Others with their architecture.

Only a few combine history, a view, and development potential in a way that connects different lifestyles.

This historic estate, dating from 1898, is located in Cochem with a view of the Reichsburg. For decades, the building has been continuously maintained and modernized. Today, the house presents itself as a well-kept three-family home with three separate apartments, generous ancillary areas, and a plot that offers room for various usage concepts.

For Capital Investors

The property offers a solid foundation for long-term oriented investors.

Two of the three residential units are rented, while one apartment is currently vacant and can be immediately occupied or newly rented.

The existing rental agreements have been in place for many years and do not reflect the current market level, thereby creating medium- to long-term development opportunities.

Additionally, the prepared structure for a future certificate of separability offers the possibility of a flexible division and potential individual sale.

For Owner-Occupiers

The property offers a rare combination of owner occupancy and additional financial stability.

The freshly renovated upper floor apartment is immediately available and is ideal as a primary residence.

At the same time, the two other residential units provide a continuous income stream, allowing living and investing to be meaningfully combined.

Development Potential (Holiday Rental & Structuring)

The location in Cochem, along with the view of the Reichsburg, opens up – subject to public and private legal approvals – interesting perspectives for future use in the area of holiday rentals.

The existing structure of three separate residential units provides a suitable starting point.

Furthermore, the preparation for obtaining a certificate of separability has already been completed. The declaration of division can be flexibly designed after purchase, allowing attic and basement areas to be individually allocated.
