Flat for sale 3+kk • 88 m² without real estateErlangen Erlangen Bayern 91054

The 87.05‑sqm apartment on the second floor is the largest unit in a multi-family building at Hauptstr. 117 in Erlangen’s old town.

The building’s entrance and the north side of the apartment face the historic city wall and the seldom-used North Stadtmauerstr. in the historic “Saugraben.” Its south side overlooks quaint, densely built courtyards and old town rooftops with a view of the tower of the old town church.

Thus, despite its central location, the apartment remains quiet.

Its 87.05 sqm are divided into

a functional hallway,

a small bathroom with a bathtub and no window,

a small kitchen, and

a larger children’s room, each with windows offering an unobstructed view of the Burgberg toward the north;

and to the south,

a spacious bedroom and

a large living room with a small, open study,

each with large terrace windows opening out onto a generous, virtually private roof terrace with views of old town houses, rooftops, and the church tower.

The apartment also comes with an underground parking space and an attic storage unit on the same level.

There are washing and drying rooms and a bicycle cellar available for communal use.

In the current layout of the apartment, the room sizes gradually fan out toward the roof terrace, which serves as a light and view center for the generous bedroom and the large living room.

If a spatial enhancement of the kitchen and bathroom is desired, this could be achieved easily, as the north-side rooms have non– or only minimally load-bearing walls that are part of the designable special property. With greater, yet feasible effort, the small study could also be transformed into an open-plan kitchen, which in turn would allow for a larger bathroom with a window.

The apartment’s flexible use makes it suitable for singles, couples, parents with a child, or two-person shared apartments.

Its location directly along the medieval city wall in Erlangen’s old town is unbeatable.

Within a 10-minute walk, all daily amenities are available as well as upscale restaurants, student bars with local character, the city museum, art palace, theater, E-Werk cultural center, and other vibrant cultural venues, the Regnitzgrund—and the locally mythical “Berg” with its historic beer cellars and beer gardens. By bicycle or public transport, you’re “in the countryside” in just 15 minutes.

Healthcare is excellently provided, and the reputation of the university hospital is outstanding.

The next stop of Erlangen’s free public transport is no more than 200 meters away, and the main train station is within one kilometer.

Daycare centers as well as primary and secondary schools are also nearby and accessible without a car.

By car, you can reach the A73 in less than one kilometer, which in turn quickly connects you to junctions in all directions.

For the “Saugraben” on the north side of the apartment, a further enhancement has been planned following its renovation in 2024: vehicular traffic will be minimized, additional trees will be planted alongside the existing ones, and paved surfaces will be replaced with natural stone pavers and de-sealed—thus creating an attractive, green urban space at the only remaining segment of the 15th-century city wall, right at the doorstep of the apartment.

Erlangen itself is “small-town” on a global scale. This seeming contradiction arises from its Huguenot-style architecture, its location on the northern edge of the "metropolitan region"—from where one can, by bicycle heading north, quickly escape into the charming rural Franconian landscape with excellent gastronomy, or head south via superb public and rapid transit connections to experience the nearby cities of Fürth, with its intimate atmosphere, and Nürnberg, a large city.

But above all, it comes from its population: unpretentious natives, polyglots, well-off Siemens employees, and above all many young and some seasoned university affiliates of various fields coexist in perfect harmony, as this blend has grown organically.

Equally pleasing and paradoxical: Erlangen is both very lively and very safe.

We offer the apartment unadorned, with bare walls and in a clean state. No wide-angle lenses, filters, or AI enhancements were used for the photos. Likewise, we are not adjusting the purchase price to account for the estimated costs we did not invest in cosmetic measures such as patching, wallpapering, painting, sanding the floors, or pressure washing the terrace slabs.

We believe you will form your own ideas and are happy to arrange longer or even multiple viewings so that you can develop your own concept.

Technically, the apartment is ready to move into.

The laundry rooms in the basement are meticulously maintained.

The “cellar room” for this apartment is an attic storage unit located on the same floor.

A few additional details in standard print:

There is no elevator. Although the staircase is of high-quality and charming, spacious and bright, it could be better maintained. Additionally, the underground parking space, due to its duplex design, is unsuitable for some vehicle models.
