House for sale • 377 m² without real estate, Rhineland-Palatinate

A house with history, heart, and future – right by the Rhine. This charming residential and commercial building from 1900 combines historical substance with modern development and a touch of gastronomic romance.

On approximately 377 m² of total area (of which about 153 m² is living space) unfolds a true original: five floors, spacious rooms, thoughtful details – and a private, non-visible rooftop terrace of about 20 m², half of which is covered. There is hardly a more private way to enjoy city living.

Particularly striking is the hand-painted façade with historic illustrations – an artistic testimony to the past as a beloved wine tavern. For decades, the iconic restaurant “Zum Geschwollenen Herz” was housed here, well known and loved far beyond the city limits. Currently, the gastronomic operation has ceased; most of the inventory has been removed – a perfect fresh start with a strong name.

The property has been continuously modernized in recent years:

• 2022 – Bathroom in the residential area completely modernized

• 2018 – First floor (former dining room) renovated

• 2015 – New gas central heating system

• 2014 – Roof renewal, high-quality development of the attic including rooftop terrace

A special extra: There is the possibility to add at least one additional full floor (subject to official approval) – perfect for even more space, vision, or yield.

Whether creative multi-generational living, a charming townhouse, or a return to gastronomy with history:

Here begins a new chapter.

Bingen am Rhein – where the river writes history and life pulses between vineyards, culture, and city flair. Right here, in direct view of the Rhine, stands this unique property – with a view of nature and within walking distance of the old town.

The location offers everything that makes life pleasant:

• Bingen Stadt train station is only a few minutes away – with a direct connection to Mainz, Frankfurt, Koblenz, and Wiesbaden. The central station with long-distance connections is also quickly reachable.

• The motorways A60 and A61 are nearby, ideal for commuters.

The infrastructure convinces: supermarkets, doctors, pharmacies, schools, daycares, cafés – all within walking distance. In addition, the charming old town flair and the popular Rhine promenade are just around the corner.

Whether it’s a wine festival, cultural riverside event, the Rhine Cycle Path, or theater – Bingen offers a high quality of life with a vibrant cultural heartbeat. A place that connects: history & the present, nature & the city, work & relaxation.

For gastronomy, living, or holiday concepts, the location offers unbeatable advantages – also for investors. The combination of proximity to the river, a downtown location, and charm makes this address a true jewel on the Middle Rhine.

Here, not only potential resides – life is in full swing.

This extraordinary property from 1900 combines historical charm with great potential and diverse usage possibilities. It operated for decades as the traditional restaurant “Zum Geschwollenen Herz” and still enjoys an excellent reputation in the region. The entirely hand-painted façade tells the story of a former wine tavern and makes the building a real eye-catcher in the townscape of Bingen am Rhein.

The house spans five floors and offers a well-thought-out combination of residential and commercial spaces. On the ground floor as well as on the first floor are spacious dining rooms that are ideal for gastronomic uses, a wine bar, or creative business ideas. Thanks to the existing layout, the spaces can also be converted into offices, consultation rooms, or studio spaces.

The living areas on the upper floors provide a comfortable home with flexible usage possibilities. Particularly noteworthy is the developed attic, which serves as a spacious living and dining area, complemented by an approximately 20 m² rooftop terrace offering all-around protected privacy – ideal for relaxed moments outdoors or as an urban retreat in the heart of the city.

The equipment combines historical elements with modern comfort. Large windows ensure bright rooms, wooden elements, and traditional details create a warm atmosphere. Despite the charming old building character, many technical and energy-related fundamentals have already been renewed.

A special highlight is the possibility to add an additional floor, thereby creating more living or usable space – a significant advantage for investors and creative buyers planning for the long term.

Most of the restaurant inventory is no longer present, giving future owners the freedom to develop a new concept from scratch and to further evolve the character of the building according to their own ideas.

With its unique mix of history, charm, location, and expansion potential, this house is not only an attractive investment object but also a unique opportunity for visionary people who wish to revive a piece of regional history or implement a modern usage concept in the heart of Bingen.
