Historical City Hotel as a Top Investment Property!

This listed residential and commercial building with approximately 500 m² of usable space on a 500 m² plot is located in the center of Schleswig. The courtyard can be accessed by a small vehicle via a driveway secured by an easement. The oldest parts of this approximately 300-year-old building are registered as protected cultural monuments. This status provides significant tax depreciation opportunities and additional benefits such as potential direct grants or exemptions under the Energy Saving Act.

The ground floor is currently used as retail space. The upper and attic floors have largely been gutted, and in recent years, extensive preparatory work has been carried out throughout the building to convert it into holiday apartments/hotel rooms. Detailed drawings and comprehensive plans complete with cost estimates from a renowned architectural firm for the completion of the project are available and will be handed over to the buyer. An energy certificate is not available and is not required for listed buildings. The architect planning the construction is also an energy consultant, so the relevant energy-related measures have been incorporated into the planning. The property is situated in the part of the city center designated as a mixed residential/commercial area in the development plan; therefore, conversion to holiday apartments should be unconditionally approvable.

A complete conversion as planned could create up to 13 holiday apartments in the main building. There is certainly a demand for holiday apartments or hotel rooms in Schleswig, which can be regarded as disproportionately high.

The large and compact building with its accompanying plot also offers numerous other usage possibilities: if up to 9 holiday apartments with separate entrances are created on the upper and attic floors, the ground floor with its roughly 160 m² of usable space could either be used for barrier-free residential purposes or continue to be used as retail space. Additionally, an extra building could potentially be erected on the rear part of the plot or a courtyard garden could be established. Equally valuable in an inner-city location is the possibility of using the courtyard area easily for secure bicycle parking and for housing all waste disposal systems.

Due to the existing structure, it is likely that no parking space contribution fee will have to be paid to the city for this construction project.

If you are interested, we will gladly send a detailed description along with the essential documents.

For this, we require complete contact details (first name, last name, street, house number, postal code, city, email, and telephone number). Incomplete inquiries unfortunately cannot be processed.

Afterwards, we will gladly arrange a viewing appointment. Viewings without an appointment are expressly not desired.

Schleswig was first mentioned in 804 and is therefore considered one of the oldest cities in Northern Europe. Today, around 25,000 people live in the district town. The urban area is located directly on the Schlei, an arm of the Baltic Sea, and offers a wide variety of attractions for both culture and nature lovers as well as an above-average quality of life.

The property is located in an ideal area: whether it is the pedestrian zone, marina, old town, cafés, restaurants, and shopping facilities, the newly built district hospital, various medical practices, or the Stadtpark Königswiesen on the shores of the Schlei with a stunning view of the water and the seagull island – everything can be reached in just a few minutes on foot.

The city of Schleswig is directly accessible via the approximately 6 km distant A7 motorway, without causing any noise disturbance. Federal highways lead to cities such as Rendsburg, Flensburg, Husum, Eckernförde, and Kiel as well as to the North Sea coast, the Danish border, and the region's diverse nature and vacation attractions.

The train station is located about 2 km away in the Friedrichsberg district, served by several bus lines with nearby stops. Further, even overregional public transport connections are available at the central bus station (ZOB), which is only a few minutes’ walk from the property.

Cycling tourism is a significant factor in this region, with corresponding infrastructure, and bicycle traffic has increasingly been taken into account in Schleswig’s urban planning in recent times.

Schleswig’s location directly on the water is characterized not only by several marinas but also by several bathing beaches and many opportunities for water sports such as canoeing and stand-up paddling around the city.

The location of the entire property is several meters above sea level, so a flood risk from rising water or storm surges from the nearby Schlei can be ruled out.

The “Viking City Schleswig” is a museum location. It is mainly visited by tourists interested in history and Vikings, who combine museum visits with a stroll through the old town. These are primarily guests from all regions of Germany, but also frequently Scandinavians as well as visitors from many other parts of the world. The Viking Museum Haithabu, located nearby, is a magnet for visitors alongside the regional museums Schloss Gottorf and Schleswig Cathedral. In the future, the entire region is expected to receive significantly more attention due to its status as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
