Flat for sale 4+1 • 144 m² without real estateFrankfurt am Main Ostend Hessen 60314

Below is the English translation of the text:

This penthouse is located on the top floor of a modern residential building in Frankfurt’s Ostend. Completed in 2018, it has been kept in like-new condition throughout.

Key details first: 143.27 m² of living space, 4 rooms – including 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, an underground garage parking space, and two separate outdoor areas totaling over 31 m². One is a west-facing loggia with an unobstructed view of the Frankfurt skyline, and the other is a larger, quieter southeast terrace overlooking a landscaped inner courtyard.

What immediately stands out upon entering is the ceiling height: 3.00 meters in every room – unusually generous for an apartment and noticeable even in the smaller rooms. Together with the triple-glazed solid wood windows equipped with sound insulation, street noise is kept outside, making the apartment feel calm and bright rather than cramped. Since the apartment is on the top floor, you have no neighbors living above you.

The heart of the home is the spacious, nearly 49 m² living, dining, and kitchen area that spans the entire width of the apartment and leads directly to the west loggia. The open layout provides ample space for a generous seating area, a separate dining space, and even room for a home office or a play area – all without any dividing walls. The west loggia is equipped with an electric awning (3 x 3 m) – very practical on sunny afternoons when the skyline light streams in. The fitted kitchen is not included in the purchase price and can be discussed separately with the seller.

For retreat and privacy, there are three bedrooms. The largest, at almost 21 m², is the master bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom – truly private, not just a bathroom in the hallway. The other two bedrooms, approximately 14 m² and 13.5 m², both open onto the southeast terrace, receiving quiet morning light instead of street noise. Both bathrooms are equipped to the same high standard, and there is a separate guest WC – very practical when visitors come, so you don’t have to share the private bathrooms.

The layout is rounded off by a dedicated utility room for the washing machine and a nearly 15 m² corridor that connects everything. Only very little space is lost to pure circulation.

Overview of the room arrangement: Living/Dining/Cooking 48.81 m², Terrace 22.43 m², Bedroom 1 (Master Bedroom) 20.96 m², Corridor 14.59 m², Bedroom 2 14.01 m², Bedroom 3 13.55 m², Loggia 8.92 m², Bathroom 1 6.10 m², Bathroom 2 5.44 m², Utility Room 4.14 m² – totaling 143.27 m².

The building was constructed entirely barrier-free, with an elevator running directly from the underground parking to the front door of the apartment. It is ready to move in immediately.

Visually, the apartment is also well thought-out: flush-mounted interior doors and concealed skirting boards (Shadow Gap) create a neat, uncluttered overall appearance that suits both modern and classic interior styles equally. The continuous real wood parquet flooring runs through all living and sleeping areas, making the apartment feel warm and homely rather than cold and impersonal.

Energy-wise, the apartment is also in very good shape: Energy Efficiency Class A according to the KfW-55 standard means low heating costs and, in general, better terms when financing through KfW. The decision of the homeowners’ association also already permits the installation of balcony solar panels, so that a future owner can add this feature without having to obtain separate permission.

In short: a spacious, quiet apartment on the top floor with two different outdoor areas, unusually high ceilings, and a floor plan that meets the needs of both families who require extra space and couples who do not wish to compromise on living area.

The apartment is located in Frankfurt’s Ostend, in a kind of sandwich location between two parks: on one side, the Hafenpark right on the banks of the Main with sports facilities, a skate park, a basketball court, and a riverside promenade; on the other side, the considerably larger and more expansive Ostpark. Both are reachable within a few minutes on foot, which is unusual for such a central location.

The headquarters of the European Central Bank is only about 700 m away – a relaxed, roughly 10-minute walk. This is especially attractive for those who work there or nearby, and it is generally pleasant because it eliminates a long commute.

The connections are good: The U-Bahn and tram stop “Ostbahnhof” is about 300 m away, roughly a 5-minute walk. The S-Bahn station “Ostendstraße” is about a 9-minute walk. From there, you are about 6 minutes from the city centre (Hauptwache) and roughly 24 minutes from Frankfurt Airport. The motorways A661 and A66 can also be reached quickly by car.

