House for sale 4+kk • 140 m² without real estateHamburg Niendorf Hamburg 22459

Here is the English translation of the text:

We are selling a beautiful house with an enchanted garden in Hamburg-Niendorf – directly from the owner without an agent.

Imagine this: In the morning, you open the bedroom window and are greeted by the singing of blackbirds, tits, and redstarts – and the nearest subway station is still just a few steps away.

This is not a contradiction. This is our oasis in Hamburg-Niendorf.

This unique house on a 960 m² plot brings together two worlds that are seldom combined: the quiet and beauty of a green oasis alongside the convenience of an excellent urban infrastructure. Right in front of the house is a U2 station – and yet, you neither hear nor feel anything from the train inside the house or garden.

A House with History and Magic

The house was built by a captain – and you can feel it. There are no right angles where a rounded finish would be more beautiful. Nooks like on a ship, practical and charming. A wooden floor that radiates warmth (parquet in the living room, wooden planks on the first floor). And an atmosphere that you feel the moment you step inside and find hard to put into words. Once you enter the house, you stay.

In the 1980s, a creative previous owner opened up the ground floor: almost all partition walls were removed, and in the center of the resulting spacious living area a magnificent fireplace made of red brick was built. It supports the house today – both literally and figuratively. Anyone who has experienced the roaring fire while light floods in from both sides through the floor-to-ceiling windows and your eyes wander over the enchanted garden will immediately understand: this is home.

We ourselves created the large window façade with the oversized sliding door leading to the garden – thus uniting the living room and nature as one.

140 m² of Living Space with Everything a Family Needs

The living room alone measures 65 m² – a real space to live, celebrate, and relax. Additionally, there is a generous kitchen with a dining area, a charming small bay window room with a panoramic view of the garden, three rooms on the upper floor (including the most exciting: a quirky children’s room with slopes, nooks, and a platform), a bathroom, a guest toilet on the ground floor, a large balcony facing southwest – and as a wintry highlight: your very own sauna in the bright full basement.

The garage is accessible from the outside and therefore secure. The full basement (as a semi-basement) has daylight and offers space for an office, a hobby room, or simply for anything that needs room.

Investment Security Included

For those who calculate pragmatically, there are also good reasons: The new development plan permits, for this plot, a four-story new building plus a penthouse in a closed construction (FAR: 0.5). The roof is well insulated, solar panels provide hot water, the maintained gas heating system still works flawlessly according to experts – and the possibility of blown-in insulation for the brick exterior walls promises a cost-effective improvement in efficiency.

But let’s be honest: anyone who buys this house is not buying an investment property. They are buying a way of life.

We are selling directly – privately, without an agent, and without commission.

Come by. Experience for yourself what this house can do.

Location, Location, Location – It Doesn’t Get Much Better

Hamburg-Niendorf is one of the most popular and desirable districts of the Hanseatic city. Quiet and green, yet well connected, middle-class without being stuffy, family- and dog-friendly, with a true neighborhood feel and infrastructure that is rarely found all together. The house is located right in the best part of this popular district.

The U2 – Right at Your Door

The subway station is literally right outside the door – and you don’t even notice it (no rumbling, no noise, no vibrations), yet you enjoy the convenience: In 20 minutes you are at Jungfernstieg. Four stations to Osterstraße with its many restaurants and cafés. Three stations to Hagenbeck’s Zoo – perfect for families with children.

Children and teenagers here remain independent. No need for a parent taxi. Shopping, meeting friends, going to the cinema – the city is simply at your fingertips.

By Bike to the City – Almost Without Traffic Lights

For cyclists, the location is a dream: The bike route runs directly down the street. From here, you can head along Tarpenbek and the Alster through green paths into the city center – almost without traffic lights, almost without car traffic. Right in front of the house is a city bike station.

The Tibarg – 600 Meters Away

Niendorf’s neighborhood center, the Tibarg, is less than a ten-minute walk away (or one U-Bahn station). Here you will find everything: a shopping center with H&M, Thalia, Rewe, Aldi, etc., as well as a pedestrian zone with a weekly market, small shops, bakeries, banks, hairdressers, and ice cream parlors. Culturally, there’s the “Village,” a cultural café with unusual music events, a wine bar, and various restaurants. Medical care in all specialties is also well provided.

Nature at Your Door – The Niendorfer Gehege

The Niendorfer Gehege was recently named one of the most beautiful urban forests in Germany. And rightly so: a red deer enclosure, a forest playground, a forest café overlooking pony pastures, pony riding, a dog run, natural paths through forest and fields along a stream. You can start jogging right from your house.

