Flat to rent 3+1 • 100 m² without real estate, North Rhine-Westphalia

Property Description

This stylish apartment is located on the first floor of a listed half-timbered building in the heart of Sendenhorst. With a generous living space of approximately 100 m², the unit offers a unique interplay between historical construction and high-quality, modern living. The charming building dates back to an era when half-timbered constructions were built not only for practical reasons but also for their aesthetic appeal – a love for detail that is still evident in the impressive facade today.

The apartment itself has been completely refurbished and extensively modernized on the inside, while preserving the charm of the old building and combining it with the amenities of contemporary living. High ceilings provide a grand sense of space, while exquisite solid wood parquet flooring in all the living areas ensures coziness and warmth. Characteristic mullioned windows allow plenty of natural light into the rooms and offer a beautiful view of the garden.

Special attention has been paid to the selection of materials. The newly renovated sanitary areas – a separate guest toilet as well as a modern shower room – impress with stylish fittings and timeless, elegant design. All rooms are harmoniously arranged and ideally suited for singles, couples, or even a home office.

A particularly special highlight is the communal garden featuring an impressive bronze statue of Cardinal Clemens August Graf von Galen – a silent witness from history with significant historical importance, which adds an extraordinary aura to the property. This apartment is not merely a home but an experience of living with a story.

Location Description

The apartment is situated in a prime location right in the center of Sendenhorst, a charming town in the heart of Münsterland. As a historically developed community with approximately 13,000 inhabitants, Sendenhorst offers a harmonious blend of rural idyll and urban infrastructure. The residential area is characterized by its immediate proximity to all daily necessities: supermarkets, pharmacies, doctors, cafés, restaurants, and small boutiques are all conveniently within walking distance.

The marketplace, with its lively atmosphere, lies just a few steps away and regularly hosts weekly markets, cultural events, and neighborhood gatherings. Despite its central location, the residents of the half-timbered building enjoy tranquility and privacy – the landscaped inner courtyard and the traffic-calmed street contribute significantly to this.

In terms of infrastructure, the location is excellently connected. The larger nearby city of Münster is accessible via the well-developed B58 and public transportation in about 25 minutes. Bus connections to the region and a solid network of cycle paths in Münsterland make the location attractive for commuters as well.

For nature enthusiasts, the surrounding area offers numerous opportunities for relaxation. Whether it’s leisurely walks in the nearby forests, cycling tours along the Werse, or visits to historical churches and mills – Sendenhorst invites you to explore. Local schools, kindergartens, and a vibrant community life complete the offerings, making this location attractive for both younger and older residents.

Remarks on the Features

This apartment remarkably combines the atmosphere of an older building with the comfort of modern new constructions. Upon entering, the high-quality fixtures immediately catch the eye: genuine oak parquet with a strip design flows throughout all the living areas, creating a pleasant living climate. The ceiling height is above average and, together with the large, historically restored mullioned windows, creates an airy, light-filled ambiance.

The bathroom has been recently renovated and outfitted with high-quality materials. Here you will find a spacious, level-access shower with a tempered glass partition, modern fixtures, and tastefully chosen tiles in natural tones. In addition, there is a separate guest toilet – ideal for when visitors come by or if you wish to maintain a separation between work and private life.

The kitchen is open-plan and designed adjacent to the living area, offering numerous possibilities for modern kitchen concepts. All necessary connections are in place and everything is maintained in an attractive condition. The well-kept staircase, elegantly adorned with sandstone, leads you directly to your private floor, which houses only a few units within the building.

The heating system has been set for energy-efficient operation and provides comfortable warmth via wall-mounted radiators. The windows and insulation meet the standards for a listed building – with particular attention paid to balancing energy efficiency with historical preservation.

The apartment on offer is particularly suitable for discerning tenants in search of something extraordinary. Here, you are not just renting an apartment, but a piece of history that has been lovingly modernized. Due to its listed status, the property is exempt from the requirement of an energy certificate – instead, the architectural value and the uniqueness of the building take center stage.

A special highlight is the communal garden, where the bronze statue of Cardinal von Galen is located. This artistic installation is not only an eye-catcher but also a cultural monument deeply intertwined with the town’s history.

The rental is managed directly by the owner, who places great importance on a long-term, respectful tenancy. A comprehensive credit check is part of the application process – please understand that only complete applications including name and income details can be considered.

Parking options are available in the immediate vicinity, with public parking spaces and resident parking permits provided. The apartment will be completed by June 15th and can be viewed by appointment.

We cordially invite you to a personal viewing appointment, during which you can experience for yourself the exceptional living quality of this unique property.
