A residential location that is rarely found in the Ruhr Area.

The property is located in a quiet cul-de-sac in one of the most sought-after residential areas of Herten-Westerholt. The lightly trafficked access street ensures an exceptionally quiet and secure residential environment and offers ideal conditions for families, nature lovers, and anyone who values quality of life.

After just a few steps, you enter one of the most beautiful local recreation areas in the region. The Westerholter Forest is only about 100 meters away and practically merges into the former Löwenpark, the Gelsenkirchen-Buer city forest, as well as the extensive parklands around Schloss Berge. Kilometers of walking, hiking, and cycling paths wind through ancient tree stands and well-maintained green spaces, offering exceptional recreational value – right at your doorstep.

Just a few minutes on foot is the historic Westerholt Castle, one of the most beautiful water castles in the Recklinghausen district. Today, the castle houses an elegant castle hotel with an upscale restaurant and beer garden and, together with the adjacent Westerholt Golf Club, forms the social center of the district.

Immediately adjacent is the listed Old Village of Westerholt with its approximately 60 lovingly restored half-timbered houses, narrow alleys, and its very special historical flair. Traditional restaurants such as Gasthof Altes Dorf and Restaurant Alt Westerholt, as well as the popular KNEBELS ARKADE with its café, beer garden, and restaurant, invite you to linger. This unique historical ensemble gives Westerholt a charm that is unparalleled in the Ruhr Area.

In everyday life, the location also excels completely. Shopping opportunities, doctors, pharmacies, kindergartens, and schools are all within a short distance. The modern Martinischule is currently being newly constructed and is scheduled to commence operations in the 2027/2028 school year. In addition, further secondary schools in Herten and Gelsenkirchen can be reached quickly.

Despite the quiet residential area, commuters benefit from an excellent transport connection. The cities of Recklinghausen, Gelsenkirchen, Marl, Herne, Essen, and Bochum, as well as highways A2, A43, and A52, are reachable in a short time.

Living here means enjoying an extraordinary combination of nature, history, gastronomy, golf, recreation, and excellent infrastructure every day. It is exactly this rare connection that has made Herten-Westerholt one of the most sought-after residential areas in the northern Ruhr Area for many years.

This well-maintained property impresses with its solid masonry construction, a well-thought-out floor plan, numerous modernizations already carried out, and exceptionally high development potential. Many costly measures have already been implemented, providing an excellent foundation for future individual modernizations.
