Here is the English translation of the text:

It is a very spacious four-room apartment on the first upper floor of an imposing Jugendstil building, which was constructed at the Fin de Siècle in solid masonry. The magnificent façade features well-preserved original style elements. It is a purely residential building, with one apartment on each of its four floors. The exterior walls, which were typical for the time and are especially massive, ensure a temperate indoor climate even on hot summer days and, at the same time, provide excellent thermal insulation during the heating season. The apartment has a relatively favorable energy consumption rating for an existing building; the heating costs are correspondingly low and currently amount to approximately EUR 120 per month. The ceiling height of about 3 meters gives the apartment a spacious character. From the entrance hall, you can access the living, sleeping, and children's or study room, the cloakroom, as well as the guest WC. The separate dining room connects the kitchen with the living room. From the kitchen, you can access the daylight bathroom and a practical storage or pantry room. All rooms, with the exception of the storage room, have large windows, so the apartment is literally bathed in light.

The residential building is located on a quiet side street (with one-way traffic) of the Karlsruhe pedestrian zone, about 150 meters walking distance from Europaplatz, in the heart of the city. The infrastructure is accordingly first-class. Not only everyday shops, but also specialty stores of all kinds are reachable on foot. The same applies to doctors, pharmacies, schools, kindergartens, restaurants, cafés, ice cream parlors, cinemas, museums, art galleries, fitness studios, etc. The Botanical Garden, State Art Hall, and the adjoining castle garden can be reached in just six minutes on foot. The recreational value is immense. The university is only 1.4 km away and is reachable in a quarter of an hour on foot. Almost all tram lines run along Kaiserstraße, so many more distant destinations in the PAMINA region are accessible without changing trams. The appeal of the Karlsruhe pedestrian zone has recently been greatly enhanced by the relocation of the tram line underground (U-Strab). On the street section in front of the building and also in the surrounding area, residents’ parking is available for a moderate annual fee of currently €180 (residents’ parking permit B3).

As part of an extensive modernization, the bathroom, the central heating system, and the building’s technical equipment were completely renewed. The almost new fitted kitchen features an electric stove with a ceramic hob and oven, an extractor hood, a side-by-side refrigerator/freezer combination, a dishwasher, a stainless steel sink, two worktops, as well as various base and wall cabinets. The daylight bathroom is equipped with a bathtub, washbasin, washing machine, and clothes dryer and is tiled up to the door height all around. The living areas are laid with beech parquet, while the kitchen, bathroom, and WC feature granite. An air conditioner is available for cooling. Digital, internet-capable HDTV cable television is provided with up to 1,000 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload. A fiber optic connection has been commissioned and will soon be available. The apartment also includes a spacious basement storage unit. Bicycles can be conveniently and securely parked under a canopy in the inner courtyard. The jewel of the property is the idyllic garden, which can be used and designed by the residents as they wish. If needed, play equipment and a sandbox can also be set up here.

The apartment is offered directly by the owner, so no broker’s commission applies. Natural gas for heating and hot water is billed directly with the provider. The specified monthly heating cost corresponds to the current prepayment to the municipal utilities.
