Flat to rent 2 bedroom • 58 m² without real estateKrämerstraße 9, , Rhineland-Palatinate

A small old town house with character – practical living on several levels

A private entrance, individually usable rooms, and a manageable household: This historic old town house offers a unique home for a single person or a couple. As the only apartment in the building, you enjoy the feeling of living in your own little house.

The approximately 50 m² of living space are spread over several levels. On the upper floor, you’ll find an open-plan kitchen and living area, a separate room, and the bathroom. The converted attic offers additional space for your personal setup: whether as a living room or a sleeping area – you decide which layout suits your daily life.

A particularly practical advantage is the additional utility room on the ground floor, which is about 8.45 m² in size. Here, laundry, beverage crates, household utensils, or a bicycle find their place. This way, the actual living areas remain free for living.

The compact size keeps cleaning and maintenance efforts manageable. This makes the house especially attractive for professionals who appreciate a cozy home and want to make the most of their free time.

The matured architecture and historical building details give the house its own personality. Its construction history goes back to the Baroque reconstruction and later modifications, even to parts of the building that are probably even older.

The separately accessible studio on the ground floor is not part of the rental apartment. It serves predominantly as an exhibition space and is rarely used.

Already in the Middle Ages, Oppenheim was a hub of European trade routes: this was where the connection between Basel and Cologne met the route from Paris via Metz towards Prague. The former imperial city still retains its special character today – with its historic alleys, vibrant wine culture, and the Gothic St. Catherine’s Church as an emblem.

The house is located in Krämerstraße in the heart of the Oppenheim old town. The market square with its gastronomy and events is conveniently within walking distance, while you live somewhat away from the immediate market square hustle. A coffee, a restaurant visit, or a glass of wine in the evening can easily become part of your everyday life.

As a regional center, Oppenheim offers comprehensive local facilities. In addition to the shops in the old town, larger shopping areas with supermarkets, drugstores, beverage markets, and a DIY store are available. Medical practices, pharmacies, and a TÜV testing center complement the practical infrastructure. Many daily errands can be accomplished on foot or by bicycle. The St. Catherine’s high school is also located in town.

For professionals, the location marries the benefits of living in a modest town with proximity to the Rhine-Main and Rhine-Neckar economic areas. The train station, reachable on foot, offers connections to Mainz, Worms, and Mannheim. Through the regional road and rail network, Wiesbaden, Frankfurt, Darmstadt, and Alzey are also accessible – depending on your destination by car or with transfers.

The cultural offerings range from concerts in St. Catherine’s Church to events in the old town, as well as theater, cabaret, and music at the Landskron castle ruin. The local cinema KommKi, the German Wine-growing Museum, and the wine cellar labyrinth provide further discoveries. Wine taverns, vintners, and diverse gastronomy make the Rhenish-Hessian lifestyle immediately tangible.

After work, the vineyards, the Rhine, and the Oppenheim woodlands invite you to unwind. The RheinTerrassenWeg and the Rhine cycle path offer opportunities for walks, hikes, and bike tours. In addition, there is the Rhine beach, pétanque courts, and a fitness trail. Water sports enthusiasts will appreciate a harbor with boat moorings and a canoe club; the local sport airfield further complements the leisure offerings.

A varied club life makes it easy to meet people and pursue personal interests. Among these are the Oppenheim Gymnastics Club (established 1846), the LG Rheinfront athletics community, tennis and soccer clubs, dance sports, archery, fishing, and water sports. Choirs, musical ensembles, the Landskron cultural association, the photography club, and the history society offer additional opportunities to get involved, as do the local traditional clubs.

A dedicated police station and the local public order office in Oppenheim take care of public safety and order on site.

Oppenheim is also the seat of the Rhein-Selz collective municipality administration: the citizen’s office and other administrative offices allow many bureaucratic tasks to be handled directly in town.

Thus, the location combines a historical atmosphere, practical facilities, and a varied leisure offer – attractive for people who organize their daily life well and consciously enjoy their free time.

The features of the apartment blend high-quality natural materials with practical everyday functionality. Natural stone, genuine wood, and clay shape the rooms and give the compact apartment a special living quality.

The bathroom is fitted with granite. Sandstone floors and genuine wooden parquet provide further high-quality accents. Clay-plastered walls with swamp lime paint, exposed masonry, and the historic staircase make the unique character of the house tangible. The genuine wooden ceilings installed on the ground and first floors complete these materials to create a harmonious overall picture.

Many windows ensure bright rooms. In the attic, the ceiling, which opens up to the gable, creates a spacious feeling. Whether used as a living area or a bedroom, the space can be arranged according to your own idea. The lighting concept, with its variable and indirect lighting options, supports different moods – from focused working to a relaxed evening.

The roof is completely thermally insulated; the sloping sections are lined on the interior with clay panels. The clay and lime surfaces used help to promote a homely atmosphere. The bathroom, kitchen, and attic each have their own separate ventilation to the outside. All windows are double-glazed. External shutters at the bedroom provide additional options for blackout.

The open-plan kitchen is equipped with a high-quality fitted kitchen. Heating is provided by an oil-fired central heating system with condensing technology. The water is heated by a continuous-flow water heater, making it independent of the heating operation.

Particularly practical is the separate utility room on the ground floor with a washing machine connection. Here, laundry, beverage supplies, tools, or a bicycle can be stored. The building’s technical equipment is also housed in this area. This way, the living spaces remain free for living.

As a possible future extension, the separately used exhibition space on the ground floor could be rented additionally. The room has its own entrance and could open up additional possibilities for personal interests. An additional rental would be possible subject to availability and a separate agreement.

Living as if in your own little house: You occupy the only apartment in the building, spread over several levels and with your own entrance. The separately accessible exhibition space on the ground floor is rarely used. This allows you a great deal of independence and privacy.

The compact apartment is particularly suitable for a single person or a couple who appreciate high-quality fittings, historical character, and a well-organized daily life. In particular, professionals benefit from the manageable maintenance effort and the central location.

Please note the layout over several levels: regular stair climbing is part of everyday living. The apartment is not barrier-free and is not very suitable for people in need of support. With small children, special attention must be paid to the stairs and their safety features.

A strictly indoor cat is possible by arrangement. For outdoor cats, the living situation is unsuitable.
