Flat for sale 1 bedroom • 33 m² without real estateRosmarinstr. 22 Düsseldorf Flingern Nordrhein-Westfalen 40235

Here is the English translation of the text:

This condominium in the Düsseldorf district of Flingern is available for the first time after over twenty years of continuous use. It will be delivered vacant and is therefore suitable both for owner-occupiers and as an investment.

The layout is unusually spacious for approximately 33 square meters. The living area measures about 26 square meters in one continuous space and can clearly be divided into sleeping, living, and working areas without feeling cramped. A terrace door leads out onto the balcony. In addition, there is a bathroom and a small hallway.

The apartment faces east and thus towards the quiet side, not the street. In the morning, the sun shines upon the balcony. Anyone who has lived on a through street in an inner-city location knows the value of that.

Regarding the condition – completely open so you can save yourself the trip to view it if it doesn’t suit you: The apartment is located on the 3rd floor; the building does not have an elevator. Since the ground floor is designed as a raised ground floor, there are only a few flights from the entrance, but stair climbing is still required. The strip parquet in the living area is noticeably worn and has never been sanded down because the apartment has never been empty. The full wear layer is still present, and a sanding will restore it to a like-new condition. The bathroom is well-maintained. The fitted kitchen remains in the apartment and is fully functional, though it is not visually top-notch. I do not include it in the price or only upon request.

The apartment was last painted in January 2026. The wooden windows are currently being sanded, re-lacquered, and provided with new seals at the expense of the homeowners’ association. The contractor appointment has already been scheduled.

The building dates from 1994 and is in remarkably good condition because the community persistently maintains it instead of postponing maintenance. The central heating was completely renewed in 2016. In recent years, among other things, the fire alarm system has been updated, both wastewater pumps in the underground garage have been replaced, and the underground garage has been re-sealed. All of this was financed from the maintenance reserve, without any special assessments. The energy consumption certificate indicates 94 kWh per square meter and year, efficiency class C.

The apartment includes its own cellar storage room and an underground parking space. The sale is commission-free and directly from the owner.

Flingern has been one of Düsseldorf’s most sought-after neighborhoods for years. The district is characterized by young professionals, singles, and couples, interspersed with long-time residents. The result is a mix that works.

Local supply is practically complete within walking distance. On Bruchstraße there is a REWE and a Lidl, each about 250 meters away; the REWE is open until midnight on weekdays. An ALDI SÜD on Gaußstraße follows at about 400 meters. Directly on Rosmarinstraße there is also a beverage market with a kiosks assortment, which is open on Sundays and offers parcel acceptance. Pharmacies, bakeries, and eateries are located within the same radius.

In terms of connectivity: The Rosmarinstraße bus stop is about 150 meters away and is served by line 738 as well as by the NE5 at night. The tram 709 and several subway lines are about an 8-minute walk away. The Düsseldorf-Flingern S-Bahn station is reachable in about twelve minutes on foot and takes you to the main station in just a few minutes, or in the other direction to Gerresheim. With a car, you can quickly reach the A46 via the Südring – making it easy to get to the airport or the A3.

Cyclists will find it especially convenient: The inner city and Kö are flat and reachable in about ten minutes, as are the Hofgarten and the Rhine promenade. About 800 meters west, Hoffeldstraße begins; together with Ackerstraße it forms the unofficial main artery of the neighborhood with cafés, small shops, galleries, and restaurants. Addresses such as Café Hüftgold, Café Kleinod, Sattgrün, and Jaenner Modern Coffee are known beyond Flingern. It’s well worth the effort for a weekend breakfast.

In the past years, the district has visibly improved. Former commercial and industrial areas have been converted into residential quarters, which has led to new infrastructure without displacing the traditional character. It is precisely this combination of substance and development that makes the location interesting for a long-term investment.

The residential complex itself is set back in a quiet section of Rosmarinstraße. The apartment faces east towards the inner courtyard and is thus shielded from street traffic. The complex includes well-maintained garden areas in the courtyard.

My recommendation: Take a look at the location yourself before the viewing. Anyone who knows Flingern understands that the streets vary greatly – this is one of the quiet ones.

Regarding the process: I am selling as the owner myself and without an agent. This way, you save the usually applicable buyer’s commission of 3.57 percent in North Rhine-Westphalia – which amounts to around €5,900 at this purchase price. The notarization will take place at a notary of your choice in Düsseldorf.

The sale of the condominium and the special usage right for the underground parking space is conducted together. Separate sales are not possible according to the declaration of division.

For contact: Please write to me via the contact form and briefly mention whether you are buying for self-occupancy or as an investment and provide a brief outline of your financing. A financing confirmation or proof of equity is not a prerequisite for the viewing, but it does significantly expedite everything afterwards. I try to conduct viewings individually and on a one-to-one basis, though I cannot always guarantee this.

I kindly ask that agents and purchase inquiries from real estate companies refrain from contacting me. A sale via third parties is not planned, and I will not respond to corresponding inquiries.

All information is based on details from the property management, the owner’s documents, and my own knowledge as a resident. The information is provided to the best of my knowledge, however, without any guarantee. Only the notarized purchase contract is binding.
