Flat to rent 2+kk • 52 m² without real estateHolbeinstr. 4 Essen-Holsterhausen Holsterhausen Nordrhein-Westfalen 45147

Apartment on the raised ground floor (several steps in the stairwell) with its own large terrace overlooking the green garden.

The apartment offered here is located in a well-maintained multi-family house that is regularly serviced. The building’s exterior walls and attic are thermally insulated. In the attic area, tenants have the possibility to dry their own laundry. In the basement of the building, there is a gas central heating system that was renewed just a few weeks ago—this new energy-saving condensing boiler supplies heat to the entire house. In order to save further energy costs, all plastic windows were replaced a few months ago with energy-saving new three-pane plastic window elements. All energy measures to reduce energy costs have now been implemented in and on the house, so that the energy consumption certificate is no longer current as the values have drastically decreased due to these improvements. We have contributed, through multiple possible energy-saving measures, to dramatically lowering the energy costs. Only single-person households and one two-person household live in the building, which makes it a very quiet residence where dog ownership is not allowed. The windows are equipped with additional burglary protection measures rated RC2, and all windows and doors on the raised ground floor have shutters that were also renewed just a few months ago.

Holbeinstraße 4 is located in the popular Essen district of Holsterhausen. Holsterhausen combines the advantages of a small town with those of a big city. Gemarkenstraße, which borders directly on Holbeinstraße, is Holsterhausen’s small shopping street. All shops for everyday necessities can be found there. In addition to the bakery just around the corner, doctors and pharmacies are also located nearby. Public transport is accessible via Gemarkenplatz, which is less than a 5-minute walk away.

The on-ramps of highways A40 and A52 can be reached by car in approximately 3 and 6 minutes respectively. On foot, the University Hospital in Essen as well as the district and regional courts can quickly be reached.

The pictures shown here are of the neighboring apartment above; the floor plan is identical. However, in that apartment the builder-applied wooden plank floors were sanded down by the previous tenant and given a clear varnish finish. In the apartment available for rent, these plank floors are not left in their natural state, so it is recommended that tenants install their own carpet or laminate flooring. The currently existing laminate floors, however, have not yet been removed by the previous tenant and can therefore be retained.

The 2.5-room apartment, located on the raised ground floor of the multi-family house, is entirely equipped with colored varnished wooden plank floors (see note above) that are covered with laminate flooring, with the exception of the bathroom which is tiled. On the large terrace belonging to the apartment, there are also paving slabs. The bathroom is equipped with a bathtub, washbasin, and toilet. Additionally, there is space to place a washing machine; the necessary connections are available. The designated spot for the washing machine is next to the bathtub and is therefore not obtrusive. In the building’s basement there is a tenant-specific storage room. From the hallway, one can access the bathroom, bedroom, and living room. The kitchen is accessible from the living room and is located behind it. The kitchen and living room receive plenty of sunlight from noon onward. These rooms face the garden and are therefore absolutely quiet, even though Gemarkenstraße is directly adjacent. From the kitchen there is access to the terrace, which is also set into the quiet garden. The terrace measures about 17 m² and invites you to relax and linger—it is the highlight of the apartment. The bedroom is located on the Holbeinstraße side. From there, you have a view of the tree area of the churchyard across the street. All windows and doors have new shutters, and the new windows additionally feature burglary protection (RC2). The rear green garden is enclosed by a garden wall that separates it from neighboring properties, preventing unauthorized access. In the adjacent garden areas there are no commercial premises, making it a very quiet inner district where even squirrels feel at home due to the calm and green surroundings.

In the attic, there is still communal space available for drying the laundry of all residents. The apartment is roughly wallpapered with textured wallpaper, and the paintwork has not been altered in color by the previous tenant (everything is white).

Dog ownership is not allowed. The apartment is not suitable for shared living arrangements.

The rental is scheduled to begin on 01.02.2026.

The color of the tiles in the bathroom is as shown in the first bathroom picture—i.e., not as dark as in the other two pictures, which do not accurately reflect the true color.

Since the pictures are not complete and there are no images of the garden or terrace, it is advisable to schedule an on-site viewing to get a proper impression of the apartment. We are happy to assist you with this.
