House for sale • 358 m² without real estate, Baden-Württemberg

Three-family house with an unoccupied ground floor and garden level apartment – ideal for owner-occupiers with rental income

In Pfaffenrot, this solid three-family house, built in 1978, is for sale. With a total living area of approximately 358 m² distributed across three separate residential units, the property offers an attractive combination of living and renting.

Particularly interesting: The spacious ground floor apartment, with about 132 m², is vacant and can be occupied immediately. The apartment features a large south-facing balcony of approximately 24 m² with a pleasant view towards Schielberg and Bad Herrenalb. An electric awning installed in 2024 provides welcome shade and additional comfort on sunny days. This way, you can enjoy living in your own home while two other units generate ongoing rental income.

The attic apartment offers a generous living space of approximately 123 m² and impresses with its particularly bright, light-filled rooms. A balcony of about 10 m², as well as a cozy wood stove, ensure additional living comfort and a pleasant residential atmosphere.

The directly accessible storage area, covering around 60 m², provides further potential for expansion.

The apartment is currently rented.

The garden level apartment comprises approximately 103 m² and features a terrace of about 24 m², its own garden, and a separate entrance. This apartment will be available from 01.02.2027, after which it will be available for owner-occupancy or new rental.

The current net cold rent of the two rented units totals 1,270 € per month.

All three residential units each come with their own fitted kitchen, a garage, and an additional outdoor parking space.

In 2020, the roof was comprehensively modernized, equipped with high-quality insulation and a new roof covering. The house is heated by an oil central heating system whose boiler and burner were renewed in 1998. The system works reliably and has been regularly maintained.

Whether as an owner-occupier with rental income or as an investor with development potential, this house offers many possibilities.

The house is located in Pfaffenrot, one of the three elevated villages of the Marxzell municipality in the Karlsruhe district. The area lies at approximately 390 meters above the Alb valley on the edge of the Northern Black Forest. Forests, meadows, and numerous hiking and cycling trails begin right at the doorstep. Life here is quiet and close to nature, without sacrificing the benefits of nearby cities.

Family and Education: The village has the Carl Benz primary school, where children are reliably cared for on weekdays, with an after-school program available in the afternoons. For families planning to occupy the vacant ground floor apartment, this is a major plus. Secondary schools can be found, among other places, in Ettlingen and Karlsbad.

Amenities: Pfaffenrot features a general medical practice, with additional doctors located in the surrounding villages. A supermarket offering daily necessities is reachable in about a 3-minute walk. Further shopping opportunities as well as a wide array of shops and services can be found in Ettlingen and Karlsruhe.

Transport Connections: Bus line 114 connects Pfaffenrot with Marxzell station. From there, the S1 tram runs directly through the Alb valley to Ettlingen and into central Karlsruhe. By car, Ettlingen is reached in approximately 15 minutes, and Karlsruhe and Pforzheim in about 25 minutes each.
