The villa was built in 1892 and is lovingly maintained and in excellent structural condition. It is not under monument protection—a rare opportunity for lovers of historic buildings!

You enter the house through a wonderfully light-filled entrance veranda and arrive in a representative entrance hall from which you can access the ground floor rooms and the two apartments on the upper floors. The ground floor comprises three interconnected rooms and a living kitchen with a view of the garden. – Through a small corridor you reach the cloakroom area, the guest WC, and the staircase to the garden. From here, another staircase leads to the basement, where, among other things, the sauna with its own sanitary and bathroom area is located. From here you can exit separately into the beautifully designed garden.

The upper floor consists of four rooms, a large bright bathroom with a dressing area, and a separate toilet. A separate guest WC is located on the way to the upper floor.

The attic, with three rooms and a living kitchen, is fully finished; it features an air-conditioned bedroom, a bright bathroom, and a roof terrace with a view of the garden.

The house will be available without major renovation work from June 1st and is completely available. It is excellently suited for multi-generational living or for a larger family. In any case, the attic apartment can also be rented out separately quite well.

The historic villa is located in the well-known town of Remscheid in the Bergisches Land, in a quiet and highly sought-after residential area with many historic buildings near the city park. Martin-Luther-Straße is a traffic-calmed one-way street in a 30 km/h zone. The city centre with the large shopping centre “Allee-Center” is reachable on foot within five minutes. In about a 40-minute drive, via the A1 or A46 highways, you can comfortably reach the cities of Cologne and Düsseldorf.

The location offers excellent infrastructure, also in terms of shopping facilities in the surrounding smaller stores on the neighbouring Hindenburgstraße, as well as schools and medical services. The area around Remscheid is rich in forests and invites extended walks, mountain biking, or hiking. The many hiking trails in the area will take you, among other things, to Germany’s highest railway bridge, the “Müngstener Brücke”, or to “Schloss Burg”, the former seat of the Count of Berg. – A high recreational value is also provided by the numerous reservoirs easily reachable in the Bergisches Land (Bever, Neye, Dhünn, or the Eschbacher reservoir).

Masonry in double-shell solid construction

The roof and the façade were renovated in 2013. The unique entrance veranda was painstakingly reconstructed together with a glass artist using motifs from Art Nouveau. The floor tiles—as well as many other details inside the house (parquet floors, doors, frames, wall and floor tiles, lighting) and especially the stucco—have been preserved in very good original condition from the Gründerzeit, giving the house an incomparable, unique charm.

The floors on the two upper levels are already equipped with impact sound insulation and are partly tiled or fitted with carpet, laminate (in the attic) as appropriate.

The gas condensing heating system was renewed in 2012 and is regularly maintained. The domestic hot water is heated electrically. The cast iron radiators on the ground floor and first floor, as well as their coverings, are still in their original condition and function perfectly. The electrical wiring was updated in 1982, 1985, and 2000, and all the windows have also been replaced.

The separate apartment in the attic was renovated around 2010. The attic bedroom is equipped with an air conditioner. The loft (ceiling above the attic) already features blown-in insulation for thermal efficiency. The space is very suitable for use as a storage room and also includes an additional expanded room.

The exterior masonry has an interior 4 cm air gap and can be further insulated with blown-in insulation if desired.

The house is secured by an alarm system.
