House for sale 5+1 • 174 m² without real estate, North Rhine-Westphalia

Almost all rooms of the house are filled with light. In the colder and darker seasons, a fireplace in the living/dining room creates a feeling of well-being. The house was partially remodeled inside 5 years ago and almost completely renovated. The design of the living areas is timeless and high quality. Ideally, just a touch of color is needed to give the ambiance the desired, personal style. In spring, summer, and autumn the spacious terrace becomes an extension of the living room. Thanks to the beautiful hedges, you can relax undisturbed in the garden or grill with friends.

MICRO LOCATION – Around the House

• The absolute southern orientation brings light into the rooms in both summer and winter. This means that even in the darker months the living room enjoys pleasant daylight. From here you have a view into the expansive garden with an unobstructed view of a forest grove, which can be easily reached through the garden gate. The tall trees are distant enough that even in winter the sun peeks over the treetops, while still providing protection when the wind blows hard. The Rodebach stream flows through the grove, and its banks invite you to take long walks or go cycling.

• The opposite side provides an unobstructed view over the low-lying road onto a wide, park-like green strip that is always well maintained by the city. In summer the sun even peeks onto the house on the street/north side in the mornings and evenings.

• On the east side is the entrance to the house. Here you find a generous, drivable passage to the garden.

• The west side is barely visible from the street or otherwise. There, a container is used for extra storage of gardening tools. A brick wall or beech hedge marks the boundary with the neighboring property.
