House for sale 5+1 • 108 m² without real estateHamburg Volksdorf Hamburg 22359

Here is the complete translation:

Some houses make an immediate impression: This style-defining Kaffeemühle building from 1933 wasn’t renovated for a quick resale, but rather transformed into a permanent living space for one’s own retirement. Every detail, every pipe, and every material was chosen without any budget compromises in favor of durability, highest craftsmanship, and aesthetics. The fact that this property is now on the market is solely due to a change in personal circumstances – and it offers discerning buyers the rare opportunity to take over an absolutely dreamlike, move-in ready, fully renovated home. We ourselves lived there for hardly a year after the renovation. Thus, it feels just like a first occupancy.

Every core installation – all fresh water pipes, the sewage line up to the street, the complete electrical system of the house as well as the hot water system including circulation for immediate hot water at every tap – has been completely replaced without interruption.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a vestibule featuring original English floor tiles. On the ground floor, an elaborately restored and masterfully laid herringbone oak parquet exudes elegant charm, framed by classic Hamburg skirting boards and new, sound- and heat-insulated ceilings. The open-plan living kitchen, opened up by a structural steel beam, is a masterpiece of carpentry: Equipped with a Quooker (100°C boiling water), a Miele induction cooktop with downdraft ventilation, a Neff oven with a fully retractable Slide&Hide® door and pyrolysis, an additional Neff compact oven with microwave, a Miele XXL dishwasher with AutoDos, as well as an integrated Siemens refrigerator and a separate wine cooling cupboard – it sets new standards. In the living area, a Hörmann steel door creates modern architectural accents, while the new skantherm design stove (6.5 kW, energy class A) provides comfortable radiant heat.

Up the staircase you reach the upper floor, where completely sanded and sealed pitch pine wooden floorboards of timeless beauty await. The master shower room resembles a private wellness oasis: A solid wood washbasin unit with a seamless Corian® basin from Riluxa, elegant Dornbracht fixtures, a Villeroy & Boch toilet with a touch-free Geberit Sigma80 flush system, an industrial loft glass door, and a heated anti-fog light mirror create everyday luxury. Cozy underfloor heating warms the kitchen, bathroom, and guest WC.

The completely gutted basement has been converted into a full-fledged, heated living and guest area. A special highlight is its own sauna and wellness room, which comes prepared with a shower, lifting system, and a high-voltage fuse box.

The attic (approx. 54 m² floor area, 2.94 m at the eaves) still offers outstanding expansion potential if desired.

Exterior, Technology & Security:

The outdoor area has been newly designed with a spacious sun terrace complete with a new electric awning. The solid log cabin in the garden has received a new roof including gutters. For permanent protection of the building’s structure, there is a perimeter drainage with a soakaway basin and an insulated plinth zone. The smart home lighting (Philips Hue inside and throughout the entire garden), Reolink security cameras, and the Gira video intercom system with smartphone connectivity offer state-of-the-art security. The electrified garage features an insulated electric garage door as well as a 400V high-voltage connection (prepared for a wallbox). In addition, the electrical cable for an automatic driveway gate has already been buried.

Since a short description can hardly do justice to this attention to detail, we are happy to send you our detailed exposé along with a complete overview of the renovation and equipment upon request. See it for yourself on-site and feel free to arrange your personal viewing appointment.