Everyday needs within a radius of about 500 m are well covered: Alnatura, REWE, EDEKA, and dm are nearby, as well as pharmacies and doctors’ offices. The Elements Wellness Center is about a 5-minute walk away. For families, there is a bilingual daycare (Fintosch) nearby, and the connection to Frankfurt International School is good.

Ostend has undergone noticeable changes in recent years – it is now one of the city’s most sought-after neighbourhoods, precisely because it is central yet green without feeling like a pure business district. The mix of proximity to the ECB and the financial sector on the one hand, and the two large parks on the other, attracts both families and couples, as well as international professionals. Restaurants, cafés, and everyday shops are all within walking distance, so having a car is not essential in daily life – even though the motorway access is also quickly reachable if needed.

If you want to go jogging or take your dog out in the morning, you have two very different green options right at your door with Hafenpark and Ostpark: one more urban and sporty with views of the Main, the other more spacious and quiet. For children, the short distances to the daycare, school, and playgrounds make the neighbourhood very suitable, and the readily available basic medical care from family doctors and specialists also makes Ostend a part of the city where daily life can be easily organized without long commutes.

The location is also advantageous in terms of education: kindergartens, primary schools, as well as secondary schools (Haupt-, Real- and comprehensive schools as well as a grammar school) are available in the district, which is especially practical for families with children of various ages, without having to look in another district.

In summary, Ostend scores particularly high with shopping opportunities, public transport connections, and gastronomy, while simultaneously offering – thanks to the two adjacent parks – a level of nature and tranquility that is rarely found in comparably central Frankfurt locations.

[The most important features at a glance, categorized by area:

Building Features: 3.00 m ceiling height in all living and sleeping rooms – unusually generous for an apartment. Triple-glazed solid wood windows with enhanced sound insulation (sound insulation class IV) ensure a quiet interior. Flush-mounted interior doors and flush skirting boards (Shadow Gap) give the rooms a neat, high-quality appearance. Continuous real wood parquet flooring by Haro in all living and sleeping areas. Underfloor heating with individual room control, supplied via district heating.

Bathrooms: Two fully serviced bathrooms, both equipped with FANTINI fittings and Kartell by Laufen ceramics. The master bedroom features its own en-suite bathroom. Additionally, there is a separate guest WC, which is very practical for visitors without needing to use the private bathrooms.

Outdoor Areas: West loggia (approx. 8.92 m²) with an unobstructed skyline view and an electric awning (3 x 3 m). Southeast terrace (approx. 22.43 m²) with a view of the quiet, landscaped inner courtyard – ideal for those who want to have breakfast outdoors in the morning without sitting directly on the street side.

Security & Technology: Certified RC4 security door – a standard that is significantly above that of a normal apartment door. Complete CAT7 network cabling throughout the apartment. Digital video intercom system. Home automation controlling the electrical shutters. Fiber-optic internet is available, with a choice between three different providers.

Energy: Energy Efficiency Class A according to KfW-55 standard, with a calculated final energy demand of 48.9 kWh/(m²·a). This means low ongoing heating costs and, generally, easier access to low-interest KfW promotional loans. The homeowners’ meeting has officially approved the installation of balcony solar panels – a future owner can retrofit this without additional approval.

Storage & Parking: An underground garage parking space, pre-wired for the installation of an EV charging station (wallbox). A personal basement storage unit that is larger than the usual standard, offering unusually high additional storage space. The building also provides lockable bicycle storage rooms.

Building & Community: Elevator serving all floors, allowing access to the apartment without using stairs. The entire building was constructed barrier-free in 2018. A shared, traffic-free garden with a playground is available for residents – a real asset for families with young children without having to leave the property.

Other features according to the property documents: Balcony, terrace, garden, cellar, roof terrace access, elevator, full bathroom, shower room, fitted kitchen (not included in the purchase price), separate guest WC, completely barrier-free.

To put it into perspective as to why these details make a difference in practice: The 3.00 m ceiling height is a unique feature on this floor compared to the apartments on the lower levels of the building, making even medium-sized rooms feel significantly more spacious. The combination of the RC4 door and video intercom corresponds to a level of security typically found in upscale new builds. And the pre-wiring for a wallbox at the parking space means that switching to an electric car is possible without major structural modifications – an aspect that also gains importance upon resale.
