Features:

The stylish apartment is located on the 3rd floor of a 7-unit building and is equipped throughout to a high standard – for example: American cherry wood parquet flooring, a modern, very comfortable bathroom with a curbless shower, (electric) underfloor heating, towel radiators, high-quality designer tiles by Porcelanosa, natural stone flooring, Duravit bathroom furniture and a bathtub (Duravit Starck 3 sanitary fixtures) from 2015, as well as an additional guest WC. An air conditioning system with three indoor units from 2022 always ensures a pleasant room climate, and generously sized triple-glazed windows with UV and heat protection provide an energy-efficient, even more beautiful view. The chic fitted kitchen – complete with all desirable appliances and natural stone countertops – is available at no extra charge, the roof terrace with space for four offers a dream view, fiber-optic connectivity is available in the building, and the new gas heating system from 2024 ensures more efficient heating and low ancillary costs.

This very bright and spacious home – spread over five beautiful rooms with approximately 143 m² of total space – is located in the upper area of Lelei. In the sought-after district of Heisingen, the apartment is almost centrally located between the charming town center and the ever-popular Baldeneysee. Heisingen is a gem on the Ruhr, nestled between the lake and the forest in what is known as Heisingen “upper village”. Everyone talks about the importance of a property’s location – here you have a top location in one of Essen’s most popular districts! In addition, highway connections in the direction of surrounding metropolitan areas such as Düsseldorf, Cologne, and the Bergisches Land are only a few minutes away. The lakeshore, with all its amenities and high recreational value, can be reached on foot in just a few minutes.

Heisingen has retained its almost village-like charm and offers within walking distance everything needed for daily life (three supermarkets, several bakeries – even open on Sundays –, specialty stores, restaurants, etc.) as well as kindergartens, daycare centers, primary schools, and school buses that serve all the important schools in southern Essen. Leisure and relaxation opportunities are certainly not lacking here either! All in all, it is an ideal district in which to feel at home. With a bus stop just about 100 meters away, you can easily reach the Essen city center or the popular RÜ after a short ride, and all the important cultural facilities are accessible even without a car.

Living and Usable Space:

Approximately 121 m² plus roughly 22 m² of livable, developed “usable space” on the studio level, bringing the total to about 143 m² of living and usable space, plus additional usable areas. A spacious basement room is part of the apartment, and dedicated spaces for a washing machine, dryer, and clothes rack are available. Want to store your bicycle? No problem – a bicycle storage room is also provided.

The final images of the rooms show how they can look when filled with new life.

Year Built / Condition / Energy Certificate:

Originally built in 1994, the apartment has been extensively modernized to a high standard in many areas (all windows, flooring, sanitary facilities, and partly the electrical wiring) and is ready to move in. All standard windows (including gable windows) have been replaced with triple-glazed windows with additional UV protection. An energy certificate (consumption certificate) dated November 20, 2020, is available (it still lists the 1994 gas heating system), with an energy efficiency rating of class D. Please note that the replacement of the heating system in 2024 (including a hydraulic balancing of the entire system in the building) and the already completed installation of energy-efficient windows throughout the apartment and other units have not yet been reflected in this energy certificate. The original roof windows were replaced a few years ago with high-quality, spacious Velux light strips, which allow more light into the two corresponding rooms and ensure a beautiful view outside. The street-facing windows of the entire condominium have been replaced with energy-efficient triple-glazed windows; only the kitchen window still needs to be replaced. The operating costs for an apartment of this size are very low, and the weekly cleaning of the stairwell, the maintenance of the front gardens, and the winter service are already included in the maintenance fees.

Layout:

The apartment is part of a small condominium association consisting of only 15 residential units spread over two buildings.

Entrance Level: A spacious entrance/dining area awaits you, filled with plenty of light and boasting a breathtaking view. The open-plan dining area offers ample space for a large dining table. A staircase leads to the upper level, and there is also a guest WC and an exit to the roof terrace.

Loft-Style Living Area: Connected in a loft style, the living area features floor-to-ceiling gable glazing (with a 4-meter ceiling height), a magnificent green view, and a genuine loft feel.

Studio Level: This level features a gallery area with an almost floor-to-ceiling window (ideal for a home office). The gallery opens up to an approximately 22 m² room (with air conditioning), which is legally developed as “usable space” rather than living space. Like all the other rooms, this area is of high quality and fully equipped, with the only distinction being its legal classification.

I could write so much more about the apartment... but why not see for yourself? And as is customary when selling without an agent, you save on high commissions!
