Below is the English translation of the text:

This property is a true eye-catcher. Thanks to an extensive modernization in 2014 – during which the entire outdoor area was also professionally redesigned – this exceptional property has been given a completely new shine.

From the entrance area, you can go left into the living/dining area with a modern fireplace, straight ahead into the kitchen, and to the right to the upper floor, the basement, and the corridor. The ground floor is surrounded by a huge south-facing L-shaped terrace that can be accessed both from the living/dining room and the kitchen. The terrace is covered by a glass roof on the side facing the street, which is equipped with an electric awning.

The large ground floor bedroom is located opposite the spacious daylight bathroom with a large trapezoidal corner bathtub. In addition, it features a large, level, open shower with a rainforest showerhead, a large washbasin with a two-sink unit and a vanity cabinet, and a toilet. Adjacent to this is the guest WC (with daylight) and a utility room.

Via the oak staircase you reach the upper floor, where you will be welcomed in the lounge with its dreamy view of both the near and distant surroundings.

To the left of the lounge, you enter another large and wonderfully light-filled bedroom with a ceiling that reaches all the way to the ridge. This room includes a walk-in closet and a decorative fireplace.

On the right side of the lounge there are two additional rooms, which can be used individually (currently serving as an office and a guest room). In the daylight bathroom on the upper floor there is also a large, open, level shower with a rainforest showerhead, a washbasin including a vanity cabinet, and a toilet.

The spacious balcony with an outdoor fireplace can be accessed from three rooms (lounge, bedroom, office).

The property also features a large private observatory, accessible via the office. The observatory is currently not in operation.

The house is fully basemented. In the boiler room, besides the condensing gas boiler, there is an 800-liter layered storage tank with a solar heat exchanger and an injection system for the tiled stove. The basement also provides access to the garage.

The property is located in a beautiful, quiet elevated residential area in a 30 km/h zone in Overath with a stunning distant view over the Rhine valley. In the immediate vicinity you will find riding stables and forests that invite you to a variety of leisure activities.

- Kindergarten: a 3-minute walk away

- Primary schools in Heiligenhaus, Steinenbrück, and Immekeppel; secondary schools in Overath, Bensberg, and Herkenrath

- Daily shopping facilities approximately 2.5 km away

- Very good transport connections (5 minutes by car to the A4 motorway) to Cologne and Gummersbach, 24 km to Cologne’s city center, and 20 km to Cologne/Bonn Airport

The neighborhood consists predominantly of single-family houses.

Originally, the house was built as a one-story building in 1962. Around 1969 the garage was added, and around 1973 the house was expanded upward and a dome was built, which in the past was used as an observatory.

The following renovation work was carried out in 2014:

The house is equipped with a modern gas heating system from the company Wolf featuring condensing technology. The 5 solar collectors on the roof and the fireplace with a water jacket from Hark can significantly support the hot water supply.

All electrical, gas, water, and sanitary installations were completely renewed. The bathrooms are equipped with underfloor heating. In the rest of the house, new radiators with completely new piping were installed at that time.

Furthermore, a completely new electrical installation was installed. This includes plenty of well-placed, some switchable, power outlets. In addition, new network and television connections were installed in every room.

Throughout the house, including one roof window, new white plastic windows and balcony doors with thermal insulation glass in a mullion design and electric roller shutters were installed.

The house was largely floored with high-quality oak parquet. In the entrance area as well as in the utility room, large-format, anthracite-colored stone tiles were laid. The entrance door and the interior doors were also renewed. The entrance area is further enhanced by the beautiful, new two-tone oak staircase leading to the upper floor.

The wooden ceiling in the cozy living room dates back to the year of construction.

The property was also provided with external insulation, including new exterior rendering and painting.

The floors of the terrace and balcony are fitted with wood panels. The railings and the outdoor staircase to the garden complete the appearance. The garage door was also renewed.

In 2021, part of the basement was newly sealed from the outside. During this work, the garbage area on the property was also renewed.

On the property, in addition to the garage, there are three further parking spaces and a garden shed.

The property has a very good internet connection, which is available from various providers, such as NetCologne with 250 Mbit/s. Combined with the network cabling, this property is at a very high technological level.
