Flat to rent 3+kk • 111 m² without real estateGronaustraße 35 Wuppertal Barmen Nordrhein-Westfalen 42285

This spacious duplex gallery apartment combines old-world charm with modern interior design – perfect for freelancers or creatives in need of space. Spread over two living levels with a total area of around 150 sqm, open-plan living, high-quality amenities and flexibility come together – ideal for creatives who seek focus, quiet and room for ideas, or for a small family.

Via the charming staircase you reach the attic apartment on the third floor of a listed historic building. The loft-like, hexagonal layout and an open gallery create a unique sense of space. Large, floor-to-ceiling windows with French balconies allow unobstructed views of the greenery.

A lowered, hexagonal midcentury-style living island forms the centerpiece of the apartment. Light Carrara marble flooring with underfloor heating, sliding screens in the style of Japanese shoji, white-plastered walls, and the elaborate lighting concept underline the elegant modernist design.

Towards Gronaustraße, a panoramic view over the valley opens up. Here, there is a dining area with built-in cabinets and a flexibly separable work or sleeping area. A walk-in dressing room as well as a separate bathtub bathroom with a window complete the space.

In the converted top floor, there is an open gallery, two smaller rooms with large dormer windows, and a compact shower room. Here an additional area of approximately 42 sqm is available for use.

A basement storage compartment and a small communal hillside garden (accessible from the ground floor) complete the apartment.

Conclusion: A rare offering for true design enthusiasts who want to live urban, enjoy peace and greenery, and express their individual lifestyle. However, due to the open living concept, the apartment is only suitable for 2 to 3 people.

Quiet yet right in the midst of Elberfeld and Barmen – a great residential location in Unterbarmen, in immediate proximity to a park (Hardt-Anlagen) – it takes just one minute to reach the forest. Gronaustraße is a popular residential street without through traffic and characterized by well-kept, listed Gründerzeit buildings. A friendly and quiet community and neighborhood. Free resident parking spaces are available in front of the house.

In 3 minutes, the Völklinger Straße suspended railway stop can be reached on foot, and the Unterbarmen train station in 10 minutes. Several supermarkets and restaurants are within walking distance. The Nordbahntrasse and motorway access can also be reached within a few minutes. Even for commuters, thanks to a fast connection to the main station, this is an interesting option.