Included in the Gehege is the Bondenwald swimming pool with an extensive outdoor area and an attractive sauna landscape. Next door are the sports fields of NTSV.

In the other direction – toward the airport – is another recreational area with one of Hamburg’s largest off-leash dog areas, a wild pond, a mini-golf course, allotment gardens, and quiet paths along a stream.

Excellent Schools in the Immediate Vicinity

The house is located exactly in between two renowned high schools: Gymnasium Ohmoor, known throughout Hamburg for its innovative teaching, and Gymnasium Bondenwald, with a focus on classic education and musicality. Both cooperate, and students can attend courses at each other’s schools. In addition, there are three primary schools within walking distance and a very popular neighborhood school.

Quiet Despite Everything

Despite the immediate urban connection, there is hardly any aircraft noise (located across from the airport, not under flight paths), and the motorway is sufficiently distanced to keep noise at bay.

Niendorf is just as Niendorf is meant to be: pleasant, quiet, and friendly.

The House in Detail – Charm, Character, and Thoughtful Substance

This house is not a cookie-cutter new build. It has history and character – and features that are rarely found in such a combination.

The Living Room – 65 m², the Heart of the House

The centerpiece: a light-filled living room of around 65 m². Light pours in from both sides – through the window façade facing the street and through the generous sliding door leading to the garden. The brick fireplace made of red brick in the center of the room is not merely decorative: it is a supporting element, a room divider, and the soul of the house all at once. The parquet adds elegance; the fire brings coziness.

The Kitchen – Spacious, Practical, with Character

The U-shaped kitchen offers plenty of work surface and storage space. The easy-care terracotta floor, natural wood fronts, metal elements, and a marble countertop still make the kitchen a beautiful place today. A table with seating for four fits perfectly into the space.

Note: The kitchen appliances and some details are aging and should be renewed – a great opportunity to imprint your own style.

The Charming Bay Window Room

The “tea room” of about 5 m² is a small specialty: windows all around, views of the garden from every angle. Sometimes a TV room, sometimes a reading room, sometimes a home office – this room is many things and above all, it is enchanting.

Three Rooms on the Upper Floor

All three rooms bear the mark of the shipbuilding captain: sloping ceilings, practical nooks for storage, rounded corners rather than harsh angles, wooden plank flooring radiating warmth.

The master bedroom offers space for a large bed and a decent wardrobe, plus a door leading to the large balcony. The second room – formerly a girl’s room – is arguably the most exciting room in the house: quirky, with a sleeping nook, platform, and alcoves, full of possibilities. The third room – the former boy’s room – offers more space while retaining its style with slopes, nooks, and characteristic wooden plank flooring.

The Bathroom

A wide sink for two people, a bathtub, easy-care terracotta floor – functional and solid. It’s not new, but it is well maintained and pleasant. If you wish to renovate, you have free rein here.

Sauna in the Basement – A True Luxury

In the bright semi-basement, there is a private sauna. In winter: sweat, cool off in the garden, then relax by the fireplace. This trio is a real pleasure.

The Full Basement

The basement is not a dark hole: as a semi-basement it is only partly below ground, receives daylight, and offers real usable space. Whether for an office, a hobby room, a bar, a laundry room, or storage – there is plenty of space and ideas. One side and the back of the basement were well insulated against moisture when it was built.

Balcony

Above the bay window room lies the large balcony facing southwest. Anyone who watches the sun set over the treetops in the evening will know why this balcony is simply wonderful.

Garage

The garage is accessible from the outside (providing enhanced security) and offers space for a car or – as in our case – for bicycles and hobby equipment. In heavy rain, an automatic water pump and a humidity-sensitive fan keep the interior dry. In front is a parking space, and next to it stands the camper.

Energy Efficiency

The roof was re-roofed and extensively insulated over ten years ago. Solar panels for hot water are installed on the roof – making the heating costs for water almost nil. The gas heating system is maintained and, according to experts, still in perfect working order. In the medium term, switching to a heat pump would be an option. The brick walls of the ground floor can be significantly improved with cost-effective blown-in insulation within a day.

