Possible measures include: a first coat of paint (since only new wallpaper has been applied), possibly renewing the floors, and possibly updating the sanitary/bathroom fittings.

Layout:

The room layout is based on the upper floor but is complemented by a charming dormer on the southeast side, which allows additional natural light and creates a pleasant living ambiance. An additional benefit of this apartment is the separate storage room in the stairwell – ideal for household items or seasonal belongings. Furthermore, the spacious attic is available, which can be used in various ways and provides valuable extra storage space.

Expansion potential:

The attic offers attractive expansion potential—it has not yet been used. Due to the high-quality roof insulation and a central height of over 2 meters in the attic (see cross-sectional drawing), it could be converted into an extra guest room or living space.
