House for sale 5+1 • 160 m² without real estateKrefeld Bockum Nordrhein-Westfalen 47800

This unique detached single-family house with a double garage, two additional parking spaces, and a lovingly landscaped garden is located at the end of a quiet private street in the upscale residential area of Krefeld-Bockum, just a 20-minute drive from Düsseldorf.

The architect opted for a clinker construction combined with a modern half-timbered structure, using high-quality field-fired bricks from an old mill both on the interior and exterior. This gives the house its unmistakable exterior appearance and a cozy charm inside. The clever positioning of the windows and the floor-to-ceiling glass facade, which opens onto the garden, ensures the entire living area is bathed in light, with the sun’s rays seemingly bringing the colors of the field-fired bricks to life. One of the many architectural highlights is the view into the up to 7-meter-high attic with an open gallery in the house’s living area.

The barrier-free ground floor features, in addition to the open living/dining area with one of its two fireplaces, a kitchen, a bedroom (or office), a bathroom with a shower and window, and a separate access to the dry basement, which provides ample (parking) space with its five rooms.

The upper floor comprises three (bed)rooms and a second fully equipped bathroom with windows (including two sinks, a bathtub, a shower, a toilet, and a bidet).

The sunny orientation of the spacious garden and the partly covered terrace, which stretches across the entire width of the house, invites you to linger well into the evening. Additionally, the entire window front of the light-flooded conservatory can be opened or closed, allowing you to light the second fireplace there.

Designed by the renowned architect Günter Kusch and built in 1982 amid expansive, park-like gardens, the house offers absolute privacy in idyllic tranquility despite its excellent transport links (less than a 5-minute drive to the A57 motorway entrance). The adjacent 6-hectare Sollbrüggenpark, styled as an English landscape park with its country house—which now houses a music school—is regarded as one of the region’s most beautiful parks, making the well-maintained neighborhood one of the most sought-after residential areas, especially for families.

In addition to the convenient access via the A57 to Düsseldorf, Cologne, the Ruhr area, and the Netherlands, several bus and tram lines are nearby.

Krefeld’s main train station, as well as the DB stations in Krefeld-Oppum and Uerdingen, can all be reached in less than 10 minutes.

Düsseldorf International Airport (DUS) is reachable in under 15 minutes.

Within walking distance in the immediate vicinity, you will find a variety of restaurants, doctors, pharmacies, bakeries, cafés, a large swimming pool, sports facilities, fitness studios, the botanical garden, the Krefeld Zoo, gas stations, supermarkets, schools (including the Sollbrüggenschule right at the end of the private street), and kindergartens.

Throughout the house, only the highest-quality and most durable materials have been used. For instance, in many areas of the home, handcrafted, through-colored Cotto tiles from Italy have been installed to optimally radiate the warmth of the underfloor heating.

In addition to the upscale features listed below, there are several intriguing details, such as the historic basalt terrace tiles—some of which, upon closer inspection, reveal traces of old carriage wheels.