Information for Project Developers

Based on the new development plan, there is an exemplary architectural plan with 747.5 m² of living space (total gross floor area R+S of 1,465.4 m²). This makes it possible to build 21 small residential units, three of which on the ground floor with terraces, and all the others with balconies (1.5 m overhang). The escape route in accordance with § 34 HBauO and BPD2023-2 and the distances to neighboring plots have been taken into account. Planning alternatives include: an underground garage with 14 parking spaces (then 678.7 m², 19 units) or a level passage to the courtyard with 12 parking spaces.

The new, legally binding development plan allows:

• 4 full floors plus a penthouse

• Closed construction

• FAR: 0.5

• General residential area

If It’s All About Location – It Doesn’t Get Much Better

Nature at Your Door – The Niendorfer Gehege

The Niendorfer Gehege was recently named one of the most beautiful urban forests in Germany – and rightly so: red deer enclosures, a forest playground, a forest café with views over pony pastures, pony riding, a dog run, untouched paths through woods and fields along a stream. You can even start a jog right from your doorstep.

Also part of the Gehege is the Bondenwald swimming pool with its large outdoor area and attractive sauna landscape. In addition, there are the sports fields of the NTSV.

Quiet Despite Everything

Despite the immediate urban connection, there is hardly any aircraft noise (situated across from the airport, not below flight paths), and the highway is far enough away to maintain a quiet atmosphere.

Niendorf is just as it should be: pleasant, quiet, and friendly.

The House in Detail – Charm, Character, and Thoughtful Substance

This house is not a generic new build. It has history, it has character – and it boasts features that are hard to find in combination.

The Living Room – 65 m², the Heart of the House

The centerpiece is a bright, spacious living room of around 65 m². Light pours in from both sides – from the street-facing window wall and the generous sliding door leading to the garden. The brick fireplace made of red brick in the center of the room is not just a decorative element: it is a structural support, a room divider, and the soul of the house all at once. The parquet adds an air of elegance, while the fire brings warmth and coziness.

The Kitchen – Spacious, Practical, with Character

The U-shaped kitchen provides plenty of work space and storage. The easy-to-maintain terracotta floor, natural wooden cabinetry, metal accents, and a marble countertop make the kitchen still a beautiful place today. A table with seating for four fits right in.

Note: The kitchen appliances and some details have aged and should be renewed – a great chance for you to add your own personal touch.

The Charming Bay Window Room

The “tea room,” about 5 m² in size, is a little specialty: it has windows on all sides, offering a view of the garden from every angle. Whether as a TV room, a reading nook, or a home office, this space is versatile and, above all, enchanting.

Three Rooms on the Upper Floor

Each of the three rooms carries the signature of its building captain: sloping ceilings, practical niches for storage, rounded elements instead of harsh angles, and wooden plank floors that radiate warmth.

The master bedroom offers ample room for a large bed and a generous wardrobe, with an access door to the large balcony. The second room – formerly a girl's room – is perhaps the most exciting room of the house: quirky, with a sleeping nook, a platform, and built-in niches, full of possibilities. The third room – the former boy's room – offers more space while retaining its character with slopes, niches, and the distinctive wooden plank flooring.

The Bathroom

Featuring a wide basin suitable for two people, a bathtub, and an easy-care terracotta floor – it’s functional and solid. It isn’t new, but it is well maintained and pleasant. If you wish to renovate, you have free rein here.

Sauna in the Basement – A True Luxury

Located in the bright semi-basement is a private sauna. In winter, you can sweat it out, cool off in the garden, then relax by the fireplace. This combination is a real treat.

The Full Basement

The basement is not a dark, gloomy space: as a semi-basement, it lies only partly below ground, has daylight, and offers genuine usable area. Office, hobby room, bar, laundry, storage – there is ample space for all kinds of ideas. One side and the rear of the basement were well insulated against moisture at the time of construction.

Balcony

Above the bay window room lies the large southwest-facing balcony. Anyone who watches the sunset over the treetops in the evening will understand why this balcony is simply wonderful.

Garage

The garage is accessible from the outside (ensuring enhanced security) and offers space for a car or – as in our case – for bicycles and hobby gear. In case of heavy rain, an automatic water pump and a humidity-sensitive fan keep the area dry. In front, there is a parking space, and beside it, the camper is parked.

Energy Performance

The roof was re-covered and extensively insulated over ten years ago. Solar panels on the roof provide hot water – meaning the heating costs for water are virtually zero. The gas heating system is maintained and, according to experts, is still in flawless condition. In the medium term, switching to a heat pump makes sense. The brick walls of the ground floor can be significantly improved with cost-effective blown-in insulation in just one day.
