PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:

Are you looking for a move-in-ready, energy-efficient, future-proof home with a holiday atmosphere in your own garden—and would you also like to avoid paying an unnecessary estate agent’s commission? Then welcome to your new property on Schleiermacherweg!

Built in 1980 and extended in 1990 with a spacious conservatory, this detached house combines generous living space of approximately 200 m² with state-of-the-art technology. The property was upgraded to the latest energy standards as recently as 2025: a 16 kW Daikin heat pump, a 10 kWp photovoltaic system, and full air conditioning throughout the house guarantee minimal running costs and maximum living comfort in all weather conditions.

Ground Floor & Living Comfort:

Upon entering the house, your eye is immediately drawn to the elegant designer flooring in a classic herringbone pattern, newly installed in 2025, which gives the living and dining area a warm and sophisticated atmosphere. The absolute interior highlight is the luxurious five-star bathroom, renovated in the same year, featuring a walk-in rain shower, matte-black fittings, and large-format tiles. A charming guest WC in a classic country-house style perfectly complements this floor.

Upper Floor & Private Area:

A real standout feature on the top floor is the stunning studio room. Its fully glazed gable front floods the room with natural light and leads directly onto your private, sunny roof terrace overlooking the greenery—the perfect retreat for parents or teenagers, or an exclusive home office.

Garden & Outdoor Living:

The secluded plot of approximately 1,000 m² resembles a private luxury resort:

- Permanently installed outdoor pool with a cover for hot summer days

- Newly laid turf and a well-maintained garden pond

- Covered main terrace for unforgettable barbecues in any weather

- A spacious double garage with an electric sectional door completes the property

Basement & Party Room:

For sociable evenings, the fully equipped basement area, designed in a rustic pub style (“Sternstunden”), features a solid wood bar, beer tap system, bar stools, and an authentic pub atmosphere for celebrations with friends and family.

LEASEHOLD FINANCING OPPORTUNITY (150-YEAR ADVANTAGE)

The property stands on a leasehold plot of approximately 1,000 m², with a completely secure remaining lease term of 52 years (until 2078), making it straightforward for banks to finance over the long term.

The lease can easily be extended upon request. The possibility of purchasing the land may also be explored.

The major advantage for you as the buyer:

You do not have to purchase the land, which has a market value of approximately €200,000, thereby significantly reducing the equity required and the monthly interest payable to the bank. The ground rent is exceptionally low at just €1,668 per year (€139 per month).

By comparison, it would take 150 years of ground rent payments to equal the purchase price of the land! You are therefore acquiring 200 m² of living space, including a pool resort, at a price that would usually only buy a standard terraced house elsewhere.
