House to rent 5+1 • 140 m² without real estate, North Rhine-Westphalia

The terraced house offered for rent has a width of 6.74 metres, making it feel more like a semi-detached house. It was built in 1979 and has been continuously maintained and partly modernised; see the features listed below.

The total living area of approximately 140 m² comprises five rooms, a bathroom, a guest WC, and a spacious terrace, spread across the ground floor, first floor, and converted attic.

The converted basement includes a hobby room, an adjoining separate workshop, a boiler room, and a separate shower, providing approximately 50 m² of additional usable space.

The secluded, level, rectangular plot with mature trees measures approximately 238 m² and can be used to excellent effect.

There is space for two to three cars in the single garage next to the house, on the parking space in front of it, and on an additional parking space on the property.

The house is located in a well-maintained, traffic-calmed terraced housing development in Bergisch Gladbach (Bensberg/Refrath), directly on a quiet residential play street lined with attractive municipal trees.

Bergisch Gladbach-Bensberg/Refrath is one of the most sought-after locations in the city.

The nearby A4 and A3 motorways provide access within 15–20 minutes to the centres of Cologne and Bergisch Gladbach, the scenic Bergisches Land region, and Cologne/Bonn Airport.

Shops for everyday necessities are within a 5–10-minute walk.

The tram stop is approximately a five-minute walk away. Schools and Bensberg city centre are only two to three stops away. The tram journey to Cologne’s Old Town takes around 25 minutes.

The Otto Hahn secondary school and grammar school are also within easy reach, as are the nationally renowned Mediterana spa and the Saaler Mühle recreational area with its extensive woodland.

The large Königsforst forest, only a ten-minute walk away, is ideal for hiking, walking, and cycling.

The property already features modern double-glazed PVC windows, a new modern condensing gas boiler, and a renewed, double-insulated roof.

The exterior of the house was renovated several years ago and is therefore very well maintained. The entrance canopy and front door have been replaced, and the garage has undergone extensive refurbishment.

The kitchen, ground-floor hallway, and guest WC are finished with high-quality tiles, while solid wood parquet flooring has been installed in the living/dining room.

The bedroom and children’s rooms feature high-quality laminate flooring.

Additional features include electric roller shutters with timers throughout the ground floor, lockable security fittings on the ground-floor windows and doors, and a large garden terrace with an awning.

The property is rented in its current, unrenovated condition.

The security deposit is equivalent to three months’ net rent, excluding utilities.

The tenant pays electricity, gas, and water charges directly to the respective utility providers.

Optionally, a cable connection can be activated directly with the provider for €21 per month.
