House for sale 4+1 • 110 m² without real estateRügenstr. 7, , Lower Saxony

This single-family house in the "island district" of Schortens is move-in ready—you can settle in without needing to renovate first.

It was built around 1961 and has retained the character of that era: generous ceiling heights and the beautiful rounded arch between the living and dining area. Everything else has been gradually updated over the past fifteen years. New windows, a new heating system, a complete renovation of all rooms in 2017, a refurbished roof, and most recently an extension added in 2023.

On the ground floor, the living room, kitchen-dining area, and the bright extension flow seamlessly together. Both the kitchen and the extension have direct access to the covered terrace. In the living room there is a fireplace stove—which is certainly a benefit on a damp, cold November evening in Friesland. Also on the ground floor are a hallway, corridor, and a WC/bathroom.

Upstairs, tucked under the roof, are the bedrooms and a child’s room, both set quietly to the side, along with a corridor and a storage room. The shower bathroom was completely redone in 2017 and had its floor renewed in 2024.

According to the official building calculation, the living area amounts to 110.19 m² (ground floor: 76.63 m², attic: 33.56 m²). In addition, there are two basement rooms—one of which houses a gas condensing boiler from 2012—and outdoor storage rooms.

The property sits on 748 m² of land. It is located on a leasehold property owned by the city of Schortens, with a lease fee of 86.03 euros per month. For those interested, the property can currently be purchased from the city for 82,000 euros.

Outside, there is a low-maintenance garden, the covered terrace (added in 2021), and a paved driveway that can accommodate up to four cars or a motorhome.

The house is equally suitable for a small family as for a couple or singles who desire space and a private garden without having to move far from the city.

The sale is conducted privately and directly by the owner. This means that the typical buyer’s commission of 3.57 percent (around 6,780 euros at this price) is eliminated. The price is negotiable.

Schortens is located in the Friesland district, has over 21,000 inhabitants, and continues to grow. The island district is one of the city’s most sought-after residential areas: quiet streets, plenty of greenery, and a well-established community. Still, the city centre remains only a few minutes away.

The surroundings are ideally laid out for families. Schools, daycares, and playgrounds are within walking distance. The Klosterpark is just a few minutes away on foot, and both the Schortens outdoor swimming pool and a dog park are nearby. Supermarkets and other shopping facilities can be reached in just a few minutes.

Additionally, there’s something not many cities can offer: Schortens is a state-recognized spa town. Practically speaking, this means you can even shop on Sundays and public holidays.

The transport connections are excellent. Jever, Wilhelmshaven, and the surrounding areas are quickly and easily accessible. After work, if you fancy heading to the water, you can quickly drive to Hooksiel or to Wilhelmshaven’s South Beach. The North Sea is only a few kilometers away.

The house itself is located on Rügenstraße, a quiet residential street with no through traffic. The property is fenced towards the street and the driveway is paved.
