Core Refurbished Period Property Jewel with Heat Pump, Photovoltaics, and a Spacious Family Garden

This detached residence, built in 1890, combines the character of a classic old building with the advantages of a comprehensive core refurbishment carried out in 2020. High ceilings, exposed wooden beams, and solid brick walls impart the house with its unmistakable charm. At the same time, modern building services and high-quality features ensure contemporary living comfort.

Across approximately 185 m² of living space, a generous layout is spread over three levels. The heart of the home is the roughly 55 m² open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area. Large windows, a ceiling height of nearly three meters, and views of lush greenery create an extraordinary sense of space and a bright, inviting atmosphere.

The high-end kitchen seamlessly integrates into the open living concept, forming the natural centerpiece of the house – ideal for family life as well as for enjoyable evenings with friends.

On the upper floor, you will find a generous master bedroom, an office or dressing room, as well as another room that can be used flexibly. The spacious daylight bathroom features a bathtub, a shower, and a double washbasin.

The attic level offers two children’s rooms, an additional room suitable as a hobby, guest or work area, as well as a second daylight bathroom with a shower. Moreover, connections have already been prepared to broaden the options for future use.

A fixed staircase leads to the loft with standing headroom, which offers additional storage possibilities.

The house is fully basemented, providing approximately 65 m² of additional usable space. The basement, built in keeping with the original construction period, serves as a classic storage, workshop, and utility area. It is not intended for use as living space.

The approximately 550 m² plot combines sunny open spaces, a family-friendly design, and numerous charming details. The focal point of the outdoor area is the spacious south/southwest terrace of about 40 m². A high-quality terrace roof made of solid wood with laminated safety glass allows for use almost regardless of the weather and, together with the manually operated sun sails, creates an outdoor area that is both sheltered and bright. The main terrace is complemented by an additional, approximately 10 m² shaded terrace which provides a pleasant retreat, especially on hot summer days.

A large public playground is located in the immediate vicinity, making the location particularly attractive for families with children.

The property is ideal for families, home office users, or anyone looking to combine character, spaciousness, and modern technology. It is situated in one of the most sought-after residential areas in southern Solingen. The environment offers a quiet and family-friendly living setting combined with excellent infrastructure. Shopping facilities, schools, kindergartens, doctors, as well as sports and leisure activities are quickly accessible. Public transportation is excellent with a central bus line providing a direct connection between Aufderhöhe and Ohligs just steps away, while the highways toward Düsseldorf, Cologne, and Wuppertal are also easily reachable. The combination of tranquil living, short distances, and excellent accessibility has made the location highly desirable for many years.
