Flat to rent 3+kk • 93 m² without real estateMoltkestraße 3, , North Rhine-Westphalia

It is a well-maintained eight-family residential building in which mostly one- and two-person households live, making it a very quiet building. In the basement there are two drying rooms and a designated space for a washing machine where tenants can place their own appliance. Each apartment also includes its own tenant cellar.

The modern gas central heating system in the building also provides hot water, which is metered by separate hot water meters so that everyone only pays for what is actually consumed. Energy guzzlers such as instantaneous water heaters or under-counter storage water heaters are therefore not present, since the hot water supply is already included in the heating costs. The building features a thermally insulated exterior facade and the attics are also fully insulated, thereby achieving very good energy consumption ratings. The apartment is equipped with modern plastic windows with insulating glazing. Additionally, the building has a new main entrance door with an intercom system available in every apartment.

The building at Moltkestraße 3 is located in the pedestrian zone near the former main post office in Hattingen. This is where the pedestrian zone of Moltkestraße begins, from which all shops in the center of Hattingen can be reached on foot very quickly. The S-Bahn stop for the line towards Essen and the bus station at Reschop can also be reached on foot in 10 minutes. Behind the building there is a small garden, accessible via a courtyard door. It is quiet, green, and yet completely central. Tenants living there can, upon application, receive a resident parking permit from the city and can thus park almost right at the doorstep at Rathausplatz. The resident parking permit is subject to a fee.

The bathroom features a window, a bathtub, a separate shower tray, a wall-hung toilet with a concealed cistern, and a washbasin. The bathroom was completely renovated some time ago. The sanitary enamel is white with corresponding modern wall tiling. From the hallway, all rooms are accessible separately. Next to the bathroom is the separate kitchen, and in front is a spacious, continuous dining or study room seamlessly connected to the living area with a pass-through. This very generous open-plan living-dining area spans around 44 m² of living space. From here, you can access the two balconies belonging to the apartment: one balcony, accessible from the dining area, faces the pedestrian zone, and one balcony, accessible from the living area, faces the garden with a southwest orientation. Adjacent to these are the children’s or study room and, at the front right, the bedroom.

Both the children’s room and the bedroom also face the garden, i.e. they are quiet. The apartment underwent a complete renovation at the beginning of 2024. At that time the tiled floors in the hallway and the kitchen were renewed. The entire electrical installation was expanded so that there are now plenty of power outlets along all wall surfaces in every room. The sub-distribution panel with the fuses and RCD switches is located in the entrance hall of the apartment. Additionally, just two years ago a painting company re-wallpapered all wall and various ceiling surfaces with a coarse textured paper and freshly painted them in a binder shade of white, including the renewal of the radiator finishes and the finishes on woodwork such as doors and door frames – meaning that the apartment is professionally renovated in every respect and handed over to the new tenant. The current tenants can, by agreement, leave the self-installed laminate floors within the apartment as well as the fitted kitchen shown in the pictures.

Due to the many large windows, some of which extend quite far down in all rooms of the apartment, this is a very bright apartment with ample storage space, a well-proportioned floor plan, and a very large open-plan living-dining area with two balconies.

The service charge prepayments mentioned in this advertisement have been calculated for 2 persons. Since many types of operating costs in the building are charged per person, the service charge prepayments decrease by €25.00 per month to a total of €200.00 (including heating and hot water) when the apartment is used by only 1 person, and when occupied by 3 persons the service charge prepayment increases by €30.00 per month to a total of €255.00. For each additional person, an extra €30.00 per month is added as a prepayment.

Keeping a dog in the apartment is not permitted. The apartment is not suitable for a shared living arrangement.

An above-average large living-dining area with about 44 m² of space and a very spacious bedroom reveal the generosity of this not-everyday apartment with its two balconies.

The floor plan provided here is that of the ground-floor apartment, which has only one balcony. However, on the 2nd floor there is a second balcony located in front of the dining area (labeled as the living area in the floor plan).
