Flat for sale 4+1 • 119 m² without real estate, North Rhine-Westphalia

This is where a newspaper was made. These rooms once housed the editorial offices of the Hertener Allgemeine Zeitung. Today, they have been transformed into an apartment: 119 m² on the first floor of a corner building dating from 1900, with a period stucco façade and tall wooden windows.

Anyone moving in here does not want to live on the outskirts, but right in the heart of town. And they do not want a new build, but a building with a history.

There is no renovation work for you to do. Everything was refurbished in 2026: floors, walls, electrical wiring, plumbing, radiators and bathroom. You can design the kitchen according to your own preferences. All connections are ready.

The rooms:

• Living and dining area, 32 m², with bay window and windows on two sides

• Kitchen, 15 m², with a wide opening to the living area

• Bedroom, 21 m²

• Two additional rooms, 15 and 12 m²: suitable as a study, guest room or library

• Bathroom, 11 m², with natural light and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower

• Hallway, 10 m², and storage room

You share the building entrance with just one other household.

There is nothing else like it: a corner building dating from 1900, two households sharing the entrance, and a former newsroom.

Ongoing costs: monthly service charge of €453. Of this, €312 covers heating and hot water (district heating), and €43 goes into the maintenance reserve. The owners’ association has reserves of approximately €110,000, of which around €11,400 is attributable to this apartment.

Some photos have been virtually furnished and are labelled accordingly. Furniture and kitchen units are not included in the purchase price. The original unfurnished photos can also be found in the gallery.

€269,000, commission-free. Send us a brief message telling us who would like to move in. You will immediately receive the floor plan, energy performance certificate, budget plan and refurbishment summary.
