750 m

• Mathystraße: approx. 1.2 km

+++ PUBLIC TRANSPORT +++

• City center / Kaiserallee / Kaiserstraße: approx. 900–1,300 m

• Karlsruhe Central Station: approx. 2.5 km

• Brauerstraße / Südtangente (B10): reachable within a short distance

Lessingstraße is one of the most sought-after residential areas in Karlsruhe-Weststadt. The combination of a quiet residential street, an established neighborhood, close proximity to the city center, and excellent transport connections makes the location attractive both for owner-occupiers and for future rentals.

+++ UNIVERSITIES +++

• ZKM / HfG: approx. 550 m

• Academy of Fine Arts: approx. 1.2 km

• Karlsruhe University of Arts and Media (Karlshochschule): approx. 1.4 km

• Hochschule Karlsruhe – University of Applied Sciences (HKA), formerly the Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences: approx. 1.5 km

• KIT Campus South (formerly the University of Karlsruhe TH): approx. 3.2 km

• University of Music / Schloss Gottesaue: approx. 3.6 km

This is particularly strong for the parent-child model: Instead of buying a small 1-room apartment solely for your child, this 2-room apartment offers the possibility of using one room while renting out the other, significantly alleviating the financing burden.

+++ SUPERMARKETS WITHIN A 1-KM RADIUS +++

• Lidl, REWE, Penny: approx. 300 - 400 m

• Alnatura Bio Super Natur Market: approx. 600 m

• Frische-Tipp: Gutenbergplatz – three times weekly at the weekly market: approx. 700 m

• CAP Market: approx. 900 m

• Netto Marken-Discount: approx. 950 m

Here, not only has the appearance been refreshed, but the key areas have been substantially modernized. This is exactly what sets the apartment apart from many comparable offers, where after purchase you would otherwise have to organize an electrician, a plumbing service, and a kitchen studio.

+++ RENOVATIONS WITHIN THE APARTMENT +++

• Water riser pipe in the bathroom, water pipes in the bathroom

• Electrical cabling extended in the hallway/kitchen area

• Complete re-ceiling in the hallway and bathroom with gypsum board and LED spots

+++ BATHROOM / TILES / INTERIOR FINISHES +++

• Bathroom completely modernized

• Newly tiled from floor to ceiling

• Geberit concealed cistern, Grohe fittings, Limodor extractor fan

• Flat shower tray 90 x 90 cm (acrylic)

• New tiling in the kitchen, hallway, and bathroom

• Walls re-plastered, papered, and painted after the electrician’s work

+++ KITCHEN +++

• High-gloss lacquered white fronts

• Ceramic cooktop and oven (Bosch)

• Extraction hood

• Built-in refrigerator in the kitchen, plus an additional freestanding fridge/freezer combination in the hallway next to the washing machine

+++ FURTHER EQUIPMENT +++

• Large balcony (east) spanning both rooms

• Basement storage room

• Lockable bicycle storage on the ground floor

• Elevator

• District heating

+++ ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY: SECURITY THROUGH SIZE +++

The property is part of a condominium community (WEG) that covers an area of 14,188 m² and includes 17 addresses:

• The community: Kriegsstr. 210-218, Lessingstr. 64-68, and Moningerstr. 15-29 form a single economic unit with several hundred residential units.

• Two full-time caretakers: A rarity for a property of this size. This ensures maximum security, immediate repairs, and an impeccable external appearance for the entire complex.

• Well-maintained appearance: There is no “carnival of colors” in the signage here. A consistent, clean appearance (from the doorbell to the hallway) is guaranteed by the property management. This in turn secures a high-end tenant structure and the long-term value retention of your property.

• Cost efficiency: As the costs for these two caretakers are spread over 100,000 condominium shares (the apartment for sale holds 220.898 MEA shares), you benefit from a well-kept environment with moderate ancillary costs.

Investments have also been made over the years in the community property. Many of the points that deter buyers from older existing apartments have already been addressed or implemented here.

• Roof and waterproofing measures

• Elevator

• Main entrance door, mailbox system

• Continuous improvements in the stairwell and corridor areas: flooring, painting, energy-saving lights

• District heating instead of conventional gas/oil heating: This creates a much more relaxed starting point than many older properties with typical heating issues.

• Good financing conditions: Thanks to the combination of construction year 1988 and district heating, GEG-affine banks classify the property as stable in value and relatively low-risk, which gives you access to better interest rates and a smooth credit review.

• To the best of current knowledge, no special assessments have been approved.

+++ IMPORTANT FOR BUYERS +++

This property should therefore not be compared with unrenovated existing apartments where, after purchase, issues such as the roof, elevator, electrical wiring, pipelines, or entrance areas have yet to be addressed. Investments have already been made here over the years – both in the apartment itself and in the overall complex.

+++ KEY DETAILS +++

• Built in 1988

• District heating instead of conventional gas/oil heating

• Energy Efficiency Class E

• Final energy consumption 140.00 kWh/(m²a)

This point is especially important in the current market: District heating combined with a construction year of 1988 provides a much more secure foundation than many older properties with typical heating and renovation challenges.

The individual underground parking space (not a duplex spot) is an additional comfort and value factor in this location. It significantly improves everyday convenience, rental potential, and resale value—especially since it can be rented separately from the apartment.
