House for sale 7+1 • 278 m² without real estate, North Rhine-Westphalia

The free-standing property on offer is located quietly in a cul-de-sac above the Rursee in the municipality of Simmerath. The building is in like-new condition and, thanks to its floor plan, is perfect not only for a larger family but also as a multi-generational home or a luxurious holiday residence just 400 m from the lake—with the option to purchase a mooring spot for a sailing yacht.

The house was built in 1994 as a combination of modern prefabricated construction and traditional solid construction (stone upon stone), with an ancillary apartment. With a current living area of approximately 278 m², no desire is left unfulfilled. On the ground floor, you will find an entrance hall, a guest WC, a kitchen with a storage room, a spacious living room, and an integrated, light-filled bay window dining or work area. A soapstone stove in the living room provides pleasant warmth during the colder months, which also radiates into the kitchen. The terrace accessible from here is oriented to the west and can be shaded with a sail awning. Here, you can enjoy the sun to the fullest and escape the stresses of everyday life. A modern wooden staircase leads you to the upper floor with three generous bedrooms and a comfortable, fully equipped bathroom with daylight.

Another highlight of this unique property is the ancillary apartment in the basement area on the slope. It features a separate entrance and direct access to the garden but can also be reached internally via the staircase. On this level, there is a kitchen, a second bathroom with exclusive fittings, and a large living/sleeping area offering versatile usage potential, whether for owner-occupation or rental purposes. In the basement area, you will also find an attractive hobby room of about 35 m² under the garage (which can also be used for residential purposes), a bicycle cellar, a boiler room, a storage room, and a laundry room.

The outdoor facilities have been intentionally designed to be low-maintenance and are equipped with two robotic lawn mowers. A large double garage with an electric sectional door and a high-quality fence with an electric rolling gate complete this first-class offer. The fitted kitchens are included in this offer.

The center of Simmerath with the bus station and connections to the surrounding centers as well as other infrastructural facilities is only a few kilometers away and quickly accessible.

The property is situated on an attractive hillside in Simmerath, only about 400 m from the shoreline of the Rursee.

The Eifel region captivates with its natural, tranquil setting and is a paradise for sailors, hikers, cyclists, water sports and outdoor enthusiasts. At the same time, the location in Simmerath offers excellent infrastructure with numerous everyday shops, supermarkets, bakeries, and pharmacies that ensure a comfortable supply.

Medical care is also excellent: The regionally renowned St. Brigida Hospital in Simmerath provides comprehensive outpatient and inpatient services at a high level. This is complemented by a wide range of general practitioners and specialists, ensuring reliable outpatient care.
