Flat to rent 2+kk • 61 m² without real estateRathausplatz 28, , North Rhine-Westphalia

The house features a thermally insulated exterior facade and the attics are also fully insulated. The apartment has modern plastic windows with insulating glazing, with the windows facing the street equipped with noise-reducing glass. This is a well-maintained eight-family building in which only one- and two-person households live, resulting in a very quiet residence. In the basement, there are drying rooms and a designated space for tenants’ washing machines. Each apartment comes with its own separate tenant cellar.

The modern central gas heating system also provides hot water, which is metered with separate hot water meters so that everyone only pays for what they consume. Energy wasters such as instantaneous water heaters or under-sink storage water heaters are not present because the hot water supply is already included in the heating costs. The entrance door to the building was renewed some time ago. In this context, all apartments have been equipped with an intercom system. The staircase has windows and is therefore brightly lit. Access to the communal garden is provided from the basement.

The house at Rathausplatz 28 is located on the corner with Moltkestraße, directly opposite the tax office and diagonally across from the former post office in Hattingen. This is where the pedestrian zone of Moltkestraße begins, from which all shops in downtown Hattingen can be quickly reached on foot. In addition, the S-Bahn stop to Essen and the bus station at Reschop, with connections by bus and tram to Bochum and the surrounding neighboring towns, are reachable within a 10-minute walk. Behind the house, there is a small garden that can be accessed via a courtyard exit door and is shared by the residents of this building and the neighboring house at Moltkestraße 3. This garden is fenced in with a wall and is accessible and exclusively usable by the residents of the two houses. It is peaceful, green, and yet completely central.

The bathroom was completely modernized some time ago and renewed in all parts. It features a window, a bathtub, a separate shower, a toilet, and a washbasin. The sanitary fixtures are white, the wall tiles display a light marble pattern, and there is a blue tiled border all around. The bathroom is equipped with modern tiles, fixtures, and natural light.

The apartment was fundamentally renovated before move-in. The floor tiles in the kitchen and hallway, the wall tile cladding in the kitchen, all the electrical wiring including light switches and sockets, and a new sub-distribution panel in the apartment have been renewed, so that there are now plenty of electrical outlets in every corner. The interior doors and the apartment’s final doors were renewed as well. The painting work (new wallpapering in coarse textured wallpaper) with opaque white emulsion and fresh lacquer finishes was completely redone by a painting company before move-in, so that the painting work is overall brand new and freshly completed. The flooring in the living room and bedroom areas is to be installed by the tenant according to their own preferences, as these do not belong to the apartment. The subfloors have now been leveled by a flooring installer and provide a smooth, ready-to-install surface. Opposite the bathroom is the separate kitchen, which can either be placed on one side or arranged in a U-shape. In front of it is the large living room with its deep-set window structures, providing ample space for the living and dining area. The bedroom, which has access to the balcony, is reachable from the living room. The balcony is oriented toward the garden side along with the bedroom and receives sun from the east to the south in the morning until noon. With the many windows in every room, this is a bright, very cozy apartment.

For tenants in a two-person household, the additional monthly costs increase by €20.00, as water and waste disposal are billed per person. The total warm rent is then €755.00.

Keeping a dog in the apartment is not permitted.

The apartment is not suitable for shared occupancy.
