Renovation 2022 – What Was Done:

In 2022, the property was comprehensively refurbished to the latest energy standards and now achieves energy class A thanks to the measures taken. The work was carried out by specialized companies from the Cologne area.

To generate maximum brightness and spaciousness, existing ceilings were opened up and room heights were partially increased (ground floor approx. 2.60-2.80 m, upper floor approx. 2.38 m, attic mid-height 1.84 m). A particular highlight is the newly created conservatory, which can be flexibly shaded with a high-quality awning. The large double-leaf garden door offers a seamless transition between the interior and exterior areas. These open structures make the house appear especially bright and expansive.

The roof was completely re-covered and energetically optimized through a combined roof and between-rafter insulation; simultaneously, the attic was converted. The building’s exterior received new insulation and a robust wooden cladding. For maximum energy efficiency, triple-glazed windows were installed—each equipped with new shutters—as well as a new high-quality wooden front door.

For sustainable heat supply, an air heat pump was installed to feed the underfloor heating system and ensure water supply throughout the home. All electrical wiring was renewed and supplemented with modern network cabling. In the process, a fiber-optic connection was also installed.

Location and Surroundings – Where and What:

For commuters, the connectivity is ideal: The S-Bahn stop for line 7 is only about a ten-minute walk away and conveniently takes you through Lindenthal and Neumarkt directly to Deutz. Cyclists will enjoy relaxing routes through fields and the city park, almost entirely immersed in greenery on the way to Cologne, while motorists can access the highway in just five minutes. On site, public parking spaces are available on the adjacent street, and an installed Abus anchor in the ground provides secure storage for your bicycles right at the door.

Your leisure and recreation are also well catered for: Scenic paths through nature invite leisurely walks—whether to the charming Winandus Chapel in Frechen-Bachem, through the quiet Bachemer Forest, or past the peaceful courtyards of Frechen and Bachem. The popular Otto-Maigler Lake is also only a 15-minute bike ride away, perfect for a refreshing break.

Interior Design – With Historic Charm:

Inside, everything shines in a new light, as the plaster was completely renewed to create a flawless foundation for your new home. Special attention to detail is evident in the custom-made interior window sills crafted from solid oak, harmoniously paired with warm oak-click parquet flooring to create a delightfully uniform atmosphere.

Despite this extensive modernization, the historic charm of the house has been preserved, giving each room a unique character. Treasured features such as the original wooden staircase and exposed brick sections have been lovingly integrated into the new design to make the building’s history tangible. The result is a wonderful blend of the charm of bygone eras with contemporary, energy-efficient living comfort.
