House for sale 6+1 • 152 m² without real estateKöln Wahn Nordrhein-Westfalen 51147

The house with 152 sqm of living space, a large garden, and a beautiful terrace offers plenty of room for family and friends. It is located on a fully developed street in a completely serviced residential area without through traffic. The street frontage measures 16.60 m, and the property depth is 30.90 m. The plot is 513 sqm in size (leasehold, church ground).

The entrance area is luxuriously appointed with a marble floor and marble staircase. On the ground floor, besides a spacious kitchen (including a pantry) and a living/dining room, there are two additional rooms, which can be used, for example, as an office or guest room. Also on the ground floor, there is a guest WC with a walk-in shower.

The three generous rooms on the first floor (attic with sloping ceilings) can serve as bedrooms, children’s rooms, an office, or the like, with the largest room opening onto a covered balcony facing the garden. A well-designed bathroom completes the ensemble. The attic above is not finished.

The living areas provide 152 sqm even without the basement. However, the basement is another highlight: the room with an open fireplace is perfect as a lounge for relaxing or as a party room. In addition, there is a laundry room and two more rooms.

The garage and long driveway offer parking for a total of three cars, along with space for bicycles, garden tools, etc. The garden surrounds the house on three sides, with the main part at the back, offering a relaxing oasis with plenty of lawn, shrubs, trees, and a segment devoted to a vegetable garden.

The house has always been well maintained, and many parts have already been renovated (windows, heating, parts of the basement). The potential for further enhancements is evident and presents opportunities for additional value increase.

According to current market overviews, real estate prices in Cologne-Wahn are in the mid-price segment and offer an excellent price-performance ratio for houses compared to more central Cologne districts. Demand is steady, which further supports price stability.

The residential location is best described as quiet yet central, situated in the Cologne district of Porz-Wahn. It is especially prized for its convenient transport connections via the A59 motorway, S-Bahn, and its proximity to the airport and Cologne city center. The S-Bahn, with its direct connections to the airport, the trade fair, the main station, as well as to the Rhein-Sieg district and Bonn, ensures fast commutes and makes the location attractive for commuters.

The street is located in an area characterized by well-kept single-family homes. Large gardens and mature trees create a pleasant, nature-oriented living environment. Many shopping options, schools, and recreational areas are nearby. Right in Wahn, there are several schools, including an elementary school and two secondary schools with good reputations.

For daily needs, various supermarkets, bakeries, pharmacies, and small specialty shops are easily accessible. Sports and cultural offerings range from comedy shows at Brauhaus Eltzhof to the golf course in nearby Libur and the theater museum in Burg Wahn. Family-friendly excursion destinations such as Wahner Heide, Groov (Zündorf), Sieg-Auen, or the cultural highlights in Cologne and Bonn are also easily and quickly reachable by public transport.

This is a two-story, load-bearing residential building that is fully basemented. The basement floor, ceilings, and walls are made of concrete; the exterior and partition walls are constructed of masonry using full blocks of tuff (11.5 cm on the interior, 24 cm on the exterior). A garage is attached on one side. The roof is a wooden gable roof with clay tile covering, while the garage roof is flat.

The floors are finished with marble, parquet, ceramic tiles, and laminate. The stairs are also finished with marble and are complemented on both the ground floor and the upper floor by a wrought iron balustrade.

The entrance door is a metal door with a glass insert, and the interior doors are wooden with walnut veneer. All windows are plastic with double glazing, some equipped with electric shutters.

The house is connected to the sewer, has a gas central heating system, and its hot water is supplied by electric instant water heaters. There are two bathrooms (one on the ground floor and one on the upper floor), one with a bathtub and one with a walk-in shower.

In the basement there is an open fireplace with a masonry chimney.

The large terrace faces northeast toward the spacious garden. Additional garden areas are located beside and in front of the house.

The building’s condition derives from its construction in 1969/1970 and its partially modernized features:

– Gas central heating,

– Modern windows,

– Modernized bathroom on the ground floor,

– Modern front door,

– Moisture remediation of the exterior masonry in part of the basement,

– Sealing of the balcony and garage roof,

– Renewal of the roof window.

There is also some need for further modernization/renovation (roof, moisture issues in other parts of the basement).

All the photos were taken before the current tenants moved in (the rental contract is open-ended).

The house stands on leasehold land owned by the Catholic Church, with a remaining contractual term of 40 years. One can either join this contract (currently costing about 170 EUR per year) or negotiate a new contract for 99 years (terms to be negotiated).
